Very cool! I mostly use the signal follower to “side-chain”, which works but it can be a hassle to get it to behave the way I want. I tried the keytracking method once and didn’t get it to work. Suspect that might have been due to it receiving the same data over and over again. Gonna try that random input. Thanks MrZensphere!
hey clever use of the doofer. I think you don't need to use it though. If you set the destination min and max to zero, it'll always set LFO reset to the 0. I send the LFO output to a hydra and then that hydra controls the gainers across different tracks.
Yep that works too, but the advantage of the doofer reset macro is that you can drop the doofer wherever you want and don't have to redo the lfo to gainer routing, just point the hydra at the doofer. A little faster for me :) Especially if you're using multiple destinations
@@MrZensphere I see, that makes sense. I think I could compare the two by saying your method gives you extremely fine control over the sidechain curve per track and the one I typically use gives you a single master curve to control and is good if you don't experiment with that often. That said, I think I will try yours as an addition and to get some creative sidechaining on some tracks
CAN NEVER HAVE ENOUGH SIDECHAIN METHODS! haha.. but personally I prefer the signal follower => (inverse) gain! It's effective, controllable, simple, doesn't require plugins.
I hear you, and I have used that method as well, the problem I run into with it is the inflexible ducking curve. I find using the midi to trigger an envelope just yields so many more possibilities. But, whatever works for you is always the best method :)
@@MrZensphere totally understand. your style of music has a big focus on the bd/bass interplay, precision is very important then. I usually make more housey grooves, so it's okay to be a bit more messy :D
Glad to see you back! Your videos have helped me a lot.
Hey, great! Glad if they're useful 👽
This is a really cool trick!
Good to sidechain filters or other fx as well for creative results

i love watching your videos, always learn something new :)

Man what is this interface my eyes
It's ok, not everyone can handle it 😜
Dude, you have an ugly Renoise, but thanks for the cool video.
