Outlining as a revision tool

I'm doing an outline of my current project. I just finished the second draft, and it's now time for me to corral the free, wandering, rambling manuscript. To look at the plot threads and pacing, to watch where each character appears. This is a macro edit. Once the scenes and the plot threads are all in the right place, I can return to micro-editing, the scene-by-scene and line-by-line wordsmithing. Right now, it's all about the big picture.
