Commonly when musicians and mixing engineers think of parallel processing, the think of using a dry/wet knob to control the blend of wet and dry signals. This however is only one way to do parallel processing. Another way is to use parallel tracks or buses to accomplish the same thing. In Ableton Live you can route audio from a single track or a bus into another track's input, turn the monitor to "in" and the new track will "listen" to the other track and here you can add additional processing that you can blend in with the faders. Whats nice about this tactic is that you can set your mix up to make full use of faders while listening to create a tactile workflow.
