CoreAudio / DAE timing slop

Ricky - I read your post below with much interest.  I have found it 
incredibly frustrating to do anything in Logic involving 
sidechaining, parallel compression, snare triggers from EXS, etc - 
basically any of the "normal" techniques I would reach for in 
the "analog mix world" to make my drums sound fatter.  The 
unpredictable "timing slop" between the virtual instruments, 
CoreAudio and DAE tracks makes these techniques essentially useless.

How do you work around this?  Do you bounce / print everything?  Are 
you no longer using DAE at all?

Thanks for any tips!!

put the audio in arrange, lower the volume if you want as you don't 
need to hear it.
