So this is my first official patch. It started out as an experiment -- as to whether or not I could get a ducking or sidechain effect out of my default AE Modular Starter Rack 2. All sound is from the AEM. Sequencing was done on the Beat Step Pro. I think it could use some EQing but that is a bit tedious in audacity. So this is pretty much straight out of the AEM. Second session I think it got too bassy at parts but more of a complete song.
First session sidechain was pushed in this one And the patch Performing live is tough! Excited to keep practicing.

New track using my sidechaining technique. EQing and recording isn't great -- working on that!

Excited to get better with the AEM and post more! Although, I don't know if I'll ever be a prolific as you arti

Sounds great! (... and that is coming from someone who goes into grumpy-old-codger-mode at the sound of gratuitous side-chain and/or voice correction.)

Thanks rodney For some reason I’ve been hung up on the idea. I think I’m gonna let it go for a bit and start focusing on other things like making a cohesive mix with tones that don’t compete with each other as much

That sounds great! How did you get an inverted envelope?

I know I ran it through the 2ATT which has an invert. But from what I remember I had to do a little bit more before it worked. I'll re-patch it and give you the exact recipe later today if I can

Well lrvnn it wasn’t that much more complicated. Perhaps the first time I convoluted it a bit but I just recreated the ducking patch and I think this is as minimal as it will get: Modules used: 2ENV, 2VCA, 2ATT/CV This will get you the ducking effect: 2ENV out1 > 2ATT in1, inv1 > 2ENV gt2, out2 > 2VCA cv Note: gt2 should be switched to “GT” rather than “TR” this will hold it on, then the inversion will cut it out. 2ENV out1 controls the kick sound, and out2 controls the ducking. Both plug into 2VCA to control the actual sounds. Wish there were an easier way to show you!

I've gotten more questions about how I went about making the ducking patch so created a tutorial video on the subject. While making the video I discovered a few things along the way, I can now think of 3 ways to go about making a ducking patch, I detail them all in the video. This is an absolute starters guide, so may be redundant for advanced users.
Ps. Sorry for my liberal use of the word "UM".
