I used to be able to select as output from a track or bus, various hardware outputs as follows.

FF1-2 left or,
FF1-2 right or,
FF1-2 stereo

Now, no matter which single one I select all 3 options become ticked.
It doesn't matter if the track is mono or stereo.
The problem this causes is that I can no longer select a mono output.

Inputs can still be selected singularly or the stereo option.

Anyone else want to see what results they get.

 I noticed that all three L/R/Stereo options are now checked, even when one side is not used by any output but it doesn't appear to be affecting the ability to route signals to mono outputs, independently, except in the case of External Inserts which have always used up both sides of a stereo pair and can't be routed to an output if one side is already in use.

Hmm I'm not seeing this issue, maybe I'm barking up the wrong tree.
Is it possible to have a screenshot posted? I might be missing a step here.

Thanks...

Even though it doesn't prevent you from routing to a mono output it now becomes impossible to tell which side of the stereo pair you're connecting to. I have to do more testing later this week but I don't think I can connect to adjacent mono outputs as the whole stereo output is taken up with that one out put taking up 2 tracks. Not quite sure how to word it.
 
I'll see if some others find an issue with it. Aint it strange; I open a new update and within 30 seconds I uncover an issue that didn't exist before when this is the update to fix all things.

Granted it's a little confusing/misleading, but as far as I can tell it's just a display issue. X2 and earlier versions didn't show check marks next to the currently assigned output in the listbox at all so you can really just ignore them.
 
As in those earlier versions, the Output widget still shows that it's assigned to only one side of the stereo pair after you make the selection. And mono output assignments still function independently as intended.
 
 
 
 

I tried to select outputs in X2 and Stereo outs are the only options there.
Can't see any changes in X3e. I'm using RME fireface UFX

In order to be able to select mono outs, you have to enable the Mono Outputs checkbox at the bottom of the Devices page under Preferences > Audio.

aarrrghh, novice mistake !
 
And now can I seletct mono outs when using external inserts too... Learning something everyday.
Thanks brundlefly!

Glad to help. The learning (and re-learning) never stops with an app as deep and broad as SONAR.

Thats true.
By the way, there's no checkmarks when selecting outputs in the external input module....
