use the compressor in ableton and just route it to sidechain. dont worry about a special VST.

Did you extract the file then put the .dll in the Abletons VST folder ?
On windows by default its C:\program files\VSTplugins\
Also you need to make sure you have enabled the vst in the Ableton preferences File Folder tab.

Btw, i am actually working on a new smartmixing setup - that will be something to look out for. Its a heap better than the Belvario setup
