Moderators Lee Knight Posted April 14, 2008 Moderators Share Posted April 14, 2008 I want to accommodate my main monitors and my Avantone Mixcubes. My Events are setup on the monitor outputs of my 002, being fed by the Master Fader output. Is there a way to send the Master Fader out to say, the 7-8 pair and the monitor outs simultaneously? This way I could manually (externally) bring up the Events or the Mixcubes as needed... Any ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil O'Keefe Posted April 14, 2008 Share Posted April 14, 2008 Put a pre-fader aux bus on the master fader / output channel, and a stereo aux return, assigned to outputs 7/8, with input assignments correlating to the aux send bus you just set up, and create a mix / mute group, with one output muted and the other unmuted. That way, when you mute one, the other automatically unmutes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members nerol1st Posted April 15, 2008 Members Share Posted April 15, 2008 Check the DVD that came with PT. At one point they are recording and need to setup headphone mixes. It basically explains how to do this at that point in the DVD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So really, it appears I need a way to route the Master Fader to multiple outputs. I seem to recall reading a book talking of a little known feature routing to mulitple outputs. Of course the source of the read now escapes me. Anyone? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Zooey Posted April 15, 2008 Members Share Posted April 15, 2008 I usually do this by adding an output assignment to each track going to the main buss. I'm having a brain fart now, and can't remember the shortcut. edit: control click the output selector on Mac, start click on Windows. Select an additional pair of outputs. The output assignment will show up in italics to indicate that multiple paths have been selected. Sadly, this trick does not work on a master fader itself. You have to change the outputs of the individual tracks. This is the easiest way I've found to exactly mirror the main mix on an additional pair of outputs.

So you assign each track to an additional master? Master 2? I'm sure I can figure it out from here. Thanks again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In my case, Output 1&2 is the main buss by default, and other outputs are Output 3&4, 5&6, and 7&8. You can create a new master fader to control the overall level of the additional output pair.
