We do not hear the EQ move directly, although a change in tonality is often likely as we will see later on. When equalizing your compressor’s sidechain signal, it’s important to note that applying this equalization does not work in the same way that inserting an EQ on a track does. Regardless of which signal feeds the sidechain, many compressors offer you the ability to equalize the signal that the sidechain sees using built in filters. Some compressor’s allow you to feed a signal from a different track into the sidechain to create sidechain compression. The sidechain analyses this copy of the signal to determine when the compressor should apply compression. When a signal enters a compressor, a copy of the signal is fed to the compressor’s ‘sidechain’ circuit. Understanding a compressor’s sidechainįirst, let’s briefly look at what a ‘sidechain’ is. A function offered by many compressors is the ability to equalize your compressor’s sidechain signal… But why would this be beneficial and when might you need to use this function? In this article, we’ll break down the reasons to equalize your compressor’s sidechain signal.
