What are the ways you can use gates and side-chains to make..say a Kick and Bass really pump?

How would it be set up on a mix board?

What are ways you can make a whole track pump?

I know there are many techniques, any help apprecited.

If it is a situation where you really want the whole track to pump (I am really NOT a fan of this one but it works) you could send a sub mix of the kick and bass to the sidechain input of a compressor that is inserted into a sub mix of the tracks you want to "get out of the way" or "pump." Very mild compression ratios are usually more desirable using that technique.
