Re: Wave Rider - Automatic Vocal Rides!!!
Mundoz,
Also, just a bit of blue sky thinking here. Any chance of being able to change the frequency response of the sidechain used for determining the level?? I mean like tipping it towards hi frequencies or low frequencies, or band pass? You know how sometimes pure level is not a true indication of how loud something is perceived. Sometimes with vocals, a lot of mid eq will dominate a word or phrase and sidechaining a compressor or similar with a "pre shaped" signal can produce much better results.
The other thing I "potentially" liked about the Waves plug, was the reference of the master mix via the key input sidechain bus. I couldn't really get VR to balance my vocal properly to start with, but the idea that the overall target level would lift when the music (ie: the chorus) got louder had a real appeal to me. Can't tell whether I thought it worked right for Waves though anyways.
Cheers
SB
