constance between 2 tracks

Post by mazler » Tue Sep 15, 2009 3:53 pm

I'm new to this but I'll give an example of what I want to do.
I record on track 1 and something else on track 2.

Track 1 has a certain volume.

I want track 2 to be set at 95% of track 1 at all times. If volume goes up on track 1, I want track 2 to follow.

That way my track two curve should always be at 95% of the track 1 curve level.

Can I do that? and how?

Thank you all.

If I understand what you mean, I think you need an "Envelope follower".
I believe there has been a Nyquist plug-in made for this purpose (possibly by David R Sky).
I can't find it at the moment, but it may be worth Googling for it.
