You can always make a buss channel send all your tracks to one delay. |
I usually keep my delays more individual and place them in the inserts while i like to place my reverbs on seperate sends so i can really eq them better....of course its a matter of taste... |

| I've still never sent any of my tracks for master.. but theoretically if I I got to a point when I couldn't do anything better to my track.. then I'd consider sending it.. I hear they put better tops on synths.. besides having your track sound consistent on any PA its played on.. |

The kick sounds totally separate from the track and far too dominant I think.
Sure the kick in EDM is prominent but should still be an integrated well mannered part of the whole piece and well balanced with the bass. Always hard work getting this critical part to work as I know only too well.
Maybe some folk like a really stand out kick like this though? |

It really is quite loud, and compared to that the bass is almost nonexistent. When the main part hits, the drive is completely gone because all you can hear is the beat and lead. |

Honestly if you aren't sure, stop compressing. If you want to fix your kick, compression isn't the way. Get a new kick.
Regarding your bass line, with higher bpm I would try and stick the simply kick bass kick bass. Example https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=El4T2YRQ4J4.
The best advice I could give you is find the sounds that sound how you want, make cuts on the low and high and to free up your mix (don't boost everything to try and make it better). Mix by getting the volume close, and simply go up by half a db until it sits right.
I just got to the magician, much better kick.
This is my best so far. I only link to it so you can decide if you think my mix is clean and maybe take a bit of my advice.
