Setting Hardware Outputs
Use the Output pop-up menu in each submix to choose an output channel or set of
output channels. Your choice defines the output of that submix as either mono, stereo,
or surround.
To select the hardware output jacks for a submix:
m
Click None, Surround, Stereo, or Mono from the Output pop-up menu in the track
header of each submix, then choose a channel or set of channels from the submenu.
The available choices within each of these output categories depend on the number of
available physical outputs and number of submixes in your project.
Note: You can create submixes independently of the audio hardware connected to your
computer and can route audio to an output that does not correspond to a physical
output. In most situations, each submix in a project should correspond to a physical
output on the audio interface or other hardware connected to your computer. Submixes
that do not correspond to a physical output will not be heard. You may set as many
submixes in a project to the same physical output device or output channel as you like.
If you choose None from the Output pop-up menu, you are effectively removing that
submix from the mix and from the final output.
