Retaining Stereo for FOH but without Amp block on my real amp

Hello

 

I've been reading and reading about a solution but really couldn't find any. I use stereo blocks and ambient sounds with a parallel path and would like to give this sound to the FOH including the Amp and cab modeling but then I want to go my real amp in mono obviously without the amp block. Is it doable? Thanks a lot! This would save me from bringing two amps on stage.

Send the same signal to your clean amp, or FRFR in mono.  Problem solved.  Otherwise your whole balance will be weird especially if you run delays after the amp.  Read my post about how to run your signal.  The simpler the better.  Trust me, I toured all over Europe, US and Canada, so I know what works with the Helix. 

 

Cheers!

Are you using the fx in front of the amp (amp used as a pedal platform) or in the fx loop?

 

Yes in front of the amp, no FX loop

I would rather use two amps on stage or no amp at all. I'm talking about free jazz ambient sound with loops and stuff like that, otherwise I wouldn't care.

The only way I can think of is using a Send block in front of each amp model. You'll then have to mix the two signals externally. Some amps have multiple inputs. 

yeah I think I'm gonna go mono to FOH and with a send block to my amp that's it. Does it make any difference if I use just the LOutput with a TRS to FOH or I use both LR Outputs with 2 TRS? I wish Line 6 would update the manual with more connection diagrams, when this is a very important step and easy to screw up.

This is what I do; I use the headphone output for my own on stage stereo monitors (you can set the Stomp's output volume to control only the headphone output) and use the main outputs for FOH. I don't have to change anything to my presets.
