Hi,

Anyone know of a freeware compressor (OS X version) I can use for sidechaining in Live?

Cheers

Thanks for this.

To my surprise though I have found these folders but they are empty!!

Where can I get the file from?

Hope you can help

i don't know.

I honestly don't even know where mine came from.

lord toranaga,

Could you see if there's a site name given in the files? Since the files are freeware, would you mind zipping the files then emailing me a copy?

don't think so.

I cannot find them on my computer.

I looked in both liabraries.

good luck

They will be accessible when you access the AU/VST plug-in pane next to Ableton's file browser. Don't forget to turn AudioUnits on in the preferences.

To get the nice free Audio Units and AU Lab too, you need to install the Xcode Tools from the other DVD that shipped with Tiger (assuming that is what you are running on -- if not, somebody else may be able to help).
