JTV Acoustic Guitars to PA

Just completed the Dream Rig with the addition of the JTV-59 and really enjoying it.  I am (finally) getting some of the sounds I have been reaching for.  What I have not been able to figure out is how do I route the JTV acoustic guitars  to my PA rather than through the DT25?  I have read the threads but not been able to execute.

 

JTV-59 ... VDI....HD 500.... L6 Link....DT25  (also have a PA for vocals and acoustic)

 

Thank you in advance!

    The standard and simplest way is to take a line from the fx loop to the pa set mix to 100% and when using acoustic sounds engage the loop to stop signal getting to dt25 and send to pa. This may not be ideal depending on whether you use loop but even then an a/b box with this setup is probably best

    After you have the Fx loop routed and set to active look in your fx chain and see if you have amps active ("turned ON"). Just turn them ("OFF"). Now you by pass the dt amps signal path and go straight to the fx loop connected to your PA. If you are looking for the amp model to be a part of your chain just move it to the left, to be in front of FX Loop. I make sure the fx loop mix is set to 0. This will make sure no sound comes out the dt amp

    I'm new to this rig, There's no way to route your signal to the XLR's ONLY (shutting off signal through the link to the DT) when using acoustic models? Seems like a waste of these balanced outs. And I plan to use the HD500 loop for other things (like my Bonamassa wah), since this is such a closed system, and you cant just stick an overdrive or wah in front of it, if you wish to use the Variax cable.
