In this video I show how to use one of Bitwig's Grid devices (coming out soon in version 3.0) to solve a longstanding problem with audio sidechain ducking results in Bitwig. This custom FX Grid device preset also enables an even tighter precision and more flexible shaping of the ducking envelope than any of Bitwig's native sidechaining devices currently allow for (if they were working properly at all).
If you want to grab this FX Grid preset, you can do so by joining the Bitwig discord server at discordapp.com/invite/0g2ZPafIN3eWParf. Then search the #resources channel there for "precision audio ducking". Note that you'll need 3.0 beta 9 or later to successfully load and use this preset.
Although I don't reference it in this video, here is a link to the "Bitwig Handbook" that it often mentioned in this series. This is an evergreen document that I will continue to expand and improve as I make more Bitwig tutorials.
