To set the output for a submix in the Mixer
µ
In the channel strip for the submix, choose the output channel or set of channels from
the Output pop-up menu.
The options listed in the Output pop-up menu depend on the number of available physical
outputs and the number of submixes in your project. For more information about setting
the output, see
Setting Hardware Outputs .
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.
To select an audio interface as the output device
µ
Choose Apple menu > System Preferences, click Sound, then click the Output button.
Select the audio interface in the list that appears.
For more information about these settings, see Setting the Audio Input and Output .
