NOICE!!!
this is best sidechain plugin you can get! some people just use it on 4/4 beats sidechaining but you can you on various genres by using midi note trigger option! , there's a secret tip from me :) go ahead and try it !!!

Nice
Agile plugin that I like using especially for sidechaining


Probably my favorite sidechaining plugin. I use it in all my electro tracks.
I absolutely love this plugin, it's very versatile.

DAMN GOOD SIDECHAIN
Xfer makes good plugins already but this is one of the best!

Get creative with LFOs
I don't use this plugin often simply because I haven't take the time to properly learn it's capabilities. But Xfer does make some exceptional plugins and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this to anyone whether they are a beginner or professional

Another No Brainer...Every Producer should have this!
This is a MUST have! The only reason it doesn't have 5 stars is because I get a click noise sometimes if the side chain is too steep. However its usually a quick fix and well worth it

Description
LFOTool is an FX utility plug-in for both Macintosh OS X® and Windows®. It empowers music producers to create tremolo, auto-pan, trance-gate, side-chain compressor simulation, and dubstep-type wobble effects with minimal effort.
LFOTool will process incoming audio as well as generate a MIDI message stream for controlling other instruments. This unique plug-in also allows users to sculpt custom LFO curves and shapes and comes equipped with dozens of presets to achieve desired results quickly. Consistent with other products in Xfer Records' software lineup, LFOTool is coded entirely in C++ in order to minimize the CPU load during operation.
Features
- LFO with customizable point+tension-curve editor, 12 graphs in a preset (switchable via MIDI notes or automation)
- up to 4 graphs simultaneously (Cutoff/Reso/Pan/Pitch)
- graph preset shapes from a drop-down menu, able to save your own
- can optionally send MIDI CC out to control other softsynths, effects, or external hardware which responds to MIDI CC messages.
- BPM (with optional swing) or Hz LFO rate control
- sample-accurate sync
- dozens of presets included
- both Mac OSX and Windows versions included
- 64-bit VST and AudioUnit support
Requirements
VST, AAX, or AudioUnit host, Windows XP or later, or Mac OSX 10.6 or above.
Trance gate, mostly, but sidechaining with this is easier than messing around with bus routing and ghost kicks in Logic.
