Define a channel strip’s stereo output
In Logic Pro, you can choose the physical output pair on which the stereo output is played. By
default, it’s played on Stereo Output (Output 1-2). However, you can easily change the stereo
output preference—if you’re exchanging projects with another studio that uses a different
output pair, for example.
You can also define the output pair for individual channel strips in the Mixer.
