Pro Q3 Dynamic EQ External Sidechain - VST3 / VST2

Dear FabFilter,

Thanks so much for adding external sidechain triggering to Pro Q3! I can see it in the VST3 version, but it seems like the VST2 version UI doesn't include the external sidechain option.

My host supports VST3, I'm just curious if I'm correct that it's only in the VST3 version.

Thanks,

cairnan

Guys, Thank You for adding this wonderful dynamic sidechain mode.

but WHYYYY would you stop at External Sidechain trigger, when all plugin instances are already talking to each other (ie, you can show the spectrum of any other instance). It would be so much more convenient if you could trigger based on other instances of Pro Q 3. No messy routing, just choose the other Q3 instance as your 'sidechain trigger', done. The ultimate Izotope killer.

I would never use that, but I can see how it would be cool if Q3 were the only thing you ever used. Otherwise you wouldn't be accounting for any other processing in your side-chaining. Also delay compensation for that kind of thing is no small task, but I imagine the visualizer is ok to not be perfectly compensated.

Yes, FabFilter wins again. Once EQ to rule them all. Squee!
