Pro G Ducking?

At last an affordable and GREAT gate with 64 bit support too AND MIDI triggering.

This has been on my request list for ages (since GAG stopped developing).

Your product is fantastic already - I am buying shortly. It sounds amazing.

One thing that would probably get a few more sales and save us some time is the ability to switch to DUCKING mode.

For example: MIDI track triggers gate. MIDI notes are on the beat. 1-2-3-4 etc.

Hit DUCKING and the track that is being processed is then ducked on 1-2-3-4 instead of open gated on those beats.

This is a great way to get that pumping sound many of us use these days. And with added bonus your plugin sounds so good already!

Of course this is pretty easily done by moving the notes. But it is not as intuitive

Take a look at GAG if you are not sure what I mean.

Would be great if you could consider this for a future release.

Expensive and your sound better but Sonalksis has a ducking switch.

No longer in production and not 64 bit.

nb. About to hit the BUY button. So please consider this. Tx.

Good that you mentioned it ... i thought Pro-G could be used as a ducker.
It's indeed an important feature that is missing. Once it's integrated i will immediately buy Pro-G.

We'll consider it for an update!

Thanks,

Yes, it would be great if this gets included into a next update. The ducking feature would make this gate perfect..

After i just saw the summer-sale offer i ask myself if the ducking feature is somewhere near the horizon for Pro-G

... i am really close to the purchase button :-)

Chris L.

Yup, Standing by... Devs any info on this one please?

Gotta be honest the plug sounds great but jerry-rigging the ducking is not working for me... Might have to switch back to alternative and would HATE to have to do that.

It's on our list of features to add to the next Pro-G update. I can't promise a specific release date, but it's very likely to be in the fall.

Cheers,

Frederik (FabFilter)

That is awesome news. Thank you! :-)

Phil P

Yeah, thats great!

Another (additional) very useful feature for me (maybe for others also) would be a host-sync trigger function to get that 4-to-the-floor pumping sound very easily.

-> every quarter note closes the gate

This could also be added to Pro-C SC...

Maybe you think about it.

Please keep on doing this great job! I love your plugins :)
