hey guys/gals.

I am a DP4 user and have a question, I am a rookie but anyway...

I have 11 drum tracks and would like to mix them accordingly (all, eq's, gates, comps, reverb etc.) and mix them down to a stereo pair as to not take up so much CPU time, how is that done? also if I wanted to put some verb or compression on all the drums, but didn't want to use a plugin on each track how do I use one plugin for all 11 drum tracks, an aux of bus? how is that done, I have never played with aux or bus tracks at all. Many thanks in advance.

Andrew
