On the Fatso's SIDECHAIN: TIP is OUT, RING is IN. You'd need to use a Y-Cable (TRS splitter to 2 TS) for each sidechain. You'd need a specialized connector to do that w/ the Pilot.
While the Pilot is cool, I'm going with a cheap 1-space rack EQ that has some volume control as well. This way you control not only the threshold for the compressor but also what frequencies are going to get compressed. Very useful when you don't want the comp going smashysmashy w/ your low-lows (drums with beefy kicks or for mastering applications), or for broadband de-essing (not that warmth doesn't already do a pretty darn great job of making trouble frequencies melt into a bubbling pot of golden awesome).
