OK. No ADC. 12 tracks of drums. Outputs (not sends, mind you) to bus 1-2. Outputs AGAIN to bus 3-4 (holding shift-ctrl-option) - to two auxes. Identical plugs on both, labeled 'drums' and 'squish'. You can prolly guess which one had the bypasses plugs on it. Notice my drums only go out A 1-2 on the output of the auxes. No problems. No phase issues. The only two plugs I really use on the auxes are the MDW5 band and the EMI/TG Chandler comp. Big, sick drum sound. No phase anamolies, both busses are being summed together. I also insert EQ's (also MDW's) on each channel - bypassed until needed. This makes it easier to add some EQ without throwing my whole kit out of phase. Everyone is happy. Why are you guys losing your mind on this one?
