  • Can't get sidechaining to work with PC4K compressor

Hello folks,
 
I created a pad track, and switched the prochannel compressor to PC4k S-Type, and turned sidechaining on with the toggle switch.  According to the video from Cakewalk, I go to another audio track (my bass drum for instance), and insert a send. I should be able to pick the PC4K as a send, but it doesn't appear in the list like it does in the video.  I seem to be missing something rather obvious, but I can't seem to experiment my way to success.
 
Can anyone help? Thanks.
Dave

The PC4K shows up in the send options as Built In Channel Fx(Input 2)-Track n. Where n is the track the PC4K is on.

Oh I see, thanks very much. Strangely this differed from their video, but that's fine!
Thanks again.

Cakewalk seriously needs to tidy up the way in which those sends are listed. It's messy and needlessly confusing.
