Don't know even though I use and love Mixtend. I personally find it 
hard to believe that so many people seem to want to use the multiple 
outputs feature in EXS. For these hard hitting kit sounds don't you all 
want to add compression and EQ sound by sound when you mix, and if yes 
why bother with multiple out? Why not use as many instances of EXS as 
you need outs and simply add the plugins on the instruments themselves? 
You get the benefit of delay compensation doing this.

I also find that having multiple EXS instances all holding the same kit 
uses hardly any extra CPU and uses no extra ram than to hold one 
instance of the kit. Is there a drawback I'm not aware of in working 
this way?
