Quick start

duck a bass in under a minute.

  1. Put it on the track you want to duck, like a bass or a pad, and pick a preset. 16 come built in, like Bass under kick and Pad pump 1/4.
  2. Key it from the kick. Open your DAW's sidechain input on the plugin and pick the kick track.
  3. No kick yet? Flip Trigger to Tempo and pick a rate. It ducks in time with the host.
  4. Turn up Link and choose a band to duck. The width moves with the pump.
