Elektron Analog Four “Ducking“ or Sidechain effect via CV

Hi Lets create some cool ducking effects by using the Analog Four´s CV channel and control inputs. First; connect a TS cable between the CVA output and control input 1. Set CVA type to “linear“ on the global settings page (I had already done that in the video, but we look at that too) On the CV track, go to the ENV 1 page set the envelope ADSR to A:0 D:32 S:0 R:0 LEN: 0 DST: CVA Value, Dep: (any value, but lets start with 64) Remember to come back to the CVA page and adjust the value for difference in depth later on. Put trigs on the CV track. I chose steps 1,5,9,13 for that typical dance-groove On the Global page set Control Input 1 to CV On the Kit settings page select Control input 1 and choose your CV destinations to be effected by the wobble. I typically like to choose Filter 1 2 but you might also want to try AMP:vol or any other parameter. Adjust the depth to taste And there we are; a funky pumping effect, which you can easily disengage by muting the CV channel and, as I do in the video, further manipulate with the QPER knob. I achieve this by adding the CV channel CVA Value to the list of performances and see what happens when I turn it up
