#30 Sidechaining Bass Like Jaycen Joshua

I was watching an episode of Pensado's Place a few weeks ago and and saw Jaycen Joshua talking about sidechaining the lower frequencies of a bass track. So I decided to put a video together and explain how I think you can do that also.

I must say that this is my interpretation of how Jaycen Joshua would split up and sidechain the bass frequencies but it does not mean that it is totally accurate to his approach. This is something that I believe is common with any technique us engineers learn -- we take what we think we are being taught and then put our own twist on it.

Even though I feel like this technique can be really useful, my opinion is that it would have a time and a place to be used.

For example this might not work that great on an EDM track because the goal with an EDM record is to make the entire bass pump.

I think this is something that would be very useful for tracks that have a huge dependency on the low frequencies but aren't intended to have a sidechaining effects. This could be a lot of hip hop records or even R&B tracks where the low end is super important. But heck, you could really use this on any style of record.
