Accessing Multiple Instrument Outputs

Logic Express supports the multiple outputs of the EXS24 mkII, Ultrabeat, and all Audio
Unit instruments.

One or more Multi Output options may be displayed in addition to the Mono and
Stereo versions shown in the Instrument Plug-in menu.

The Plug-in menu offers additional information about an output configuration. As
examples:

 Instrument Name: Multi Output (2 x stereo, 4 x mono)
 Instrument Name: Multi Output (4 x stereo)

Note: Not all instruments (Logic Express or third-party) are multi-output capable. If the
instrument does not provide a Multi Output option, it is not equipped with multiple
output facilities.

To insert and set up a multi output instrument:

1

Choose the desired multi output instance in the Plug-in menu.

 The first two outputs of a multi output instrument are always played back as a stereo

pair by the instrument channel that the plug-in is inserted into.

 Additional outputs (3 and 4, 5 and 6, and so on) are accessed via aux channel strips.
