Side-chain compression and exporting – Tracktion Forum

I just wanted to confirm something. Since my PC is pretty old and chugs under the pressure of turning on the frequency compressors in TDR Nova, I am tending these days to want to milk every ounce of CPU I can by processing tracks in groups. For instance, EQing, compressing, perhaps using Nectar over something, and then export that track and bring it back in to use fresh without any need for more plugins. Makes easier for me to mix.

Just want to be sure that if I’m sidechaining, say the low frequencies and export just that selected track that that compression is being recorded in the export, therefore the ducking can be heard in the newly imported track.

Thanks
