Stereo out AND a mono monitor output from MainStage

Hi,


I have an audio interface with 2 main stereo outs and 8 additional outputs. Is there a way that I can duplicate outputs 1&2 into a mono output via MainStage or audio midi setup to go through the audio interface on output 3?


I know I can set up a bus to send the audio out to an aux channel routed to output 3 but that needs to be done for every instrument in every patch but I have over 40 patches and some have 20 layers and splits in the them, so doing it on every channel would take ages. I would also need to set these up as post fade, not pre fade in case we alter any volume/balance of patches.


All I want is some way to send a mono mix so it can go to an onstage amp (no audio out on it sadly) whilst the main 1&2 go to the main output a the sound engineer.


Any help would be gratefully received.

Hi


One (quick) way might be to:


A) Open Concert and re-save new version

B) Right click on the output section of a channel strip, choose Change All, and select an unused Bus (your FoH Main Mix)




C) Add a Send to that (Main Mix Bus) ... route to another unused Bus ( Mon Mix Bus)... mono/stereo as required or add a Gain plug set to mono later






D) Route the Output of your Mon Mix channel to Outputs 3/4 on your interface
