SideKick 6 Extended is a powerful sidechain compressor designed for VST and AU compatible hosts on both Mac and Windows. It enables dynamic control by compressing one sound with another, a technique often used to duck bass sounds in response to kick punches. This creates clarity and space in your mix, enhancing the overall impact and dynamics of your tracks.

Beyond traditional ducking, SideKick 6 Extended offers creative possibilities such as producing sucking ride effects or building a dense wall of sound when applied to reverbs. Its flexible design supports up to 32 instances and 16 assignable send channels, giving you extensive control over your sidechain routing and processing. The plugin also features sidechain filtering and monitoring options to fine-tune your compression.

The user-friendly interface simplifies workflow with continuous sliders for ducking and keying, along with built-in tube saturation to add warmth and character. Preset management allows easy loading and saving of settings, while the absence of intrusive copy protection ensures smooth installation and use. SideKick 6 Extended stands out as a comprehensive solution for shaping dynamic interactions in your mixes.
