Multi Monitor set up

[donrey]

So here is what I would like to do with my procontrol:

I would like to use all of the outputs from the procontrol without using the slate feature since this doesn't allow one to use the multi monitor feature.

example... I have three sets of monitors, and a headphone distribution system. Currently, the main switch is controlling Genelec 1031a's, the NS-10 are set up on the alt 3-4 and the production monitors are set up on the ALT 5-6. There is a free pair of outputs. I have found the only way to use these is to set up the procontrol in the slate function. Is there another way to have these outputs be active so that I can use the multi monitor feature? This output doesn't need to be controlled since the headphone amp has an input knob so it can be direct.

could you not just set up a headphone feed on outputs 7/8 or use a bus channel set for the headphone mix? You don't really need desktop control of that feed as you say there is a control knob on the phones amp.
