This question is more of one for preference and I realize that.
what I'm looking into is I recently upgraded my setup from a roland vs-1680 to a macbook pro running logic pro with an M-audio Projectmix I/O.
so for the first time I feel i have a setup where I can conveniently use my 8-outs with out freakin out. I am however a lil .... uh lets say apprehensive as to how I'm actually going to separately track out my beats. so I figured I'd see what others tend to do and kinda base my own layout from that starting point.
so far it seems best to lay out my kicks (i usually have about 3 of em stacked and a sub kick as well) on 1 output mono. then snares on 1 output, hihats and cymbals an rides ect on 1 output, sample loops on 1 stereo, and chopped samples on the other stereo and any odd synth pieces or various fx sounds on the last open mono.
should i be using the main stereo outs at all? what style do you usually use (yes i know it may change a bit from beat to beat but lets not over think it ok.) peace.
