Exporting Multiple Mono Tracks in Logic

When I select and export multiple mono tracks at a time (vocals mainly) in Logic how can they stay in mono format? It always defaults to stereo when I check it back in my DAW.

Mac mini, macOS 14.6

I agree, this is annoying.


You have to uncheck Include Volume/Pan Automation.


Please note, the volume fader is then not reflected in the export. To maintain the levels, you have to go through every channel strip, insert a Gain plugin at the end of the plugin-chain, set the gain to the same level as the volumefader and set the fader to 0 dB.


I do this always when sending out tracks to someone. In the beginning, it's a time wasting procedure, now it's just an annoying routine that I got used to.


Please send a feature request to separate volume from pan in the export section.
