Overview

Name | Version: RingChain 1.2
Author: JXQU3
Device Type: Audio Effect
Description: A ringmod sidechain max for live device, free!
Inspired by virtual riot's https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hB12XnUHMpw&t=470s
With the filters off, I confirmed VR's rack cancels out perfectly with my device, so it's working!

Also, features sidechain gain to increase the crunch, and smoothing to reduce it and make it slightly closer to sidechain compression, without loosing the extreme snappyness!

The DSP is made from scratch (meaning, it does not need any other plugin installed to function, and uses little CPU)
It consists in: rectifying the sidechain input negatively -> abs(input) * -1
Multiply that with the main input -> input * abs(input) * -1
Sum that with the original imput -> input + (input * abs(input) * -1)

Includes oscilloscopes, and sidechain filters!
Tell me any bugs here in the comments or in my discord -> jxqu3

Updates
- 1.2: Added optional smoothing to reduce distortion, along with better oscilloscope visualization
