frankencat Posted November 5, 2019 Share Posted November 5, 2019 Can the headphone output be configured for use as a send to the PA? I tried it briefly once to drive my frfr floor monitor and it sounded weird, I am guessing because of the impedance maybe? I would like to use it to run to the house because it can be setup so that the volume knob does not affect it. Thanks in advance. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phil_m Posted November 5, 2019 Share Posted November 5, 2019 I think you have it backwards. The volume knob will always control the headphone volume. It can be set so that it doesn't affect the main outs, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In regards to the headphone out, you can use it as an output for something like a monitor, but it isn't as hot as the actual main outputs. If it were me, I would stick to the main outs for the FOH.

frankencat Posted November 5, 2019 Author Share Posted November 5, 2019 Ok I see what you are saying after looking it up in the manual again. So same questions then, should the headphone out sound the same as the main outs? Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saucyboy123 Posted November 10, 2019 Share Posted November 10, 2019 I’m wondering the same thing. Well for me, my headphone out actually sounds better than my main L/R outputs. What do you do u guys think I should do? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What are you using to amplify it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buji Posted December 6, 2019 Share Posted December 6, 2019 I'm curious about this as well. On my miniboard that I'm building around the HX stomp, it might be more physically convenient to use the headphone out than the normal outputs. currently I'm tearing down my board trying to make room for just one more critical pedal (sigh).
