Best sidechain compressor for non 4/4 beats in FL Studio. Used maximus & Fl Limiter . Want to find a plugin like Sidekick by twisted lemon. Suggestions ???

I feel like it's better using what comes with the daw, and the sidechain options on Fruity Limuter are pretty good compared to some other compresors. To have better control over the sidechain on FL try using a ghost kick. :D

Sidechain Compressor by db Audioware all the way. Not so commonly known, but for example Afrojack uses it too.

I use Fruity Balance and just use Volume Automation instead of proper sidechaining

VolumeShaper 4, the best in my opinion.

I'll second Cableguys Volume Shaper. I've heard really good things and those guys make quality VSTs.

for sample accurate side chain, automate the volume utility in fl is the best and its free( you can store your automation curve and re use it)

I use LFOTool for all my ducking; it's on par with VolumeShaper imo.

When I use a plugin for sidechain, I usually use kickstart. I haven't tried many others, but usually use a ghost hi hat or kick and shape my sidechain with ableton's native compressor. All these plugins have nice set shapes for the sidechain, but if those aren't suiting to your mix, its best to shape it to the mix on your own!
