How export tracks with bus plugins on?!

Hi!

For some months I have been looking for a solution to this problem, but I haven't found it. It would be great if someone could help me.

I work recording drums. I do some processing on the individual channels, and also on the drum bus. however, I have a big problem. I can't export the files with the processing of the plugins inserted in the drum bus. When I export, the Logic Pro completely ignores the drum bus plugins.

I've tried to bounce individually, but it sounds different because the compression done on the drum bus considers all the channels on the drum ... not just the "kick in", for example.

I also tried to create aux tracks, but it also didn't work.

If any specialist here could help me, it would be nice.

I don't know if this can be configured. I really couldn't find a solution to that. ✌️

The compressor reacts to the summed sound of all the drum pieces fed to it, and therefore you cannot export single tracks with the same compression - because the compressor will react less strongly or even not at all to a single piece fed to it.

So in short: it can't be done.

The closest you can come is export them without that bus (so: normal export of tracks) and make the other guy feed them to a bus/aux set up the same as yours.
