side chain compression

[dlmartin]

We have the job of producing a one hour radio show and are trying to get up to speed in a hurry. I have the studio version of Sonar 3 and have the Producer upgrade coming - but it won't be here till next week.

What I'm looking for is a compressor plug-in that I can trigger with a side-chain of the Announcer track to use for 'ducking'. I'm pretty sure that the additional effects that come with the producer version will have what I need - however, the show needs to be recorded before it will get here.

In the meantime - does anyone know of a cheap ($20-40) compressor plug-in that will do what I want?

Thanks,
Dean

db-audioware's compressor is the only cheap thing I found that does ducking on a stereo track. The old shitty thing in Sonar dates from CWPA 9-ish and only ducks on mono tracks and is a pain in the arse to use.
