"Peak Rider" - Guitar Dynamics Demo - Realtime dynamic matching plugin

PART 1: Dry drumloop
PART 2: Major compression - kick/snare sound awesome, but dynamics are lost and the hats/cymbals are way too loud
PART 3: Sidechaining dry drumloop to COMPRESSED loop w/ Peak Rider (75% wet). The kick and snare are still just as compressed and huge as before, but the in-between elements are tamed significantly. The perfect sweet spot!
