Logic Pro

Add two audio tracks (via Track > New...) that we'll use as main track and side chain track.

Add audio files on both the main track and the side chain track. You can simply drag audio files

from a Finder/Explorer window onto a track.

Select the main track and add Saturn 2 in the first Insert effect slot.

Open FabFilter Saturn 2's interface and set up an envelope generator or envelope follower,

triggered by the external side chain signal.

In the right top corner of the plug-in interface header, in the 'Side Chain' menu, choose the side

chain track. Now, the signal from the side chain track is sent to FabFilter Saturn 2's external side-

chain input.
