After the 'Call on Me' thread I decided to do a little looking around on this compression technique and found some great stuff:

Freeware side-chain compressor:

They all came up on the first page, and the link to the compressor was found by the cubase forums... word spreads fast! There's a few nice tidy plugins there to play with.

I tried the Cubase quatro track in a group trick, but my stereo input track changed to mono! The answer is right there in the first forum link:

pre-fix:
Thanks for checking out this routing problem on your system. I've been able to correct the issue as you described, and agree that it is not a 'bug' as such. I don't use Cubase's surround functions much at all aside from grouping for stereo sidechaining (as per my previous post), and am therefore somewhat unfamiliar with the SurroundPanner. Though I did brief the manual beforehand in order to resolve this issue, I tend to use the 'Index Search' function and missed the relevant material completely...for the benefit of others who may be reading this, type 'Surround, Surround Panner' (without quotes) into the 'Index Search' box of Cubase's HTML help for a direct link to the material in question.

In order to route a stereo channel to the L/R channels of a surround group while maintaining the true stereo information, the stereo channel must be set to 'Y-Mirror', and (the following is not expressly noted in the manual) the grey panning balls in the SurroundPanner window must be set to 100% left and right, as switching from 'Mono' to 'Y-Mirror' defaults the left and right grey balls to somewhere close to the center of the stereo field.

While this behaviour is clearly intended by design, the manual *does* in fact state "The default mode for stereo channels is the Y-Mirror mode". But this is not the case, as the default mode for stereo channels seems to be 'mono mode' every time, which is what screwed me up in the first place.

There might be a 'bug' then, after all.

Thanks again, pre-fix.
