Thanks to one and all who can help.
P.S. I hope this was the correct place to post this.
Hey there, welcome to the forum!

I think what you're going to want is a stereo bus (this would give you most control).

Go to your I/O setup window, go to the bus tab, create a new stereo bus (call it whatever you like, I'll use "Vox Bus" for this), press ok.

Then, go to the I/O of your 6 vocal tracks. You can view this on the edit window but most commonly on the mix window. Change the output routing of all of the 6 vocal tracks to "Vox Bus". You can do this quickly but selecting all the tracks, then holding down shift+option while you change the output of any of the 6 tracks.

Create a new stereo aux track. Set its input to "Vox Bus", set its output to whatever your vocal tracks used to be.

Each of the 6 vocal tracks should have an independent panner. You can pan whichever 3 to one side and the other 3 to the other side (or anywhere in between that sounds cool).

Hope that helps! Have fun!
