How to use:
1. Install the app and open your AUv3-compatible host or DAW on iPhone or iPad.
2. Insert SideChain AUv3 as an effect on the track you want to duck or add pumping to.
3. Create a trigger source such as a kick or voice track and route it to the plugin’s sidechain input within your host.
4. Adjust key controls like threshold, ratio, attack, and release, and watch the gain reduction meter to fine-tune how much the signal ducks.
5. Balance the output level, save your favorite settings as presets, and automate parameters in the host for dynamic changes across your project.
