Problem: Send/Return reverb quality bad

Hi there,

got this little problem with my (b)Abe.
I imagine its been here before but I couldn´t find anything via "Search".

Say I want to add REVERB on everything but drums. What do I do?
I put a reverb on every single track seperately.
What a waste of CPUage.
WHY do I not use Send/Returns?

Because when I put the REVERB on a RETURN and have it returned to
every channel independently, it sounds really BAD. Maybe its even in mono.
There´s no sense in Send/Returns when the signal suffers, is there.

So, geeks. What can be done? Or is it just me?

if you're going to use a reverb on a return channel, crank the wet mix on it to 100%, and use the send knobs to control the amount of reverb. that way you're not doubling any clean signal
