Ghost Trigger Track for Invisible Kick Sidechain

[Cubikated]

Hi guys, what is the best way to create a ghost trigger track for invisible kick sidechain...you know to get that pumping effect? How do you route the for eg. the Pad? I'm using MuLab 7.

I made a quick video here :

Sorry, no voice explaining it (I don't speak english, I can just write it).
And also, There is about 2 or 3 seconds of delay between the images, and the audio, something didn't go well with the codecs. But I hope you will get the idea.

So, basically, there are 2 ways to do it:

1) you can route a track to a envelope and control a gain stage with it.
2) you can use a audio envelope follower (it converts audio to modulation), to modulate the gain stage.

I think if you watch the video you will get it.

Hope it helped you

This is my general workflow. Just assign a second Bass Drum track+rack pair to feed into the sidechain, but not the master rack.

whaaaaat, so the mulab compressor had sidechaining, that's what the second input did.
I didn't know that, and I have been using mulab for a while.
Well, I learned something new now.
Thanks dakkra.
