BIGKIXDIPPA: The Sidechain Effect Master for Your Mix
The sidechain effect is a key element in many genres of modern music, from electronic to hip-hop. It creates a sense of movement and energy, helping different elements of the mix coexist without conflicts, especially between the rhythm section. Implementing sidechain often requires complex settings. BIGKIXDIPPA offers a direct and effective solution for quickly and accurately shaping the sidechain effect.
What is BIGKIXDIPPA and how does it work?
BIGKIXDIPPA by Hinton and Fairchild is a virtual effect plugin designed for accurate volume envelope shaping. It works as a tempo-synced volume controller of your host, emulating the sidechain effect. This allows you to automate the volume of a track with a given pattern, bypassing complex compressor schemes.
