Hello :)
I'm serching for a certain type of plug-ins, i don't know if they exist (that could be some good ideas for programmers ;))
So i dream about a sidechain EQ/filter, with a modulation matrix and a thing like the enveloppe folower on viruses, so when something plays, you can adjust eq/filtering modulated by the sidechain source envelope.
Or something more simple : with treeshold, when hiten, unbypass a fx charged in the insert plugin.
So is there something like this existing?

thanks 8) :D

What about Blue Cat's Digital Peak Meter Pro plugin?

It lets you automate in real time any parameter of any effect based on the input signal level. You can tweak the response both in time and amplitude (and eventually reverse it) and any plugin supporting MIDI CC or automation can be controlled.

Based on the same principle, the FreqAnalyst Pro plugin will let you do side chain based on the frequency content of the audio signal (which means pitch related control). Maybe have a global look at our analysis tools, they all provide similar 'sidechain' capabilities. In a standard sequencer or (even more powerful) a modular host, you can do almost whatever you want to(see the image below).

You can also check the tutorials available for these products, it might be clearer than this short description :). Maybe this side chain dynamic equalizing tutorial will be particularly interesting for you (if I have understood the need).

Hope this "self promotion" helps...

kind of, yes. A vododer is typically and bank of filters followed by envelope followers triggering other filters on another signal.

The same principle can be applied to many other parameters of the signal. It seems it's the kind of flexibility xoC is looking for.
