LPB66Strat Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 New Sonic Port, attempting to output to an older Line 6 Spyder amp. All I get is a hell of a hum out of the amp, with a very low sound signal. Does this thing not play well with these amps... is it time to go find who has my old Stage 100? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silverhead Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 Not sure what role your Sonic port is playing in this setup. What else is it connected to, and what sound are you trying to send through it to the amp? Is it the Somic Port original or VX? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LPB66Strat Posted January 29, 2015 Author Share Posted January 29, 2015 Original Sonic Port. Guitar in to the input jack, regular cable from the output jack to the amplifier guitar input, current version iPad with latest software. Works fine through the headphones, but not to the amp. Just plugging that same amp cord into the guitar - old school, as it were - the amp is fine. This is an old and well used Spider, very early days when it was pretty difficult to get good tones set. Got the Sonic Port to get around having to deal with the settings on that amp, but I could just go out and get another amp if necessary. I don't understand why this isn't working, though, must admit. Thanks for the response! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silverhead Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 Make sure your Sonic Port 1/4" output is set to Guitar (maybe it's called Amp) level; not Line level. Also make sure you are using the mono output, and a mono guitar lead, from the SP to your amp input. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
