Best Way To Sidechain in FL Studio!

This tutorial will show you how to sidechain in FL Studio 20. Sidechaining is one of the most important mixing tools available to you as a music producer. Sidechaining is essential to create space for your kick and bass in the mix. Without sidechaining, your mix will often end up sounding muddy and muffled. So what exactly is sidechaining? Sidechaining is basically volume ducking. It ensures that various elements in the mix duck in volume and gets out of the way so that the kick and bass can cut through the mix without problems.
If you want to learn mixing and mastering, sidechaining is something you need to know how to use and set up, and in this video I will show you several different ways to set up and use sidechaining in FL Studio 20. The first method I will show you is how to set up and use old-school sidechain compression using a compressor. This is the correct way to use sidechaining, and it will work on anything, no matter what kind of kick pattern you use. I will also show you how to set up sidechaining using plugins such as LFOtool, grossbeat etc. These plugins basically emulate sidechaining by utilizing automated volume ducking. This works well as long as you use a standard four to the floor beat. However, it won't work on more advanced rhythms, for that you'll need real sidechaining with a compressor and a trigger.
Sidechaining is relatively easy to set up and use in FL Studio, and this video will show you how to do it, as well as explain shortly what sidechaining is and why we use it.
Note: I recommend that you use a dedicated sidechain trigger for your sidechaining, instead of the main kick. In that case, you need to make sure that the trigger pattern is an exact duplicate of the kick pattern at all times, or else the sidechaining won't match your main kick, which is the whole point.
