Multichannel state of things

[Morphoice]

Ahoi!
I'm back taking up work on my liunndrum clone drum machine plugin again and was wondering if someone has worked with multichannel outputs lately and can tell me anything about the state of things there. Is it working properly with cubase? It would be a blast to have every drum sound routed to its own output for obvious mixing reasons.

is there a complete working tutorial on how to set things up for multichannel? when I tried it a year ago i failed miserably
also what method of setup do I provide to the user? like a dropdown box on each instrument channel to select where to route it? or can I predefined everything?

All the best

@Morphoice You def can do that. Just make sure to set NUM_MAX_CHANNELS=INT? . I believe thats the right preDef. I have a drum machine im working on that uses 24 chnls. The plugin has breakout options for (ALL triggers --> Stereo) (1-16 triggers--> 12-Stereo Pairs). I grouped my outputs like Hats, Percs, Cymbals have group channels because we only get max 12 stereo pairs and drum pad vst's usually have 16 triggers. Thats the method im using rn. Works great. I havent tested in Cubase but it works fine in Ableton and Logic. Im able to print stems or route to external tracks for processing.
