I'm not sure exactly what it is that you want here.
But trace output goes to stderr. You can capture stderr to a file like this...
exec 2>errorlog
set -x
That will send all stderr to the file. If you have some stderr stuff that you want the user to see, you will need to handle stderr for each command that might send something to stderr:
command 2>/dev/tty

stderr
FD(4) BSD Kernel Interfaces Manual FD(4)
NAME
fd, stdin, stdout, stderr -- file descriptor files
DESCRIPTION
The files /dev/fd/0 through /dev/fd/# refer to file descriptors which can be accessed through the file system. If the file descriptor is
open and the mode the file is being opened with is a subset of the mode of the existing descriptor, the call:
fd = open("/dev/fd/0", mode);
and the call:
fd = fcntl(0, F_DUPFD, 0);
are equivalent.
Opening the files /dev/stdin, /dev/stdout and /dev/stderr is equivalent to the following calls:
fd = fcntl(STDIN_FILENO, F_DUPFD, 0);
fd = fcntl(STDOUT_FILENO, F_DUPFD, 0);
fd = fcntl(STDERR_FILENO, F_DUPFD, 0);
Flags to the open(2) call other than O_RDONLY, O_WRONLY and O_RDWR are ignored.
IMPLEMENTATION NOTES
By default, /dev/fd is provided by devfs(5), which provides nodes for the first three file descriptors. Some sites may require nodes for
additional file descriptors; these can be made available by mounting fdescfs(5) on /dev/fd.
FILES
/dev/fd/#
/dev/stdin
/dev/stdout
/dev/stderr
