Streaming

The M20d will stream 20 channels of audio to your computer via USB, and receive a

stereo return stream back from your computer. The use case for this would be when you’d

like to record M20d unprocessed channels for editing in your DAW.

For USB audio streaming, you must download and install the Line 6 StageScape

M20d Driver at http://line6.com/software.

Input Streaming Conﬁguration

The M20d streams 20 inputs to your computer and a stereo return stream back to the

M20d in the following input streaming channel conﬁguration:

• Channels 1-16: M20d Mic/Line Inputs 1-16, pre-processing / pre fader

• Channels 17-18: M20d stereo Aux Input, pre-processing / pre-fader

• Channels19-20:M20dstereoMainOuts,post-processing/post-fader

USB Stereo Return Stream:

The stereo return is streamed to the M20d’s stereo Aux Input (channels 17/18).

Note: In order to hear the stereo return, a Stage Icon Preset must be assigned to the Aux

Input using the M20d touchscreen UI. The Laptop preset is ideally suited for this purpose,

and can be found in the Stage Icon Gallery.

On that page you will ﬁnd 3 drop down menus. On the All Products drop down menu

select M20d StageScape. On the All Software drop down menu select Drivers.

On the last drop down menu select the operating system of the computer you wish to use

with your M20d StageScape. Once the download has completed, ﬁnd and run the M20d

StageScape Drivers Installer, then follow the onscreen installer directions.

In your DAW you will need to change your audio interface to ASIO M20d StageScape. Then

create new audio tracks in your DAW with inputs that correspond to the inputs on the

M20d. Note: If you are using the StageScape DX/MME driver, make sure that StageScape

is selected as the default audio device in Windows. Also, know that you will only get

audio from inputs 1-2 if you are recording with DX/MME.

The Windows StageScape M20d USB 2.0 audio driver uses WDM and ASIO, supported

on 32 and 64 bit OS conﬁgurations. The Mac OS X StageScape M20d USB 2.0 audio

driver uses CoreAudio, supported on 32 and 64 bit OS conﬁgurations.
