Chain Shaper
Precision sidechain and volume ducking
Chain Shaper is a Max for Live sidechain and ducking device that uses automatic transient detection, multiband routing, and oscilloscope feedback rather than traditional compressor thresholds.
Automatic Transient Detection
Say goodbye to threshold controls and hello to automatic. Chain Shaper is the only plugin capable of automatically detecting drum transients and using them as a sidechain trigger. No more using dummy clips and "tricks" to get a clean sidechain.
Multiband Sidechaining
Want to only sidechain the lows? Done. Split the signal into three bands and side chain without any phase shifting. Route up to 6 input channels across three split bands for a simply unmatched level of control over your sound.
- Automatic transient detection - detects drum hits at any volume without the need for any threshold control.
- Incredibly accurate audio triggered sidechain
- Completely customize your sidechain
- Route up to 6 audio channels for precision ducking in one instance.
- Transparent multiband splitter to target specific frequency bands for sidechaining.
- Multi-channel oscilloscope to view how each channel affects the ducking and interacts with each other.
- Uses only 2.8ms of latency and low CPU.
- A Max for Live plugin for Ableton Suite 10, Ableton Suite 11, Ableton Suite 12 or Ableton Standard with a Max for Live License.
