hi, does Rocket do sidechaining in Cubase 4 ? Is this a VST3 plug ? I know with the Cubase 4 VST3 compressor you can sidechaine just by clicking a sidechain button on the compressor and then sending to it. Any easy way to do it with the Rocket please ?
Thanks !

Mentions Major Tom by name, but works the same for Rocket.
Our plugins are coded to the VST 2.4 standard. VST 3 did not exist when we developed our framework.
