Hi, I need to send the audio from the GR55, microphone and bass through a Q802usb Behringer mixer for the iPad. (Lightning adapter).

The idea was to record in Loopy HD two sources at a time (mic + guitar or mic + bass), without losing the stereo signal, but I know you need an interface with 4 or more audio outputs, as the Q802usb sends only Left / right, or at most two mono channels.

Keeping Q802usb, how to improve the GR55 signal in mono without losing much quality? For even using the mono output of the pedal, the signal loses much brightness and original quality.

A way around this issue?

Thanks

Id use the GR-55's  Left 1/4" Output (as that results in a mono signal) to feed input on your mixer.

Yes, as I mentioned above, already I tested using only the mono channel and other internal settings of audio output, but could not an acceptable outcome.
I think there must be some specific configuration for this, or will they?

Be sure to set the GR-55 OUTPUT Mode to "LINE/Phones"

and feed one of the Line Inputs  (yellow) on your mixer


With your setup - the resulting sound matches the sound of my GR-55

if you seek a far brighter tone - experiment by changing the GR-55 Output mode to one of the nine other types that suit your ears:

OK, thank you friend.
I'll try the internal settings of the GR 55.
