Use multi-output instruments in Logic Pro
There are two reasons to use multi-output instruments in your mix:
To process each sound individually in a drum kit, for example, with different effects
To route the different software instrument outputs to different outputs on your audio
interface
Logic Pro supports the multiple outputs of Drum Kit Designer, Sampler, Ultrabeat, and all
AudioUnit instruments. One or more multi-output options may be displayed in addition to
the mono and stereo versions shown in the plug-in pop-up menu of the Instrument slot.
Note: Not all instruments offer multi-output options.
Insert and set up a multi-output instrument
1. In Logic Pro, click-hold the respective Instrument slot, then choose the multi-output
instance from the pop-up menu.
The first two outputs of a multi-output instrument are always played back as a stereo
pair by the instrument channel strip that the plug-in is inserted into. Additional outputs
(3 and 4, 5 and 6, and so on) are accessed via aux channel strips.
2. In the plug-in window, set up the output routing for individual sounds or samples. This
is generally done using a pop-up menu with entries such as Main, 3-4, 5-6, and so on.
