Nicky Romero and Cableguys have come together to bring a fresh sidechain plug-in to the producer community. Sidechain compression is used to rhythmically change the volume of audio channels to provide space and definition. The kick drum and bass stand out only when the effect is implemented. Kickstart has a big Mix control, 16 hand-crafted modulation curves, a precise oscilloscope, and can run synced or retriggered via MIDI, with loop and one-shot modes all available. Forget complicated compressor routings, producers can simply drop Kickstart on their channels and be ready to go.
You can use Kickstart in any VST or AU sequencer such as Ableton Live, Logic, Cubase, Fruity Loops, etc. For PC+Mac, 32/64bit, VST/AU.
