I then merge the tracks together, so that all the bass drums are one track, all the snares are one, etc. I mostly do this because it's a darn sight easier to get one section right, rather than a whole 8-minute track with no other instruments on it. But I end up with a driving set of drum tracks that I then can record the guitars/keys/bass/etc. to, with no click, and the end result sounds a lot like a full band crankin' it out....with nothing else but the song in my head...
