Mainstage Help. URGENT!

[pskjr]

Hello All,

It's been quite a while since I've posted, but I'm in need of some urgent help regarding Mainstage. Lately I've been using it at church as guitar amps to help cut down on stage volume. It's been a dream come true. In my current setup I run out of the pedalboard and into a channel on my Focusrite Scarlett interface (2 channel). I then pan the channel in Mainstage to the right/left, and run an XLR from each output on the back of my interface. It has been working very well and the guitarists have been loving the Amp Designer tones, however, tonight one of the guitarists asked if he could use his amp head because he uses the overdrive on the amp. Is there any way to set this up in MainStage with my interface?

I know I can use the Transparent amp in Mainstage and then just use Mainstage as the cab, but I don't know how to get from his amp to MainStage without screwing things up. Is it possible to go out his head, via speaker output, to the interface? The Scarlett has both XLR and 1/4" inputs, but I don't know if it will work. Would it be best to go with a 1/4" male out of the speaker out on the amp, and then convert to XLR male to go into the interface? Is this okay to do? Is there a better way to do it? Or should I not do this at all because I'll blow something up?

Feedback would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Please do not send a speaker level signal into your interface that wants to see line level.

I don't think you want that kind of feedback. J/K. You'll more likely get smoke.
