Midi sidechain or host sync with Pro-MB?
Hi, I was just experimenting with Pro-MB to create drive and pumping effects on synth arpeggios and basslines. Is it possible to use midi note trigger for the sidechain, or triggering from the host tempo? (similar to Vengeance Multiband sidechain) Using the kick as sidechain works ok but the bands on the material will respond to that same band from the kick sidechain, so upper frequency pumping seems difficult to get going aggressively.

Ah, found that putting the sidechain in "free" mode makes a big difference.
Still, tempo sync would be nice.
