Tascam 788 Recording Question

[StylzofByond]

Is there an efficient way to record 4 tracks of drums (tracks 1-4) & also have scratch guitar & scratch vocals running through a headset for the drummers guidance during a recording session from this unit? My band is trying to record & make a demo using this unit, but I know recording live won't sound that good, unless we do trax individually. So I am trying to record 4 tracks of drums & then bouncing those 4 tracks down to stereo tracks 7 & 8 & then leaving the other 6 open. I just want to be able to find a way to record 4 tracks of drums without anything bleeding into the mics. ie...like in a pro studio. Would I have to be using the aux inputs, but not recording those trax when I do record the drums? Can anyone give me any tips?
