I thought ...If possible to build patch That
made side chain EQ . That Every time there is a kick, there is a high-pass filter on the bass line for example Every time the kick plays, the bass line has a high-pass filter!


I would be happy with someone who has patch like this.... :wink: :wink:
Or can Create patch like this.... :roll: :roll:

Thanks shay dan

I often need those kind of fx. You could use free MOVEQ on your bass with your BD on the side chain.

Your bass arrives in inL & inR. The device exists in mono.
BD is on side chain. In the image, I set both bands to cut low frequencies to get more result but one band mays be enough. You can adjust the attac and release with the envelope follower.

MOVEQ is awesome for this kind of job.

I tried with modular but the result is not very nice. (Maybe someone will do better). Is your BD audio or do you have the BD track in midi too ? Because if you have it in midi, you can do such things :

It's an eq which I use on a bass and which is modulated by its midi bass track : when it's low midi keys, nothing happens but when it's high midi keys, it increases the low frequencies. So more high are the bass note and more low frequencies the eq adds & vice versa. The result is really good. You could extrapolate to your needs with the bass drum. (Only if, like me, your bass track is midi... Otherwise, you'll have to replace the midi signal used to modulate the eq with an audio signal, that's it.

You'll need mod IV, do you have it ?

And install BCmodular.

With this modular patch, as I said before, when it'll receive low midi keys, the eq gain is low and high midi keys, the eq gain is louder. You'll just have to set the frequency you want or try with other modulable eq module (there is only in BCmodular modulable eq module). Or filter ... etc ...
Set also the control curve for result as you wish.

I think you should install also : http://www.cwmodular.org/Modules/CwmModules.zip which is another great free module collection.

The patch is for stereo signal but often, a bass is mono, so you can delete the 2° channel. Don't forget to input & output you bass signal, wire it to midi sequencer and sending it your midi bass track.

To learn about modular is awesome : you can create your own effect when the one you need doesn't exists. And also, you can to muddle up midi & audio in an effect, it's just fantastic. But you need time to learn. This patch can be improved by many ways, depending your need.
