I’ve discovered a rather unpleasant sidechain-related bug in Studio Pro 8. I’m trying to set up a basic sidechain on the bass triggered by the kick drum. However, as soon as I route sidechain signal to any plugin on the bass channel, the bass level drops by approximately 4 dB. Of course, the same occurs with other channels.
Interestingly, the issue appears to be related to the Console Shaper in Mix FX. The volume returns to normal immediately after disabling it.
For clarity, the session is running at a 96 kHz sample rate. This is importantn because I recall that some Mix FX plugins previously affected gain at higher sample rates. I first encountered a similar issue about five years ago and am disappointed to see that it still hasn’t been resolved — or may have resurfaced.
