The calf plug-ins come to mind. The svn version has a sidechain
compressor but I haven't tried to use it yet. You'll likely need to run
it in calfjackhost.
Afaik there are also a couple of ladspa sidechain compressors that could
be used in jack-rack.
Sidechaining is afaik not easy in ardour2.8.x.

Hi,
I had some fun with alsamodularsynt [snip] sitting in front of a
powerful
Linux audio workstation for 48 hours straight [snip] :-)
Maybe now you could split the track up in frequency ranges and use
compression on each resulting track, instead of simply using EQ on the
original.
I tried to work with splitting up the frequency range a bit. It's a bit
of a hassle to arrange. Does anyone know of something like a 30 band
parametric which can output 30 channels of stereo? That would be a handy
tool.
I don't know if there's a compressor with
side chain input available,
but that might be useful too, e.g. to make the bass frequency range
'pump' down the other frequency ranges. (IIRC, there was a tutorial
about doing that with LMMS).
If you have the higher frequency range on a separate track, add some
reverb or panning or delay ?
An expander or gate could add rhythm accentuation.
Just my 2p, I didn't find the time to do all this to see if it works ;-)
I'm looking at the side chain compressor option. Does anyone have a
suggestion for which plugin to use?
