IMPORTANT!

Set the number of Plugin Stereo Busses in the Output Configuration area of

the Preferences > Audio Engine.

Adding Multi-Outputs in Logic Pro

In Logic Pro, plugins loaded as Multi-
Output plugins have buttons to ADD
(+) and DELETE (-) auxiliary channel
strips linked to the multi-output instrument.

Click the ADD (+) button to create 5 output channels, each of which is automatically is
assigned to the next available stereo output pair (3/4, 5/6, 7/8, etc). Name each channel
its respective microphone position: Close, Mid, Main, Surround, and Vintage.

Now play a note and check the meters to ensure each instrument is routed correctly.

Setting Up an Reverb Effects Bus

Continuing with the example above, with microphone positions routed to their own
channels, you can send varying amounts of signal from each microphone to the Reverb
Effects Bus.
In Logic Pro’s Mixer area, go to Options, then click ‘Create New Auxiliary Channel Strip’
(or press Control + N). Click in the Audio FX area of the newly created channel, and
load a reverb plugin from the menu. In this example we’ll be using EastWest’s Spaces
II reverb.
Click on the Close channel, hold shift, then click on Vintage channel, selecting all the
multi-output channels. Then, click in the Sends area of any of the selected channels,
and assign them to ‘Bus 1’. Now, in the reverb channel, click in the Input area and as-
sign it to ‘Bus 1’ (as shown in the example above).
