01 / SIDECHAIN — INTRODUCING SID
SID
Grooving Sidechain
Make your bassline breathe.
Every sidechain plugin ducks the same on every beat. SID lets each one breathe differently — longer here, tighter there — locked to your grid.
01 / SIDECHAIN
SID
Grooving Sidechain
Draw the pump.
Sidechain shouldn’t sound like a compressor picking a fight with your kick. SID lets you draw the envelope step by step — editable points, tension per segment — so the ducking becomes part of the groove instead of an effect stapled on top.
16-step pattern engine
A different pattern per step. No two bars alike.
Editable curves
Points and tension per segment. The exact shape you want.
Band + focus
Duck only the range that’s in the way. Leave the rest untouched.
PPQ-locked
Nailed to the host tempo. Always in time.
Same loop, same curve, same depth. The only difference is the pattern.
Technical specifications
Support
Download the installer for your platform, run it, and it drops the VST3 and AU into the standard folders. Rescan your DAW and the plugin appears. No account, no download manager.
One license covers three machines you own — studio, laptop, backup. Authorization is offline and there is no iLok anywhere in the chain.
Yes — 14 days, fully functional, no feature gates and no noise bursts. It runs on the same installer; enter a license key when you’re convinced.
All updates inside the same major version are free, including new presets and OS compatibility releases. Sessions stay compatible across versions.
Because the demo is unrestricted, refunds are handled case by case within 14 days — write to us and explain what went wrong. We’d rather fix it than keep your money.
