Hey folks. First time posting and hoping for some advice.
I'm looking to play live again soon and was wondering how to handle getting the signal from my pedalboard through the DI output using the DI on my amp head. Reason I ask is because I run a Digitech Drop Pedal, an MXR Bass Octave Deluxe and an Ashdown Triple Shot with my Darkglass Microtubes 500 head, and I know that most venues like to DI the bass these days. But I need the effected sound to come through the DI.
I've experimented a little using the DI output on the head through to Logic X, but I'm only getting the amp signal, without the pedal sounds. I don't know if I need to run the pedals through the effects loop (if it's even safe to do so with the Triple Shot) or if there's some other method that I need to use to achieve this. It's especially important for songs using the Drop Pedal as I'm unable to cart around multiple instruments for different tunings and I need that signal to go to FOH to be in tune with the rest of the band.
Hope that's enough info. Any advice would be very much appreciated.
Thanks in advance!
