DI into Mixer, Audio Interface, or Other Outboard Gear
There is no sense relegating DL4 MkII to your pedalboard! You can also put it into your
signal chain when running D.I. into a mixer, audio interface, or other outboard gear to
wreak havoc in other sonic domains. Connect your guitar, bass, or keyboard into the
L/MONO IN. Or, connect your dynamic microphone into the XLR MIC IN. Then, run the
output (L/MONO out for mono, or include the RIGHT OUT for stereo) directly into your
line level device’s inputs.

Using with a Modeler
If you happen to be using a modeler, such as a Line 6 Helix
®
or HX
®
device (or one from
one of those other companies—we won’t judge), and you’ve been wanting to squeeze
even more tones out of it... You can now just patch DL4 MkII into the modeler’s effects
loop and let DL4 MkII handle the heavy lifting for your delay/reverb/looping. Optionally,
you can also connect a "MIDI" cable to sync presets and/or tempi between the devices,
and then run the whole rig out into a stereo amplifier (or even better, Line 6 Powercab
®
units!), for a super lean-and-mean setup. The following illustration shows you how.

NOTE: If you’re connecting to a modeler’s mono FX Loop, you only need to connect the
modeler’s (mono) Send to the DL4 MkII L/MONO IN, and the modeler’s (mono) Return to
the DL4 MkII L/MONO OUT.
