it would be cool if you could just add a send device to a track, and instead of only sending to sends, if you keep clicking on the destination, it would link up to other track devices. such as: if there is a compressor on track 2 and a send on track one. the send would be destination:s01 as default, and then click right another time and it would route to track 2 compressor sidechain
You mean “apply the amplitude od what goes into the send device to parameter X of device Y”, right?
That would be… (but forget linking directly to the compressor, think HYDRA! OW!!!)
Some sort of averaging would be needed though, and attack, release, that sort of stuff… so I’d prefer a dedicated amplitude follower device, as has been suggested a few times.
