I'm missing something conceptually, and I haven't been able to find it in the documentation or on the foum, and I'm hoping someone can explaint to me how to do what I'm trying to do.
I have several instruments that have multiple outputs of varying formats. For instance, in Kontakt, I'll have instruments that have several pairs of stereo outputs. In BFD3, I'll have mixtures of outputs, some stereo, and some mono. These are for direct mono signals, stereo pairs of near or far mics, mono overheads, etc.
My issue is that I don't see how to create channels in VE Pro that map to these outputs. If I have multiple instances of, for instance, Kontakt, then I can assign each main stereo out to it's own output channel in VE Pro. But that's not the issue. The question is how to access any of the outputs of each instance individually.
I have good reasons for doing this. A kick drum might be used to trigger a side-channel on the compressor of a recorded (i.e. non-virtual) instrument, or several instruments. I may need to automate in my DAW the balance near and far mics in order to emphasize or make a part recede. It's not something I can do without, or work around.
