5 Ways To Use Sidechain | Cubase Secrets with Dom
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 6 มิ.ย. 2024
- In this Cubase tutorial, Dom Sigalas looks at using sidechain in your music production for different effects. These include adding groove with the classic sidechain pumping effect and blending elements using the Frequency 2 EQ in sidechain mode. In Frequency 2 you can have up to eight sidechains on different EQ bands, setting the attack and release to your material for maintaining loop fullness. By sidechaining synth ARP to vocals with Frequency 2 EQ in MS mode, you can make room for vocals, giving them room to shine. You can use sidechaining to create rhythmic gated effects, creating a choppy or smooth sound with the Threshold and Hold function, on pads drones vocals guitars and more. If you use the Retrologue 2 sidechain input in Cubase 11, you can also radically change a sound using the Retrologue filter and arpeggiator.

Wow! You have no idea how these tutorials have improved my production. I got a production project that I knew would have a wider audience than I'm used to & I had to deliver for the artist. I did it entirely with these videos. Now I'm delivering material I can be proud of. Thanks so much Dom.
I've been using Cubase since pre VST days and I still learn a lot from your videos. Great way to get new ideas.
I really like you explanations and demonstrations. They are super clear and concise. This one really helped me with my vocal.
It's probably the 5th time I've watched the sidechain tips and get more ideas each time, this is an oldie but goodie thanks again Dom!
The 1-3 were well known, but as always nicely put. BUT! 4 and 5 were real gems! Thank you again, Dom ;-) The Retrologue trick is simply awesome.
That Retrologue trick is new to me! Super awesome lesson again Dom!
Very well structured and easy to follow, all of your tutorials are a breath of fresh air, clear and packed with information. Thanks Dom!
One of the most useful tutorials I have seen yet. Thanks.
That Retrologue side chain trick is fantastic. Passing an external synth (Korg MS2000r) drone sound through it - amazing! Thank you!
Wow that gate side chain effect is awsome thanks as always for a great lesson
Hey, Dom. It is so amazing what you do in such a sympathic way. Thanks a lot!!!
I remember seeing something about using Retrologue for FX, but that is amazingly more cool and useful than I realized. Many thanks, again!
Once again many thanks Dom for clarifying side chaining in Cubase. I have avoided this technique up to now as I have found it hard to understand. Your video makes it much I clearer. I will be using it improve my music productions from now on.
Just incredibly useful insights, thank you Dom!
That last trick right there....💥boom💥!!! as you would say. And all in id say this is the best cubase lesson on the planet! Cheers dom. 👏🙌😁
So you did again Master!!! Very impressive ways to use the sidechain. Thanks for sharing them with all te human beings...!!!
Tip 5 is a game changer. Wow. On a side note, thank you for making these videos. There isn't much Cubase related content out there, and your work fills a big void.
You are the man!, just "thanks" in an infinite loop, gold class tutorial!, greeting from Buenos Airess, Argentina

Using Retrologue as external filter, with it's own sequencer for automation?! That idea never crossed my mind! Thank you Cubase, thanks Dom Sigalas!!!
It’s crazy isn’t it?! We have all the tools but have no clues...🤣😂 this has opened up a new ideas now. Time to look at all Cubase plugins and see if they all can side chain this was. Fantastic

Thank you so much for the kind words Henri! I appreciate it!
@@DomSigalas @Dom Sigalas
and I really mean it :-)
Unfortunately there´s a bug when making a snapshot (mixing console) using this technique: recalling the snapshot after closing and re-opening the same project deletes the SC-Input in Retrologue. Not a biggy but somehow annoying - had to search for quite a while to figure that out have already reported it to the Steinberg Support.
I´m wondering if other users are also experiencing this quirk.
You’re a great instructor 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Dom, that fifth trick was fire, dawg.
retrologue game changer :) top tutorial Dom
The last two are game changer for me. Thanks Dom
You're welcome Ivelin! :)

Dom forever!!!
Nice sir Thanks
magician!!!!! did not know about midsite in fr2
Thanks. This is great!
Hi Dom, thanks for sharing this precious knowledge! I started a year ago getting serious about learning about mixing in Cubase and all this info you share has helped me a lot! Thanks a lot , please let me know how can I support your channel. Saludos!
very cool stuff -- hope I can wrap my head around it :)
Have fun Linda! :)
Dom is just the best, that was awesome as usual !
Great content, as always. As for tip #5, when I was a teenager, decades ago, I used to like to plug other instruments into the back of my (analogue) synth. Nice to know I can do the same thing in the box!
I know right? :) :) :) Thank you Christian!
Super!!! thanks a lot.
#5 blew my mind, after years of working with Cubase I had never tried that! Thanks a lot! I had to try it right away! So you can set de SC to pre-fader and then blend in, or leave out, the source signal by using its own fader, right? And even do it with a bunch of them. Nice.
I sometimes use aggressive sidechain, as #1, on pads to make them move as well, or with any element that can get richer with those dynamics.
Thanks again, have a great day!
Thank you !
You are the BEST 👍👍👍👍👍
Very interesting, thanks !
This was awesome, thank you so much! :)
