Sidechain Duck
The SIDECHAIN DUCK block — the classic pump, DRAWN: route your program (a pad or bass) through it and draw the duck shape over one bar — a dip on each beat with your chosen recovery slope. The shape loops TEMPO-LOCKED forever, ducking the signal in time with the grid (no key input needed). Pick a Sync division (1/4, 1/8, 1/8T, 1/16) to set the repeat rate; the kernel samples the drawn curve at the transport's bar-phase and drives a unity series VCA (the scheduled-modulation path — the curve's shape IS the depth). A fresh block ducks on every beat until you shape it. (Auto-tracing the shape from a wired kick returns as a Key mode later.)
