Getting rid of a computer on stage with the helix Stadium?

Hi guys! Here is my situation:
With my band, we haven’t found a drummer, so we run the drums as a backing track, along with orchestral samples.

Is it possible with Showcase to send the 8 backing track stems separately so that the sound engineers can mix the different drum elements and adjust the volume of the guitars and the orchestra?
 

For more details, here is our setup:

Orchestra (stereo) → in-ear + front PA
Kick (mono) → in-ear + front PA
Snare (mono) → in-ear + front PA
Overheads + Hi-hat (stereo) → in-ear + front PA
Toms (stereo) → in-ear + front PA
Click + cue → in-ear

For the in-ears, I can create a general mix for all the musicians and send it out through the 1/4" jack headphone output.

But what about the rest? I can’t send everything else through just the two XLR outputs — it’s impossible for a sound engineer to properly mix it that way.

You can’t send them individually to the FOH but you can adjust all the things you mention in the Matrix Mixer, and then send the pre-mixed stereo signal to FOH from the Stadium Send  1/4" outputs, independent of the XLR outputs.

EDIT: Correction - you can't direct the Matrix Mixer outputs to the Send jacks. Use the 1/4" instead.

Ok, thank you very much for your answer. If they plan in the future to release an update or additional hardware that connects to the Helix Stadium to manage separate signals and send them to a stage console and then to the front of house, I’m in right away.
