Concerning the JACK connections, I'm aware that those can become illegible at lower resolutions. But then one can ask the question, is that the uploader's fault or a limitation of YouTube? >> And the SC3 ports, I explain it in the video, the first two inputs of >> the 3-channel Synth Duck track are for the stereo audio input you'd like >> to compress and the third input is for the sidechain compression source, >> in this case a kick from Hydrogen. >> For the outputs, 1 and 3 are the >> compressed audio signals that I feed into the Synth Mix track. > > Thanks Jeremy, > I managed to reproduce it with jack-rack, h2 and aeolus. > Yes, it's perverse to sidechain duck an organ, but I figured it would > provide a nice, constant sound, and thus be ideal for testing. > > I had to enable 'create per-instrument outputs' in h2 to get the kicks > alone. > Oh yeah, thanks for mentioning, I'll add that to the description too because you need per-instrument outputs in Hydrogen. > The routing in jack-rack is a bit funky. > in_1 is the sidechain input, in_2 the left and jack_rack_5655:sc3_1-1_i1 > the right input. > So you hook up the h2 kick to in_1 and the signal to be ducked to the > next two ins. > You'll get the ducked signal left part from out_1 and right from out_2, > as you would expect. > > The funky part is when the plugin is disabled though, in which case it > will route in_1 straight to out_1 and in_2 to out_2.
