Sidechaining issues

Hi,

When I load limiters/compressor into insert slots of mixers/multifx sidechaining does work but values of input channels (for sidechain) will not be saved with the project. Also, I cant change the values when I set them. I cant disconnect either, clicking the "none" option does nothing.

Solutions ? Known problem ?

Peace,
---F.

That is right, the plugins don't remember their SC input. :/ I wrote to SFPreport@creamware.com for that.

-> Also, I cant change the values when I set them. I cant disconnect either, clicking the "none" option does nothing.
Try reselecting the selected SC input, will de-select it. You can then assign new SC inputs.

Great, that works!

I will bug SFPreport@creamware.com as well! I suggest everybody who reads this thread those

If they wont listen we'll start sending screenshots of each non-remembered sidechain input, fullscreen ofcourse *grin*

Or you could just breath on them atomic!

Hi fransh,

The only work-around I know for this issue is to have your compressor or limiter external of the mixer. The project will remember the routing that way. Hope this helps.

bump - i was about to post a new topic when i noticed spiderman's observation.

it is true - limiter m, gate m and expander m have unselectable sidechain inputs.
