Management. Be sure you control all situations so that there are no face-to-face meetings between your dogs. Crate the agressive dog so there will be no "accidental" meetings, and cover that crate if you have to, to prevent agressive behavior around his crate. Remember to use lots of wonderful treats with your aggressive dog to associate seeing other dogs and being around other dogs with good stuff. What you are doing by raining high-value treats down upon him when he’s seeing / hearing your other dogs is creating a classically conditioned response to them: "Other dogs = I get treats". Also remember that you are not rewarding him for reacting badly to your other dogs at this stage. Spend a LOT of time doing this exercise: you will then be able to build from this. I highly recommend looking into the short books written by Jean Donaldson about this very subject. Have patience! Good luck!
I can help you through email, but I highly suggest you consult a professional ACABC dog behavioral counselor to help you with these issues. Email just does not address everything. Being there hands on with one on one counseling will help you solve your dog’s issues.
