Logic doesn't update buses layout

Hi everyone! I’ve been having an issue for days and it’s driving me nuts, maybe someone here could help me out! I’m trying to update a drum/sampler plugin to accept multi-output. The idea is to have a global out and 4 individual tracks (kick, snare, hihat, percussion).

While it works well on all the DAWs I tried, Logic is giving me a very hard time! It’s always giving me the options of the screenshot no matter what. While I was trying to get rid of the (2xStereo, 3xMono) option, I realised that even if I delete/add outputs, I get the same options in Logic but Reaper updates the layout.

So my question is, do you have a reliable method to reset how Logic treats the buses layout? I tried clearing “com.apple.logic10”, “AudioUnitCache”, “com.apple.audio.InfoHelper”, the command “killall -9 AudioComponentRegistrar”, changing the plugin version… To no avail.

If anybody could help, I’d be grateful, thanks! Have a good day!

Apologies to the original poster of this list but I can’t now find it on the forum but it sure helped me out with a similar probelm. The important one I think is deleting Logic’s prefs (which does mean you need to go back and re-enable “Advanced” features on next load).

I keep this in a script something like zap-plugins.sh

#!/bin/sh
sudo killall -9 AudioComponentRegistrar
rm ~/Library/Caches/AudioUnitCache/com.apple.audiounits.cache
rm ~/Library/Caches/com.apple.audiounits.cache
rm ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.audio.InfoHelper.plist
rm ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.logic.pro.cs
rm ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.logic10.plist
rm ~/Library/Preferences/com.cockos.reaper.plist
rm ~/Library/Preferences/Avid/Pro\ Tools/InstalledAAXPlugIns

It worked, thanks a lot!!!
The layout is still wrong but it’s a start haha.

That was probably me. No problem thanks for sharing it.
