"sidechain comp" the low freqs of a bassline without affecting the top. Sometimes it is nice to see what is happening on a waveform in 1/4, 1/8, or 1/16 resolution (lets you see swing, decay of a kick drum, etc) and sometimes scuplt simultaneously.Ĭrossover processing. LFOTool now has formant filters, and I often use some of the combs or phases to carve separation between elements in a mix that are fighting.īeat-synced oscilliscope. You could automate a volume clip in Ableton Live but this is incredibly arduous the way Live works - either you're duplicating automation on the timeline (uggh, no thanks) or you have it in a clip (which is fine if your source track is a solid clip, looping or otherwise, but once you start having regions, well, let's just say Live could benefit from Aliases like Logic has).Ĭustom filter types. I use this instead of trying to get punch out of compressors or transient shapers, or in place of trying to get gates to do what I want.ĭrawing custom ducking/"sidechain" compression. Triggered enveloping - latest version has ENV switch, route MIDI to this for a pattern-triggered envelope on any audio signal. Here's the short list of what I use LFOTool for: I decided to recoup my time making it so I made it process signal instead of generate CV, so I made vol/pan/filter. I totally get why (and do it myself too) but it wasn't really one of the main reasons for making LFOTool (it actually started because deadmau5 wanted a way to control CV on his modular synths). The TL DR - I do a fair bit of mixing these days (in Live) and it lets me create space in a mix, or make sounds punch a lot quicker than dealing with traditional controls.Ī little aside, a lot of people have gravitated to LFOTool for sidechain comp simulation. Out of all my plugins I've written I use LFOTool the most.
I might not be the guy you want answering this question (slight bias, I want your money), but I'm powerless not to reply.
