Fast Setup, Intuitive Mixing, and Easy Multitrack Recording!

The StageScape M20d introduces a new future for live sound. It automatically senses when you plug in a microphone, an instrument, or a speaker, and sets up the channel accordingly. A big, colorful touchscreen gives you interactive control over every part of your show, while intuitive interaction with EQs, effects, feedback suppression, and more makes mixing a breeze — even for novices! You can even run a soundcheck while the band isn't playing as well as mix remotely via iPad! Then easily record your show in high-quality multitrack audio — with or without a computer! With Line 6's StageScape M20d, the future is here!

A New Way to Control Your Mix

The StageScape M20d's touchscreen display gives you instant access to an array of mixing functions that are usually spread all over a typical mixing board. Need to get a great vocal sound fast? Plug in your vocal mic and select a vocal effects preset; the StageScape M20d will configure a custom chain of processors specifically for vocals, ready to tweak to perfection. Setting up a stage mix is easy too — just plug in all your sound sources and speakers, and the StageScape M20d will automatically recognize what's plugged into it. Routing signals, adding effects, and even setting up monitor mixes is as effortless as playing connect the dots. To speed things up even more, you can select one of the professionally crafted DSP presets for your channel and save and recall a huge number of your own presets!

StageScape + StageSource

The perfect combination for intelligent "touch" mixing and crystal-clear audio quality! StageSource Speakers

Combine the StageScape M20d with Line 6's StageSource speakers to create a complete, intelligent live sound system that provides clean, clear, studio-quality sound. Use the convenient L6 Link capability to digitally network your system, and the StageScape M20d will make speaker management, signal routing, and system optimization easier than ever!

Powerful Signal Processing

The DSP built into the StageScape M20d replaces multiple racks of gear that you normally need to get the best live sound. You get multiband feedback suppression on every mic input for squeal-free performance, even with the most difficult stage setups. And in addition to a host of EQ, dynamics, and effects processors available for every channel, there are four stereo master effects available for adding a final polish to the entire mix. With 100 pro-quality audio processors and 32-bit floating-point processing, the StageScape gives you pristine audio and at high-resolution throughout. Pro-sounding live mixes are within your reach — even if you've never used a mixing board before!

Effects include:

  • + Multiband feedback suppression
  • + Parametric EQs
  • + Gates
  • + Multiband compressors
  • + Dynamic EQs
  • + Delays
  • + Compressors
  • + Limiters
  • + and more!

The Ins and Outs

Plug in all of your sound sources, and the StageScape M20d automatically recognizes which are microphones and which are instruments — and optimizes your channel strip and effects settings for them! Using visual cues to route signals and set up monitor mixes, you can manage your audio routing easily via the touchscreen interface. And via Smart Speaker mode, your main PA speakers and subwoofers are automatically self-configured, panned, adjusted, and optimized!

Soundcheck

Thanks to the StageScape M20d's Quick Capture soundcheck features, you can record up to 20 seconds of audio to the internal memory from any of the inputs. The recording plays in a loop, so you can optimize each sound while the band continues setting up. Plus you can set up and adjust the StageScape M20d from anywhere in the room with your iPad! Make mix adjustments from different parts of the room and even tweak monitor mixes right from the stage!

Record Your Show

In addition to using the 20 seconds of Quick Capture recording, you can also record your entire show in high-resolution 24-bit WAV files to an SD card or a USB drive, or directly to your Mac or PC! The WAV files are recorded pre-effects, so the raw tracks can be processed and mixed later in your favorite DAW software, such as Avid Pro Tools or PreSonus Studio One.

Records to:

  • • Internal Memory (20 seconds)
  • • USB Drive
  • • Mac or PC Computer
  • • SD Card

The Stagescape M20d is a revolutionary product. While it is marketed at making getting a decent sound easier for non-engineers, it has many features that make it very desirable, even for experienced ... read more [+]engineers. First off, it contains a huge number of high quality effects, from compressors to gates, delays, reverbs, doubling, limiting, EQs, feedback suppression . . . While the m20d is not cheap, to buy all these units would be prohibitively expensive and the racks would be huge and weigh a ton! Not to mention all the knobs to bump and cables to get old and patch contacts getting dirty. I am a singer/songwriter/performer who has worked as a professional sound eng for 30 years as my "day job." The last thing I want to do at a gig is spend a long time as the sound eng. This unit effectively has freed me from that. And while the quick tweak interface in aimed at the novice, it's quick and easy to get good results. And if you're so inclined, it's simple to go in and deep tweak, say adding 3 dB of 8k to a mic and widening the Q. Add the ability to record a 20 second loop and go out into the audience to tweak the sound from an iPad and we are firmly into the realm of "revolutionary." This has already improved my live sound. With all my years of experience, I never realized how profoundly hearing my own voice through my head was affecting my solo sound checks. The ability to go in the audience and hear my own vocal purely through the sound system is a big deal! Finally, you can record performances multitrack (at the inputs), no hassle, right onboard onto an SD card or USB stick. I add one mic for the room and one on my guitar amp (neither to mains), load it onto my DAW after the gig and . . . wham! Instant high quality multitrack recording. BTW, I use it with 1 or 2 Bose L1s with 2 subs, singing and playing keyboards, electric and acoustic guitars, and iPad based backing tracks.

The m20D is a wonderful unit. It's rock solid and sounds really good. Like any unit aimed at non-engineers, it does have some quirks and minor limitations. To make a complicated unit easy-to-use this is unavoidable. The price gave me pause at first but for all it does it's a value almost beyond belief. A great investment. close [-]
