Frequently Asked
Sidechain ducking is a mixing technique where one sound's volume dips in response to another — usually a kick drum pushing down the bass or pads. It creates that rhythmic "pumping" effect heard in electronic, pop, and hip-hop music. On Tap gives you this effect without needing to route a compressor.
No. That's the whole point of On Tap. Traditional sidechain requires routing a kick to a compressor input. On Tap uses its own ducking curves and trigger modes — just insert it on a track and you're done. No bus routing needed.
On Tap has 3 trigger modes. Sync locks the ducking to your DAW's tempo automatically. MIDI triggers the curve from any MIDI note. Audio triggers from an incoming audio signal's envelope. Each mode gives you a different level of control over timing.
16 hand-crafted gain reduction shapes designed for different musical contexts — classic sidechain pump, sub bass ducking, kick trim, reverse chain, rhythm FX patterns, and more. Each curve has a different character so you can find the right feel without drawing your own automation.
The crossover filter lets you duck only part of the frequency spectrum. Set it to duck only below 200Hz and your bass dips while the highs stay untouched. Or duck only the top end for a different rhythmic effect. The range goes from 20Hz to 5.12kHz.
On Tap is available as VST3, AU, and AAX on macOS (Intel + Apple Silicon). Windows support is coming soon.
