Send return help please - Solved!

Hi, Can someone please advise. Trying to send mono in and return stereo outs thru a Strymon Volante pedal. When hooked up using #3 mono out from the Axe-FX III into the Volante, and L&R from the Volante back into the Axe-FX III inputs 3 L&R (and M-plex set to row 4) I get no audio input on input # 3. Output 3 shows meter movement. What am I doing wrong? Cables have been changed. Please advise.

Is the Output 3 level knob turned up?
That is what I usually forget to do...

Row #4 out #3 is set to "3 o'clock"- 0 db

Is the Strymon definitely getting signal?

Are the physical volume knobs on the front of the Axe turned up?

LOL- well NO! Thanks Now to adjust the correct levels. Any advice besides just turning stuff up?
Thanks again.

OK, a productive weekend. I now have all 4 Strymon pedals (Volante not in pics yet) hooked up and controlled per preset as I want - via the Axe-FX III/FC-12 midi! Here's a "block-diagram" of what I did (kinda-sorta)... I drew this out not really knowing what the Axe-FX III had in the way of sned/returns, but it's close. Channel # 3 - in's and outs were used for the sends and returns in stereo. The Strymon "Nixie" software can also change the Strymon settings- best of both worlds now~!

The Morningstar MC-8 is not connected..., yet.
