RMX in Logic 8 as multi-timbral or multi-output?

Hi:
I downloaded the latest RMX for Logic 8. ( I've used RMX in Logic 7 a lot).

But, I'm not sure how to use it. If I open RMX as a multi-TIMBRAL instrument, 8 tracks show up in my arrange window, but they don't seem linked to RMX like in Logic 7 (e.g. midi tracks). Parts aren't ruted to them, and messing wif the RMX mixer doesn't seem to help.

And, if I open RMX as a multi-OUTPUT and set up some auxes with the + button, RMX channels 2-8 don't play through the auxes. It's as if they are not there. And there's no additional channels in the track windows, so I can't see regions for each part.

Ideally, I'd like 8 tracks in the arrange window for working with regions, and 8 channels in the track mixer for processing (although I'm OK just processing within RMX if necessary).
Can someone tell me the proper way to set up RMX in Logic 8? What have I missed (hoping not to open environment and relive the **** of setting up RMX in L7).
Thanks!!

Thanks for sticking with me Christian. I'm still messing with it. Still no luck. I've created multi in environment (followed video). Created multi in arrange, clicked + in mixer. I get a lot of things that look like RMX. So far:
- I can't get a master track in arrange or mixer, I can't get midi tracks in arrange, and I can't get RMX channels to distribute. It's screwed.
Would you mind telling me the steps you took? I must be doing something wrong.
BTW, yes I do have 1.6.1.

Ok. I think I know where you're doing something wrong. Create a track in the arrange. Right click (or ctrl click) on the name aand assign it to RMX channel 1 (Mixer / RMX (or whatever your multi instr is called) / Channel 1). Then select "New with next channel strip instr" in the "Track' local menu. Do that again util you get 8 channels). If it does'nt work, let me know, we will sort it out.
