Filter works even with no sidechain input
Hi,
just trying out Pro-Q4 in ableton live v11 with sidechaining a choir to a playback. However it seems to me that the filter is applied even when the side chained signal is zero. In fact the filter seems to react only on the master signal itself - not on the side chained one. Anything i might be doing wrong?

Hi Gregg,
Unfortunately it is a bit hard for us to tell what is going on without more information. Is it possible for you to send us a short video that illustrates the issue? Please send it to info@fabfilter.com
You may not have sidechain button switched on for the band. It is a tiny button that is available only when band is dynamic.
