Stegesource And Pod

[Masterzone]

Hello Guys,

I have a question about the connection between ONE StageSource L3M and the POD HD PRO X rack.

I have my TC Electronic FireWorX connected in stereo ( both Sends and Returns are used ) into the rear FX LOOP jacks of my POD.

 

My questions are :  by using the special cable included, If I connect the L6 LINK OUT/THRU going into the L6 LINK IN connector of a StageSource L3M, do will it pass audio too? or only data?

Very important : only by using this special cable, do will I keep the stereo image of my effects? Or, everything will become stereo ---> mono?

Yes the L6 LINK connection passes stereo audio. The Stagesource speaker will accept this input from the POD and deliver full stereo sound.

Hi Silverhead,

even if I hope what you said, you are not right, because this is the response of the LINE 6' customer support

" Everything will end up mono with only one Stage Source. The speakers themselves are mono."

so  :( it's a pity!

Sorry I misread your post. Yes, if you are using only one speaker the sound is mono. But it's your speaker doing that - the L6 LINK connection is sending stereo, and if you had two speakers connected with L6 LINK you would hear stereo. Even if the Stagesource speaker were to maintain stereo within its 2-speaker system the stereo separation is too small (a few inches?) to be useful.
