Description

I’m a huge fan of sidechaining a compressor to a four-on-the-floor kick drum. It’s a useful mixing tool to keep heavy synths out of the way of a heavy kick, but it also makes everything just so dang danceable. Pulling up multiple tracks and setting the compressor to receive input from a “ghost kick” is pretty time consuming, however, especially in a live scenario.

Enter pump, a no-nonsense way to get authentic-sounding sidechain compression with absolutely no set up. All you have to do is load the device and get pumping! From there you can easily customize the shape of the envelope and amount of gain reduction with simple controls.

    Love this, used it for pretty much every project since I discovered it a year or two ago. Unfortunately the Curve knob no longer works as intended with Live 10. Curve no longer is continuous but works with only three different static positions (max, min, and linear). I have tried fixing it myself but I'm useless with Max. :P

    @electrodaimon I think i managed to fix this by changing the "unit style" on the live.dial for curve from Int to Float
