create a 6xmono instance of Ti C. in Logic

This would be cool for those projects that don't require stereo outputs....as it stands all we have is the 3x stereo option which is nice, but is also limited.......

I 100% agree, same issue in Cubase as well.

why don't you make those mono? hard pan the signal, split the aux channel and there you go. a plug-in always has a fixed layout, in this case 3x stereo. you cannot change that layout later, therefore we figured that offering say, a 2xstereo, 2xmono mode would limit us in the end because it's much harder to create a stereo signal from 2 mono sources.

Thanks for the info Marc, I suppose I am just ignorant on the whole split the AUX channel part in Cubase. I am unsure how to go about this. I know other plugins, such as Halion, let you choose whether you want Mono or Stereo and it sets up the bus according to your choice so there is no splitting or panning involved, it just works.

the more outputs you have the more it doesn't matter. with e.g. 10xmono and 5x stereo you get the blend you need. with 3 stereo outs, that's a bit difficult. i wish the whole protocol would allow for dynamic output configurations but it doesn't.

splitting a stereo file into two mono files i find relatively easy. hard pan the outs in the virus (left is one mono channel, right also). create two sends, from the aux output with the hard panned virus signals and send those into preferably two mono channels. think patch bay.

Thanks for the additional info Marc. I will surely look more into what you wrote above and see what I can come up with. Would definitely be sweet to get a little more patches playing simultaneously instead of just 3. When I do Bass I am doing mono anyways, so I waste a potential other output not being used by using a stereo out for a mono signal.

Unless I'm missing something there is no way to use additional aux's in Logic to split the stereo feed based on the panning inside Ti C. The problem is you cant choose where your send comes from, only whether it's pre or post fader and whether it's post pan........if I could could choose to feed the send from the left or the right channel then this would work.........Were you referring to cubase with this example?

I just realized, maybe you were thinking of Logic 7? Since Logic eight, you can't manually add aux's with instrument outputs as their inputs, you have to choose a multi version of the plugin, and hit the little plus sign on the instrument track to add the auxs, whether you make them mono or not you only get two auxs plus the actual instrument track, so making them mono doesn't really help you isolate anything because you are essentially loosing the other channel (i.e. left or right signal)......

here's an example for logic 9:

- create stereo channel
- set output to free aux channel (which will automatically create an aux channel for you)
- create another aux channel with the same number, so you have two identical ones
- long click on the stereo icon underneath the meter of the aux channel and change it to either left or right

i've attached an example for logic 9, it doesn't use sends as an insert as mentioned in my original example but as a buss. i've decided that i find this more elegant :)

I'm assuming Cubase doesn't haver a more elegant method? How about uploading an example for us Cubase 5 users to see for ourselves? :love:

Thanks for all the help Marc.

i don't know my way around cubase as much, sorry fringe. but i'm sure somebody in here is :)

have a great weekend guys!
