Anybody want to tell me how in the world to do this in Cubase? For instance - I have a Slate drum part that I haven't broken out...because I'm getting a good sound form the Slate mixer and just don't want to bother breaking it out. How do you set up a side chain that only effects from say - 125 Hz and up? That way I could crush the drumbus with a 1176 and mix it in, but leave the kick alone. Guess I could just leave the kick in, though.

Set up a mult with the compressor and blend it with the dry. Just duplicate the track, put the compressor on it and set it however you want it and then blend those together.

can't you just create a Bus that has an EQ on it that filters out everything below 200hz and then stick your compressor afterwards and send as needed? isn't that how they did Parallel Compression back in the day?

Why don't DAWs put wet/dry knobs in all their plug-in slots?

Why don't DAWs put wet/dry knobs in all their plug-in slots? Reaper does. I use it all the time, it's actually a thing I forgot about cause I use it so often. Usually much nicer than automating bypass automation too, as it can avoid buffer clicks.

But that doesn't accomplish what I wanted...I wanted to filter out the kick... Right... you don't want the kick compressed... so in the raw track it won't be. Give it a try, I like it better than using the SC on a comp, sounds more natural to me. The way that I look at things these days is they've made it easier to accomplish what I'm describing, but, if you want to use a certain compressor that doesn't offer that you'll have to revert back to the old ways.

What if you...
Mult to 3 stereo tracks.
First is untouched, output to 2bus.
2nd gets a hp filter plug set where you want it, then output to bus 1 and 2 (no 2bus)
3rd gets the compressor with bus 1 and 2 as the sidechain. Output to 2bus and blend with original.
With adc in protools, phase shouldnt be a problem. Not sure about cubase, but if it gets weird you could put both the eq and the comp in all mults and just bypass where you dont need them.

With that said, Uad should add some friggin mix knobs The mk2 1176s are probably the best plugin comps ive heard so far.

Perhaps you need a pair of these, as they have Wet/Dry right on 'em!

Why don't DAWs put wet/dry knobs in all their plug-in slots? I believe FL Studio does.

Myself and other UA endorsees have been begging for years, but it was made clear that their philosophy was to recreate the real gear. However, we were successful in getting them to add it to the newer Fairchild emulation. You may find my presets in that one where I take full advantage of that feature. We'll keep trying!

Please do...you'd think they could put it as a hidden feature...
BTW - why in the hell won't they do the 176?
