1. send all the drums to bus 1&2 and flick out the L&R main bus button on each drum desk channel or......
2. send the drums to a sub group but still monitor back the original drum channels aswell as the compressed sub group drums?
I think I remember psy saying something about doing number 2 cos of dynamics but I could be wrong.
Cheers ladies.

Kick to bus1 (comp).
Bass to bus2 (comp sidechaining from bus 1 [kick]).
Snare and Clap to bus3 (comp).
Hats to bus4 (comp).
Then I'll send bus3 and bus4 to bus8 (comp sidechaining from bus1 [kick]).
I leave a gap between 4 and 8 for any extra percussion that I might want in there.
Regards.
Steve.

I usually fill the first 14 channels of my Mackie with drum stuff. This all gets squashed with Logics compressors where need be. Then I send all the drums into my 1st stereo comp via buss 1&2.
My bass gets shoved through a mono compressor via an insert.
Then I shove all my soft synths (music) through my 3rd stereo comp via bus 3&4.
Then everything gets put through my Mixmaster via the main mix inserts. I only squash the whole mix by about 3db though.
Hope that helps.
