Example:
AU has 1 stereo and 6 mono outs.
It creates 7 buses.
On first bus it allows to set 2-8 channels via StreamFormat property (this is for logic workaround, but NOT the right way)
On others it allows to set only 1 channel per element/bus

(Currently only the first bus with 8 channels are used in Logic;
all 7 buses with mono/stereo channels are used in Live 4 and maybe later in others.)
Thanks for the clarification, I agree with your suggestion.

Additionally the AU checks the AudioChannelsLayout property, as it expects the newer hosts with multibus/multichannel ability will also check this. This is not needed for hosts that don't support more channels then two per bus, as these will never try set more then two channels per bus.
So you mean that if the host sets bus 1 to 8 outputs and does not specify an AudioChannelsLayout, the AU will know that it's bad old Logic-style. This sounds very reasonable to me as setting 8 outputs without setting AudioChannelsLayout is something that "nice" hosts shouldn't do from how I understand it.
