Just fyi, back in the day, sidechaining was often used when compressing the bass guitar. The bass drum signal was fed into the side chain input to make the bass drum "punch through" the bass guitar signal without overloading the low frequencies. I didn't have the analog mixing capacities to do it back then, but it is something I hope to explore mixing in the digital realm. Once I get beyond being a noob, I'll report back on how it works.

Thanks, open source is awesome!
