Ableton/Live/UG/29 Audio Effect Reference/21 Glue Compressor/01 Sidechain Parameters
- The title bar button unfolds the sidechain controls.
- Left, external: Sidechain picks any internal routing point as the trigger. Gain sets trigger level only (never heard); Dry/Wet mixes sidechain and own signal as the trigger.
- Right, sidechain EQ: triggers from one frequency band, of this track or the external source.
- The headphones button between them plays only the sidechain signal.
- Oversampling — processes at twice the sample rate to reduce aliasing and harsh transients, for slightly more CPU. Output may then exceed 0 dB even with Soft clip on.
