[RWP] Sidechaining in Reaper 4x

[Indigo]

I'm just guessing, without having looked yet for the video on it, or a 
project template, but what if you didn't route the inputs from the IO 
dialog, but tabbed to the dual pair of inputs in the FX chaining page, 
and tried to configure what tracks you fed them with from there?
I'll bet you can configure the channel of the track that feeds the 
ReaComp inputs, so midi channel would differentiate the stereo pairs of 
inputs from each other.
Just set your kick drum track on 1 midi channel and the track you want 
to have ducking on another.
Just guessing,
Indi
