As I'm running 2 EDS cards - one card - Submix 1 - will usually have Drums & Bass and possibly a rhythm Keyboard or two with at least 2 track left open for dynamic treatment of the drums
On my second EDS - Submix 2 - I run guitars and vocals with at least 4 tracks for dynamic processing of guitar tracks or BG vocals
If I have a heavy track load I will put the remaining tracks on my second rig and run them through Reaper flying a 2 or 4 buss from reaper back in real time into two or four open tracks in Paris...usually in Submix 2 when possible
I try with a passion to stay away from virtual submixes, to me they are just a PITA...that being said prior to acquiring a second rig I used to put as many of the the bed rhythm tracks on a submix and virtually mix them when need be.

Hi Kris, here is my setup/work flow; I've been using Paris since 2000 and just last year, started splitting up the load between the 3 cards and with virtual desktop, I love it. Sub#1, all vocals, and project guide tracks, click etc. Sub#2, all pads, guitars, synths, stringed instruments etc, Sub#3 is for beds, drums, bass, percs. I use virtual desktop to switch my 3 monitors between submixs (that BT video is something else). I also use macros on a small numeric keypad at my mouse hand for Paris audio edit functions I use most. I also started using C16 views for the mixer, editor and automation windows, great time saver. Now if only I could figure out how to change the virtual desktop using the mouse scroll wheel, that would "très cool"..!!
Also, I have notice an amazing diff in Paris stability since I stopped using DX, disabled it in Paris config and setup the rig using the Dimitrios approach of chainer with FFX4.
To track, I have 2 MECs but only use one most of the time. My A MEC has 8 adat and 16 analog ins coming from the pres, I switch it to wichever submix I want to track to via the master mixer. My B MEC has 8 adat and 8 analog ins.
Thats about it, good luck.
