Pro Tools Carbon - Is there is a way to send Mon L-R to Output 7-8?

I’m happy you guys are audio enthusiasts, but sometimes a workflow is important too and mine is just like that. So I will continue to mistreat and torture my Carbon as described for a long time.

I believe for every Central Station I've pulled out of a studio and trashed, an angel gets its wings.
So far there are 6 new angels.

I've got one studio left to gut and that one is getting trashed this year . They are coloured, have low headroom, and mismatch between left/right which affects stereo image (turn the vol pot and watch how the image shifts!) There is also a lot of crosstalk between inputs.
But, no, not a crime yet.
(would be if I was in charge )

The Carbon actually has a good, accurate monitoring section (a feature!) and even a passive speaker switcher would keep the benefits.

But to each their own. Just needling you since I was surprised to see a Central Station in the same room with the Carbon.

I guess that's fair, after all you should see what Americans do to pasta .

Yes, and because Monitor L-R is an additional Output for YouTube ETC ..... and using the Dangerous Mon ST would be cool to change it internally... and that can be done thru the speakers outs.... but sadly is not assignable in the Pro Tools I/O .... and because I want Out 1-2 to be the default ITB pro tools Bus Output.

and If I want to use Monitor C (3-4) Pro tools Carbon interrupt output 1-2 ...

so seems that just the TRS cable to XL is the only way to change the Monitor where ever I want

sorry to hijack, but I have a monitor controller question and did not find clues in search. Maybe you could offer an opinion. I am monitoring my Carbon via Martinsound MultiMAX, which I like because I can control trim levels to each set of my three monitor paths (Dynaudio BM15A, Avantone MixCubes, + Home-style Klipsch). Have you seen/done any testing, or have opinion, if MultiMAX is high enough quality signal path to retain best monitoring fidelity from Carbon? Since the MultiMAX It is overkill for me in that it can support surround, I've been thinking of Coleman MP3HMK3 or Dangerousmusic D-Box+. Thoughts on those? Thanks!

Used a MultiMAX EX for years. Great unit. Very configurable. It's accurate.
My only issue ever with it was that it is unbalanced (at that price level.) But not something to worry about if you are running short distances. (We had rooms with lots of cabling and equipment using these.)
Have used/use the Dangerous Music ST/SR. Also great (and relays for channel matching precision.) Balanced. Only issue is they are a little fragile (need to mind all the cautions written in the manual for powering and plugging cables.) Less configurable/less convenience with configuration than the Martinsound. Almost all the rooms with Central Stations were replaced with Dangerous ST or ST/SR.

Haven't used the DBox+ or Coleman.

The Italians might have stolen it from the Chinese so the Chinese can do whatever they want. I've not seen any Chinese restaurants (in the USA or China) making cream based carbonara or cream based pesto sauces. The USA use of cream in so many pasta dish drives me crazy. I spent a lot of time working in Europe, used to love visiting Milan (and Barcelona, and Oslo, and Prague, and...).

Thoroughly OT, but Japanese uni pasta and Korean kimchi (or bulgogi) pasta both can use cream. Not Chinese per se but, treading carefully here due to historical animosities, there are cultural relations.
(And all are delicious)
