Sidechain ProC in Logic 7
I want to send a side chain signalfrom one audio track to another that has ProC on it. I see that there is the external sidechain button but it doesn't look like there's anywhere you can choose to grab the sidechain from.
Anyone know how to get a track to send a sidechain signal to the ProC? I had a feeling it was maybe the noise gate but AFAICT, it looks like all that does is select a track to sidechain from. That won't work for the situation I'm trying to create -
Audio track sends to aux with delay inserted.
Inserted after delay on the aux, I have an instance of ProC.
I want ProC to sidechain from the audio track that is sending to the delay so that the delay will "bloom" in the quiet spaces between vocal phrases.

Hi Camillo,
When you use Logic, you kind of have to think the other way around: you don't send a track's signal to a plug-in, but in your plug-in window, you choose which signal you pull in to use as side-chain.
So when you open Pro-C in Logic, you will find a little 'side-chain' drop-down menu in the plug-in header. There you can choose which signal is fed to Pro-C's external input.
Does this info help you?
Cheers!
Thanks Floris, I can't believe I missed that! I guess I was too busy looking at the white letters.
That is exactly what I need, thanks again.
