Axe-FX II > QSC K-12 > FOH

[devbro]

I Picked up a K-12 and want to the best way to reconfigure my rig. Need some advice.

Previous Set-up:

• Axe-FX direct to FOH
• Most patches are stereo L&R to FOH
• IEMs from board to monitor

Desired set-up:

• AXE-FX to K-12 for guitar stage monitor
• K-12 to FOH

Option 1: Run AXE-FX balanced out L&R to A and B channels of K-12 (I believe K-12 will sum stereo into mono). Send XLR to FOH from K-12 Sum output. I'm ok with sending mono to FOH
Option 2: Rework all my stereo patches to mono and run a single Axe-FX balanced out to K-12 channel B. Then run K-12 Channel B out to FOH
Option 3: ????

thanks

Why bother summing to mono at the K-12?

You could set the Axe Fx to use Output 1 Mode as SUM L/R. Send one side to the K-12 and one to FOH

That’s an interesting option. Supposedly the K12 mirrors the output in each side which would prevent me from reaching around the back of the AxeFX. Smart man. Thanks

Output 1 to k12
Output 2 to foh set to copy output 1
Leaves you able to independently control k12 volume from axe
Up to you if you send mono or stereo to either

Same as above, ran for 10+ years. separate to k12 and FOH so you can adjust levels without worrying blowing out the FOH. Still do the same with my III.
