I am interested in the practice of side chaining a 2 bus compressor in order to let my low in pass through undisturbed. i have read that you can feed an eq to the side chain to accomplish this. can someone explain this process? how is the eq patched in? how do i set the eq say for example if i want to allow 100hz to pass through the compressor untouched? what is the difference between a compressor with a side chain insert vs a side chain in? i am completely new to this operation.

thanks!
