Thank you, Jakob!!! I had seen this term kicked around quite a bit, but had no idea what side-chaining was. It's inspiring to see you were making great music, and great videos all the way back in 2016!!!
I always thought the name "side chain compression" was invented by a sadist who wanted to confuse the hell out of all new musicians. Why not "compression trigger event" or something that makes more sense to anyone. It would be cool to have many events that could trigger certain other things to happen. There is no limit when it comes to these things. There will always be new things because people get bored with the same old sounds. I suppose that's why so many people like that pumping thing and others love the modular stuff. With modular there is an infinite number of sound possibilities. The thing with modular is that it seems sometimes that they go for different sounds for the sake of it and I feel that the concept of songs and melodies is lost. But each to his own. I personally like songs and melodies much more that just random sounds. Boy did I ever digress. Well, why not. Another good Haq video!
the audio production of this actual video is better than 99.9% of all youtube videos

Thank you Jacob. I feel silly to admit that I've never understood side chaining until seeing this tutorial and I'm quite excited to start using it.

They call should have called it "Murphy Phase Distortion," for clarity ;)
