No side chain support for AU effects? (was Side-chains in AUs)

Hi,

I assume, by the lack of response to my original message, that this is new territory...

Has anyone successfully implemented an AU effect with a side chain (stereo in + side chain)? Is this possible? If so, what must be done to have the side-chain recognized by a host? What hosts even support side chains in AU effects? Are there any?

Thanks,
Brandon

Hi,

I am trying to get a side-chain working in an AU effect. I read some old posts on the subject, but they dont seem to help. It looks like all you need to do is create a second input bus which is done in the AU's ctor (the AU is derived from AUEffectBase):

TheAU(...)
: AUEffectBase(...)
{
CreateElements();
// need two input elements for the sidechain
Inputs().SetNumberOfElements(2);
...
}

AUValidator output

Input Scope Bus Configuration:
Default Bus Count:2
Default Format: AudioStreamBasicDescription: 2 ch, 44100 Hz, 'lpcm' (0x0000002B) 32-bit big-endian float, deinterleaved

The AUValidator confirms that the AU has 2 input busses, but Logic does not show the side-chain menu in the GUI. Is there something else that needs to be done here to get the extra bus recognized? What hosts support side-chains in effect plugins?

Thanks,
Brandon
