Is there a way in logic to select multiple outputs on the same channel at once?
In protools I can select multiple outputs at once. So for example I can have stereo 1&2 and Stereo 3&4 coming out at the same time on a given channel.
thanks.

In Logic, a channel strip has one output. And this is not a send. It is a selected output. That in my example it happens to be with an aux strip is irrelevant, I could also route any instrument or audiotrack straight to output 3-4.
Otherwise, you could, in Audio MIDI Setup, aggregate your physical outputs in a multi-output device and select that as output - then the output gets send to all selected outputs simultaneously.
A Multi-output-device must be created in Audio-MIDI Setup for that.
in Logic->preferences->audio-> I/O assignments in the top half of the screen you have
Output and a checkbox for mirror under that.....
If you select 3&4 for output and check the mirror box ( this will send the output to 1&2 as well).
So the end result is you will have your signal go to both 1/2 and 3/4 by only selecting Stereo output on the channel strip.
In Logic you can do the same, if you've chosen an interface in your audio prefs that actually has multiple outputs. Then it is matter of routing anything to output 3-4 (or others), and the output channel strip will automatically be created.
ok so lets say I want to have my channel come out my master and 3&4 at the same time without creating a send.
hope that describes it better. In protools I can control click and then they are both selected under output.
yes I know. I was stating that im aware that I CAN achieve this using a send. Its not the end of the world thats you cannot do this but it would just help my workflow a little when jumping between laptop and studio. This is due to my NEVE8816 I use. I can achieve what I want by setting up a template and have my subgroups be sent to an AUX but I was trying to avoid that.
Like this:
Im referring to having one channel strip with multiple outputs. Not a send.
As far as I'm aware you cannot do this. May I ask why a send is not sufficient?
that might do it .
thanks
selecting multiple outputs
