SID - Grooving Sidechain

Make your bassline breathe.

Most sidechain plugins repeat the exact same movement on every kick, bar after bar. That can make even a great bassline feel static and predictable.

SID, Grooving Sidechain changes that.

Instead of repeating a single identical curve, SID lets you create evolving sidechain patterns across 1, 2, or 4 bars. Adjust the length and depth of each individual duck to build movement that follows the groove of your track.

Why SID?

• Create evolving 1, 2, or 4 bar sidechain patterns
• Control the length and depth of each duck individually
• Draw and customize your main sidechain curve
• Access 8 factory curve presets
• Save up to 8 custom user curves with the built-in curve creator
• Add controlled variation with the VARY knob
• Blend the effect instantly using MIX
• Select rhythmic rates from 1/8 to 1/1
• Sync everything perfectly to your project tempo
• Automate SID to move from subtle verses to energetic drops
• Fast, visual workflow with no complicated routing

From subtle movement to rolling basslines, SID gives sidechain processing something it usually lacks:

A pattern.

Three gestures, and your groove is alive.

SID. Grooving Sidechain.
