Alright, here& #39;s that SideChain Compression experiment!

Thanks to @IndrisanoAudio for improvising the Captain& #39;s lines, and
@freesounddev for a few spicy sfx used in the creation of this experiment.

Would love to hear what y& #39;all think about the results.

Unfortunate.

I& #39;ve uploaded it to YouTube, but as of yet it hasn& #39;t finished processing.

Hopefully there it won& #39;t play in mono:p https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jRcr9hNcU5s">https://www.youtube.com/watch...

Final thoughts:

v1 is interesting, but the effect on the dialogue doesn& #39;t quite hit where I wanted.

v2 was a surprise to me, and I tried it on a whim. Works surprisingly well.

v3 is the safe approach, but to my ear, some of the energy of the scene gets lost.

I think another way of doing this would be to use EQ (maybe a HPF) on the dialogue tracks, or just lowering the verb as the turbulence hits. I think the energy increases as the high freqs of the dialogue drop out.
