Bob Perry Ducker Pro 2 – Manual – Page 12/18
Refer to your DAW’s manual for information on how to make a plug-in receive MIDI data.
In Logic Pro X, to use MIDI TRIGGER, create a Software Instrument track and insert a Bob
Perry Ducker Pro 2 instance as an instrument (not as an insert FX!). Then use Logic’s Side
Chain menu to “grab” your audio signal from your audio track. You will then want to mute your
audio track’s output and only have the Software Instrument track output your signal.
In the main window, instead of the THRESHOLD dial, you will be greeted with the MIDI NOTE
dial. Use MIDI NOTE to set the note which shall trigger the Ducker.
In OMNI mode, all notes will trigger the Ducker.
You can use the LEARN button to quickly set a note:
Click and hold the LEARN button, then press a note on your MIDI keyboard.
While MIDI TRIGGER is enabled, the following controls will be disabled:
HYSTERESIS, LO CUT, HI CUT, FILTER LISTEN, AUX SRC, AUX M/S, SPEC (display),
THRESHOLD LEARN OFFSET, FILTER RESONANCE
DRAW WAVEFORM
