FLStudio Guru - Sidechaining Video Lecture | FL Studio: Become an Expert (English) - Video & Sound Editing

from today we're going to look at
sidechaining in the FL Studio mixer side
chains are simply extra audio inputs to
a plug-in they're not usually audible
but control some parameter of the effect
the most common use of side chains is to
pump or duck the volume of a mixer track
in response to audio in another and
that's what we're going to do today with
the fruity limiter duck a pad sound a
sustained chord with a kick side
chaining in the mixer is associated with
the audio send switches and volume
controls when you make any send link
between tracks you're also making a
sidechain send the difference between a
sidechain send and an audio sin is
simply the position of the send valium
knob if it's at zero then it's a
sidechain only if it's not zero and it's
both an audio and a sidechain send the
right click options on the send switches
are really just macros that set the
volume knob for you
let's sidechain the kick in this project
to free delimiters compressor section
yes freely limiters also a compressor
and a gate bonus
so add fruity limiter to the track that
needs ducting then select the sidechain
track the kick in this case and right
click the send selector on the limiters
track and select sidechain to this track
use the sidechain only to this track if
you don't want the sidechain audio to be
heard this deselects the source tracks
master send I'm also going to sidechain
the Hat sound to the limiter so we have
several choices in the next step and
also to demonstrate that it's possible
to route as many sidechain sources as
you want to any track let's see how that
sounds ok not much is happening and
nothing will happen until you select the
sidechain source in the sidechain
selector and set a compression threshold
notice as soon as I touch this the blue
trace now appears that's the kicks
volume envelope and finally set a
compression ratio
now we're pumpkin
so that's it the steps are one side
China makes a track to uploading except
side chains to select the sidechain in
the plug-in and three make adjustments
as required to make use of the sidechain
in this case the threshold and
compression ratio settings I think I
might continue working on this track and
starting to like it
anyway see you next time
