Anyone have any suggestions on a good sidechaining plug-in for use with acid pro 6?

I want to hear what you all have to say for all price ranges of pluggins from freeware to $$$$$.
Thanks

ACID does not support side chaining directly. There are some special plugs that _can_ work by introducing alternate means to accomplish this, but we do not directly support this.

Don't know about that. There has been a lot of electronic music produced with ACID - and the other DAWs before they added side chain support - for a long time now.

Search the forums here and there will be some work arounds for side chaining in Vegas/ACID. I never had much luck with these plug-ins.

With VST3 formally defining side chainable plug-ins, we are looking at incorporating this feature into a future version of ACID.
