I have what I call a pump track - have a kick loop and duplicate it all the way through your track _ I actually have this set up as a template - mute it and then you can use this a a sidechain track
Duplicate my kick track. Freeze and flatten the duplicate and name it Silent Kick.
Check the audio loop is looped, then drag it all the way along my arraignment.
Turn off the track activator (yellow box with a number in) of the Silent kick.
Set the Sidechain on the compressor to Silent kick and Post FX (not Post mixer).
Why freeze and flatten? If you zoom right in to the kick in the arrainge mode, you can see how long the kick is in seconds and from that it gives a good starting point for the release of the compressor.
