So nice to see they added audio input to this. Worth the £5 upgrade price for me. Think it is around £16 full price.

HI Popey,

I've just bought it to give a try and maybe you can help me with that plugin as i saw you were already using it :
in Reason Studio 12 (it works) but to connect it to the sidechain input for audio triggering, i couldn't find a way to make it work properly and even didn't find any informations about it on internet... Even if i know there are a bunch of different ways to do sidechaining in Reason (i was interested on the mix/ band options with visual monitoring) i would really appreciate to make this plugin work in my daw ;)-

Please let me know if you can find a way to connect it to the sidechain for audio triggering in Reason Studio 12 ? (for example a kick over a bass )

Thanks for your help,

Lion

Hi Lion,

I must admit I use live as my daw but tried it in Reason 11 and could get it to work. You need to flip to the back of the rack on kickstart 2 to open up the optional in (press cv programmer)(there will be 2 lit up green). Add a spider and route from redrum, kong etc to splitter and then from spider to optional ins. See attached images

Don't own kickstart but with a lot of plugins and also effect inside reason you can trigger the effect by playing it inside a combi with the instrument. In the combi programmer select the device and set it to receive notes. Most effects are off by default. Some other vsts have a input drop-down menu like external input for example and then connect it to the 3-4 input on the back

I have devious Duck for ducking. I understand they are meant to provide more control and smoother ducking, but I usually like how Reasons SSL sidechain sounds, and it’s quicker too

No worries, glad you got it working. I think it is a very quick and useful fx, especially now you can trigger with audio
