Pro Tools Mixing: Multi Outputs

Video Transcript

"Another thing you can do within Protools is send a track to multiple outputs. You can send it to multiple tracks. As many as you really want. What you've got to do is you've got to hold down the control key. Once you hold down the control key click on the output of the track. Once you've done that it'll bring up different options and different outputs. What you can do is you can highlight another one and a plus sign will appear. When you click on the output, again you're going to see that it's going to one, two as well as three, four. You can do this with any of the tracks as many times as you want. This adds, you know, a certain thickness to certain tracks and things like that. It definitely helps you as far as busing and routing and things like that. If you click - if you highlight another track you know like one, two, without holding the control key, it's going to take off the multi send and just route it towards one output. Now with the multiple output this is also helpful as far as the buses, but the buses can't be multiply sent. You actually have to individually send those to separate tracks. Now if you send it to output remember that it's going to take the whole track and everything that's within it. It's going to take all the effects and all the reverb and whatever effects you put onto it. It's also going to go with that single."
