Hi,

Is it possible to host a te::Plugin with multiple stereo outputs on an AudioTrack ?  
Are the extra channels available a separate, sub-tracks too ?  
Basically just like LPX does it when you instantiate a multi-output instrument plugin.

The idea is to be able to add specific effects on these extra tracks and allow more advanced mixing.

Thanks!  
E.

After digging a little bit, it seems I’d need to wrap my multi-output `Plugin` into a Rack.  
Is that correct ?  
Thanks!

Yes, that’s correct, then you create multiple `RackInstance`s on tracks to assign the Rack’s output channels to the instances’s stereo channels.

It sounds complicated but should be straightforward when you know what the end result will be.  
We’ve got a new feature in an upcoming version of Waveform that does this automatically for multi-out plugins which would show it nicely but the above is basically what we’re doing under the hood.
