Is there anyway to side chain a gate in mixbus?

The S-chain Compressor worked well on Win (that is surprising in itself but I never tried the gate. Will do on something and let you know.
So in the meantime I put 3 sch.gates as sends A,B,C on three channels, put receivers on three other channels and another 3 receivers to another 3 channels one of them a mixbus just be crazy.
They performed properly.

Only one thing (my) Mixbus does not like: inserting or dragging plugins during playback. It may stop giving any sound though you can see the meters working and it is true for most plugs. Quit, open solves the case no harm done.
I am on win7x64 bit, 4 cores and SSD.
