We start by routing the Bass and Chords channels through the Sidechain channel.These will need to be routed correctly in the mixer and then have the sidechain compression set up to achieve the desired result. I have already set up four mixer channels as follows Kick, Bass, Chords and Sidechain. In this very basic tutorial I show you how to route two audio channels to a dedicated sidechain compression channel in the FL Studio mixer and then sidechain a kick drum to the Fruity Compressor on that channel and create the well known ‘pumping’ sound.
