Q: 2 Tracks, 2 different audio outputs:

I have two tracks, exactly the same.  However, one track (track 1) has a metronome click, the other does not (track 2).  My laptop is connected to a Mackie Pro FX12 mixer.  I am connecting my laptop to the mixer via the laptop audio output jack connecting to a tape input on the mixer.  I would like track 2 (no metronome) to run through audio speakers and track 1 (metronome) to run through headphones.  Both the speaker and headphone outputs are on the mixer.  What do I need to do with Logic Express to make certain that the tracks are run through the correct output? 

Logic Studio, iOS 6.1.3

    Your Mac headphone/audio out is going to be two channels.

     

    In Logic, Pan (or assign) track 1 as full left and track 2 as full right.

     

    At the mixer, route track 1 to headphone output and track 2 to main or speakers out.

    I'm having some problems with this as well. I want to have one track playing on one output (headphones) and then another track playing on another output (speakers). I have panned each track, so one is on full left and the other on full right. But I don't understand what to do now? How do I route each track to a different output? I don't know how to do this.

     

    Many thanks in advance for your help.
