I am using my 112+ for an acoustic rig. I have the Dimarzio Black Angel pick system in my acoustic and run it into a Grace Felix so that I can EQ each pickup independently. I then run that into the PC 112+ and add a Martin IR. It sounds wonderful. THe problem is after that I take the XLR out to a QSC TOuchmix 16 and then to an EV Evolve 30 PA. Here is the issue. When I listen to everything going to the PC 112+ it sounds great....like a mic'd acoustic. If I turn the PC completely down and go through the PA, it sounds pretty much the same. When I turn the PC back up it sounds really tinny and perhaps phasey. Is there a phase switch on the PC? Or is something else going on? It would seem that what I hear in the PC should be what is sent to the PA. That is true as long as I turn the PC down to zero. I am kind of baffled.

Each guitar is assigned to a separate preamp/EQ. This way, I have a separate EQ for the baritone and the regular guitar.I will use the same TRS cable for both guitrs and then the switch will change which preamp it goes to. The EQ for the Baritone is so different from the D-18 for sure.

Thanks so much for all of your help. I do realize that I could use the Stomp XL (or maybe even my HX FX?) for all three instruments. However, the Grace Felix is the ultimate in an instrument preamps for me. So with the Dimarzio split signal from the piezo and magnetic and then separate channels of massive EQ on the Grace for each, I think I would rather use the Stomp more for FX. Besides, I have never liked the Line 6 EQs that much. Maybe operator error, but they seem a little too subtle for me. Maybe the Line 6 Stadium will someday be able to capture the Grace stuff?

I am still experimenting with using acoustic guitars with my Stomp XL, Here is my current issue: I have an acoustic and a baritone acoustic, both set up with the Dimarzio Black Angel system. Piezo and Magnetic TRS out and then each into it's own stereo preamp (which blends the signals as I like them....) and then out mono, one to my Powercab and the other to my Stomp XL. Right now I am using two separate TRS cables. It would be great to have a TRS to two TRS switching box. I can find a few that can do the TRS in to two TRS outs but they don't seem to have a footswitch. It seems like it would be a pain to mute one preamp, unmute the other when I could have footswitch that directs the signal to one or the other. Any ideas? I found a company in Canada called wounded paw audio that someone said could build me one but I haven't heard back yet. thanks in advance rick

This one might be for you amsdenj or anyone knowledgeable about IRS...... So correct me if I am wrong, but 1) Does using an IR on the PC send the IR sound to FOH? 2) What does the PC speaker default to when using an IR? FRFR? 3) In using an acoustic guitar IR, I assume that the IR (Say, a Martin acoustic) sound would also go to FOH and then the PC would be FRFR?

The problem was thatAll of a sudden my Right input didn't work. So I rebooted and that helped get the inputs both working. The biggest issue is I can't seem to get one of the instruments to mute when I switch from one to the other. Like I said, earlier today it was working. I am trying to figure out how to mute the patch that I am not using. The mandolin is muted when I switch to the baritone, but the baritone is on both the baritone patch and the mandolin patch.

So something happened. I had it all set up with Patch 1A being the Baritone and 1B for mando. Each had a pan blockwith one panned to the left and one to the right. I plugged the baritone into Left in and the mando into right in. I then went out the left mono out to my PC+. It worked and then later I went back to it and it didn't work. I could switch patches and the baritone came out on both patches with the mando not coming out on wither. I checked the cable of course. Not sure where to go.....

Since I am only using minimal blocks anyway, I went ahead with the Pan block method and it worked like a charm. Thanks you guys! rick

So on the mando patch I could set that to left and the baritone patchcould be right? And this would work even though I am using the left mono out?

I am pretty sure this is a pretty simple fix but for the life of me I can't figure it out. I want to run two separate patches on my Stomp....One for mandolin and the other for an acoustic Baritone. All this is running into a Powercab+. So the Mando is patch 4D and the Bari is patch 4C. I would like to plug the bari into left input and the mando into the right input and then send both out to the powercab from the output. When I do this I am stuck with both of them coming out of the output so if I am playing mando, the bari is on and vice versa. Any idea on how to be able to switch patches so that one or the other is switched off when the other is switched on? I can't use both inputs on the PC+ as I am already using one for something else. I can almost see what I need to do with the key word being almost. thanks for being here..... rick

I get what this forum is and I prefaced my question with "I was wondering...." I come here for opinions and not Line 6 facts. I respect the folks here and love to hear their educated guesses on this kind of stuff and find it helpful. Datacommando and rd2rk, I have gotten incredible help and opinions from both of you and am very grateful that you are both here! I have never been to the Digital Igloo, etc. and will for sure check it out. Thaks for the tip! rick

I am wondering if the Stadium would come out with a rack unit and floor control. I love not having to bend over to tweak my rack.(hmmmm, that sounded a little odd....) I can't remember if the Helix Rack/Control came out at the same time as the floor version or if it was later. It would be really great if they had a new rack unit that could utilize my old floor control.

I saw that the Stadium has a feature called NEXUX. The guy in the video said that one of the first updates on the Nexus feature will be making it compatible with Variax. I wonder if that means something for the Variax?

So I am using a Grace preamp into the PC with the IR on the PC. How do you blend the K&K and the IR. I can see how if I am using a Helix or Stomp but LMK if there is a way to do the blend on the PC. Also, what mandolin did you mic for your homemade IRs? thx

So I hooked up express edit to my unit. All of the FX show up as well as the amp models and cabs. The issue is that not everything is controllable. For instance, the reverb has all parameters listed and tweakable. The delay shows up and I can switch models but there are no controls for it. The modulation block is fully functioning but the distorion block and amp models are not. I saw another person on here had trouble with his on iOS and he got another unit and it worked. I would rather not do that as I bought it online and would rather not wait to send it in and get a new one if there is something I can do. Any help out there?
