hooking up a power amp to amps

[Trauma Boy]

I am trying to figure out how to hook up my power amp to my markbass II and line 6 bass pod into my ampeg 15inch and basson 2x10.

I have a crown power amp and i want to hook it up to my line 6 and my markbass then to hook it up to my ampeg and basson. the thing is i don't know how to hook it up, i've tried the effects send and return in the markbass but still nothing.

please help!!

Bass > Pod > Markbass.

Markbass FX send > Power amp

Power amp > speakers

Bass > Pod > Markbass.

Markbass FX send > Power amp

Power amp > speakers

Yep

I still wonder why people buy a bunch of equipment if they don't know how to hook it up.

How do you know it's even worth having?

Yes, and yet it happens every day. Good luck to the op, hope you get what you're looking for.

For some reason the effects send don't work on the markbass? it bypasses the eq section, you have to use the balanced xlr into the poweramp.

Please don't take this personally, but the thing is, you have an LMII, a POD, and 2 cabs. That in itself is a gig-worthy rig. Plenty of players use alot less, and they work every weekend. Using a poweramp in this situation, seems a bit unnecessary. Sure, you could do it, actually it could be done with even better results by removing the Markbass head from the equation. Just go bass-POD-poweramp-spkrs. But it's your gear, so do whatever you want. It's just a little confusing as to why you feel the need to do this. And the previous comment, I'm sure, was more directed at how common these questions are. Like why do people put these rigs together, if they don't know how to connect it properly, there's a good chance they're doing something for no better reason then because they can. And, like I said previously, I hope you get it to work out like you want.

I figured but I just want to use this stuff because I can't sell this stuff I use to gig twice a week but not anymore and accumulated all this from time I do apologize I just don't want cr@p for asking for help. But I tried everyway and got no results wit effects ill keep on trying different ways. Anyone interested in a line 6?
