Has anyone ever used 256 outputs ever? I want to know how live holds up at that level.

Mono? Stereo? Sample Rate? Bit Depth? Buffer Size?
Unless you specify all those conditions it’s a kinda meaningless question dontcha think?
Did you try it?
EDIT:
I did. I got 2000 instances/tracks playing of Max Cooper “Spectrum” simultaneously before I got bored and gave up.
24bit 44.1k stereo WAVs / 256 samples buffer / hardware specs in sig
Is it a real world test? Nup! Does it prove anything? I dunno, it
was fun though! As the poet Solo once said:
“She’s fast enough for you old man.”
