How to have a sidechain input in my device?

Hi all,

I'm a beginner interested in making a sidechain device. Let's say I want something supersimple to begin with:

Have a sidechain option in presentation(a list to choose from like in live's stock devices)

Everytime(sample?) There's incoming signal from the sidechain(volume>-inf?) The auduo of the track will be muted(gain=0?)

Would love to get some help with this,

Have a good one 👍

Sticking to your description:

I don't understand what you mean here. "a list to choose" => see [umenu] help page ?
