Not that I know of. You cannot patch the audio from the timeline tracks to two separate output tracks. When I do this I have a mixdown...stereo on 1 and 2, and then the mono mix on 3 and 4.

Herb,
I think you want to open your Sequence settings and under the Audio tab, set the audio outs to 4, then set your first two outs to be stereo, and the second to be mono. At least that's how I would do it if I were laying back via a Kona card.

Jamie -
I have the audio outputs set to 4 channels:
Stereo pair on ch.1 & ch.2, dual mono on ch.3 and ch.4.
However in the timeline you have to set where each audio track is output to , you can choose either 1&2,3 or 4. so I can set tracks 1 & 2 to output to stereo pair 1&2, but I can't figure out anyway to route those tracks to the mono mix outputs. If i simply copied the pair to tracks 3 & 4, then I would get each track alone as a mono track on 3 & 4 but that's not a mono mix.
It seems like the only way to do this is export an audio file, convert it to a mono mix, then lay that track down on 3 and 4. I was hoping there was some way to internally do the mono mixdown in final cut.
