Introducing "Kickfit"
KickFit helps you stop guessing sidechain settings by listening to the kick and bass, identifying where they clash, and suggesting a recommended curve that gives the kick space while keeping the bass feeling full.

Side Chain X shows you exactly how your kick and bass interact
- so you can fix clashes instantly and dial in perfect groove with confidence.

The "Punch Meter"
Dial in punch instantly. See whether your sidechain is helping or killing your kick — and land in the sweet spot in seconds.
See exactly where your kick and bass collide
Fix it in real time, so you can identify overlap faster. Makes sidechain decisions visual, not just guesswork by ear. Helps you understand why a low end feels muddy!
Envelope Shaping Made Easy
Shape your groove visually. Create tight, punchy or smooth, flowing ducking curves — exactly how you want them.
Three Trigger Modes
Works your way. Sync to BPM, react to audio, or trigger via MIDI — for total control.
Visual Feedback That Helps
See what’s happening. Understand your groove instantly with real-time signal and gain visualisation.
Low-end focus mode
Focus on what matters. Isolate your low-end so you can fix kick/bass clashes faster and more precisely.
Hit freeze to inspect and tweak your groove
Lets you inspect the one exact kick/bass interaction without chasing a moving display. It speeds up detailed attach/release/depth decisions.
Replay Mode
Review recent history instead of relying on one live pass. Makes timing issues (late recovery, over-ducking, uneven impact) esier to identify. Helps you see cause and effect.
Fast, Musical Results
Instead of setting up a compressor and guessing at attack and release, SideChainX puts the movement directly in front of you, allowing you to make precise adjustments on Attack/Release/Threshold and depth. What you see is what you hear.
Stereo Spread
Add width and motion by offsetting the envelope across the stereo field. Keep it centered and clean, or push it wider for more animated movement.
