   Hi Producers,

Following on from the video of compression techniques yesterday, we 
thought it would be great to include a video on sidechain compression.
Side chain compression is a typical technique used in dance music. 
You can use it to duck sounds from a side chain trigger such as bass, 
pads, leads, sweeps etc.
A typical example would be when the kick is triggered it would duck 
the bass making the kick punch through the mix. The trigger could also 
come from a drum loop over a pad for example. It is a very easy 
technique to set up, although this video is for Logic the same 
principles apply for all other compressors with a sidechain input 
including real outboard compressors. Try experimenting.
