I've already understand how to do those creative pads, with a gate (like they've been choped, but i still could't do it with the c1 gate. I know i should send a rythm through the side-chain channel, but how?? Can anybody help me??
Cheers....

colin I know that plugin. somehow it introduces a low volume click at the beginning of a gated sequence. I tried different settings and some slight attack. couldn't use it properly tho ... any quick work arounds ?

gonzo: I like mgtriggergate (aswell free)

or camelaudio camel space (not so free)

I think you could have done the gating aswell with the c1-sc plug of waves. set the pad to the left via panner, trigger signal to the right, route both to a stereo group, set the panner of this group to c/c, set mode in c1-sc to l->r , ratio between 2:1 - whatever, reduce threshold, adjust attack and release to your liking. maybe you need to adjust input/output gain again. pretty complicated but it works you end up with mono but I'm sure one of these geniuses that visit this board could tell you a different way with waves plugs. I actually use this method for sidechaining/ducking my bassline.

It works fine for me with a slope of 0.1 or 0.2 ms. Clicks are sometimes a fact of life when using gates and I've been quite surprised in the past by the famous tracks I've heard that have quite clicky gated parts.           Mastering - http://mastering.OOOD.net :: www.is.gd/mastering

that's why i don't use gates try increasing the attack\release\slope\fade or whatever.. it may work.

Yeah, Longer attack, balanced with the track delay... so the sound becomes triggered a tad earlier than it says ... smooooth gating

Maybe you could use the Logic 5.5. Side-chaining plug-ins are so easy there wow... and the quality, amazing! Thinking about to spent a lot of money in order to get a Mac + Logic 7. I really love the quality obtained from Logic 5.5 I use and overabuse the gating/compressing side-chain using a lot of complex buses/auxes effects. I don't use my hardware, because Logic is amazing. alex.
