Sidechain example in Dataline's video

Hello! I was listening to Dataline’s newest video and he has some nice ducking going on. Does anyone know how he is doing this with the Elektron devices? With Heat side chain?

He uses the envelope follower to reduce the drive whenever the kick drum hits. I think he explained it in some of his earlier videos and it‘s described in the tutorial video for this one, too.

by just making the kick louder than the rest of the mix? or by routing the kick to a separate output into the Heat?

It should be in the digitakt manual, you create an envelope linked to sample volume that triggers with the kick drum
