Sidechaining
The 'EXT' (External) toggle in the Routing Menu feeds the Dynamics module fed
from an external sidechain, routed from your DAW. Check your DAWs
documentation on how to route a signal to a plug-ins sidechain input.
e.g. you could route a kick drum signal to the sidechain input of a plug-in instance on
your bass guitar track, and toggle 'EXT' in. This would trigger the compressor the a
bass guitar from the kick signal, causing the bass guitar to be 'ducked' when the kick
occurs.
The high- and low-pass filters and EQ modules can be moved into the Dynamics
sidechain, using the circular toggles in the Routing Menu. The 'EQ' toggle
corresponds to 'EQ to Sidechain' and the 'FILTERS' toggle corresponds to 'Filters to
Sidechain'.
