    yes, another post…

    I’ve made my presentation of multichannel tools last week, and I had a little problem when I switched to Podium (people were very impressed, most of them were Mac users and they have disovered that it exists other software in the world than Protools !!!).
    The automatic setting of the outputs of the busses to the outputs of the audio interfaces is cool, but is there a way to manually set the order of them ?
    That is to tell for exemple that a 8 channel bus goes to outputs 1-4 and 9-12 rather than 1-8 ?
    And to store theses settings with the song ?

    And another question that I had postponed : how to obtain separate mono files from a multichannel track (inside Podium) ???
    An option for exporting each channel as a mono wave file in the menu File / Save sound as will be much appreciated 😉

    Thanks once more…

    It’s hard to keep up with you today 🙂

    No.

    Not possible in one mapping, but maybe you could experiment with splitting it up into two mappings.

    And another question that I had postponed : how to obtain separate mono files from a multichannel track (inside Podium) ???

    Only way is to change the number of channels in the sound properties and then save it for each channel. Not an easy solution, so:

    An option for exporting each channel as a mono wave file in the menu File / Save sound as will be much appreciated

    I’ll add that to the plan. I’m curious; what program are you using that requires individual wave files for each channel?

    There is two circumstances where it is needed :
    – for DTS or AC3 encoding, most encoders need separate mono files
    – for playing multichannel musics in concert with different softwares : multichannel files support is yet very rare (for more than 12 channels there is only Podium and Max/Msp) and the output assignement to loudspeakers and levels control is easier…
