NEW SIDECHAIN PLUG

Okay so i was in the studio with Big Gigantic and he showed me his sidechain process. its basically the same as what weve been doing but with a plug in that allows audio to trigger a volume shaper. and its incredibly simple. no more mirroring MIDI to your kicks. Just route your kick to the plug in and youre good to go. ive been wanting this for so long lol

This is my personal favorite and goated

I could be missing something but if you click the little band button and adjust the slider (underneath the mix knob in the bottom left) it ducks frequencies below what the slider is set to

Andrew G

Yeah you can do that on shaper box! But not in kickstart.

BLANKE

Not sure if it’s exactly what you meant with the multi band thing but the little band button and slider in the bottom left lets you control what frequencies are sidechained. For example if you press band and set the slider to 200hz everything below 200 is sidechained to the kick and everything above isn’t sidechained if that makes sense

Andrew G

Apparently I needa do some digging. But seems rly straightforward on this

BLANKE

Wait can't this be done in shaperbox?

King of H3arts

you can do this in shaperbox?? frig okay i gotta look into that properly too then

BLANKE

Shaperbox can be triggered same way. But still use kickstart for simplicity. Also depending on the length of kick you sometimes wanna adjust accordingly. 100 agree the midi is annoying haha

I’m so stoked to try this out!

Sometimes it works and takes 10 seconds to set up which just feels great but sometimes it’s not clean enough i find

not that i know of?!

BLANKE

hahahhaha NO ONE TOLD ME!! u holding out on me man

BLANKE

ohhh really? hmm, dont the curves cut the transients?

BLANKE

I’ve been using this for a while but recently went back to the midi trigger, since it leaves some stuff at the transient and it’s distorting sometimes :/

Zsombor Deményi

I’ve been doing this since it came out lmao 😂 I always wondered why you did it the hard way but fr this thing is a god send

Caslow

Can’t shaperbox do that too?

I'd be curious to see what your thoughts are on Kickstart 2 versus this: https://robertkgm.gumroad.com/l/gma-duck It's a M4L Ableton Plugin I was recently introduced to, in a similar price range. Not sure if u have heard of it before but seems to follow a similar concept & I deff dig it. Would love to hear ur thoughts on it in comparison!

sick aye!

gamechanger hollyyyy

I’ve been doing it this way from the start. I always loved the way it grabbed the audio instead of having to put in the midi pattern!

Joe

looks sick! gonna try this
