wavesfactory has all their plugins 50% off right now. i’m only really familiar with one of their plugins, but i get a lot of mileage out of it in lieu of normal sidechain compression… trackspacer is kind of a multiband compressor/eq that runs inverse gain of bands it’s hearing on sidechain to carve out space in the relevant frequencies on its channel. works quite nicely. no affiliation of course. https://www.wavesfactory.com/audio-plugins/trackspacer/
