<![CDATA[Mono plugin with side-chain]]>This seems to be exclusive, so one or the other from what Claude reports.

But I definitely need to use my plugin on mono tracks, and the whole purpose of the plugin is to have a side chain in the first place. So I can't live without the two.

So is there a solution to this before I start patching Hise?

But the old trick was to add more channels in the the routing matrix and route them the way you want.

Now on top of this there are extra proc:
HISE_NUM_FX_PLUGIN_CHANNELS=4 which is the normal num channel + the sidechain channels
And
HISE_SIDECHAIN_CHANNEL_LAYOUT=1 which I didn't know about until tonight...

I'll try tomorrow to actually export a test plugin and see how it goes...
