use roland cube street amp headphone out as line out?
Hello good people, I use a Roland Street Cube amp for guitar and vox
on small gigs and busking, it serves me well except there is no line out so i can't plug into the house sound board in the pub (where they demand to plug into their system so they can control the volume and spread the sound evenly throughout the pub with there speaker system). I want to use the Street Cube as a monitor/amp. How can i unmute the headphone out so i can use it as a line out and still hear the amp? Any advise is greatly appreciated. JJ |

JJ You may get a result if you open it up and bridge the contacts on the output jack. Put a DI box between the headphone output and the house PA. But before you do this, get the house engineer to simply put a mic in front of the Cube's speaker. This may not sound as crap as you'd expect! |

JJ Get the fellow at your local TV repair shop to go in there and move the wire so that the switch in the jack no longer disables the connection to the speaker. It's a ten-minute job but requires careful soldering. --scott -- "C'est un Nagra. C'est suisse, et tres, tres precis." |

JJ Who knows if this is useful now so long since original post, but ..... I used another method to create a line out. Bought a Response (brand) Speaker (High level) to Line Level converter (about $15) and installed it in the Cube by soldering wires onto the speaker wires and then drilling a hole in the back of the unit (there is room under the delay/reverb on the mic/line channel) and fitting a "Line Out" jack there. It is great using the cube as foldback for my vocal and guitar when playing with the band and a P.A. It also keeps my Vocal/ Guitar mix as I set it in front of house and means that I only need one input on the desk/P.A. instead of 2, which can sometimes be handy with a smaller rig. |

There is probably a switch inside the headphone jack that opens up the speaker output when headphones are plugged in. Either rewire the switch, or if the speaker terminals are accessible, wire a resistive divider across that and feed it through a DI into the desk. |
