Think multiple when using modelling technology. I use a digtech rp250 straight to the board. It has a switch for input to an amp or mixing console.

It is important to know that the patches will sound very different into an amp versus a board even with the switch. They will also sound very different at low and high volume. The easiest way to deal with this is to create two patches side by side with one for low and one for high volume. The other solution is to have them setup from 1 up for high volume and 1 down for low volume (the digitech devices will go either direction.) If you do this you will be able to handle switching between the volumes.

For what its worth I HATE not hearing myself through the monitors in our church. Monitor speakers are not tuned to a guitar the way guitar amp (ss or tube) are. We don't have floor monitors for the musicians at the moment so we are all struggling. The room volume is much better and our singers aren't yelling to hear themselves anymore so the experience is better for everyone but the players. Even our drummer has had to go to electric drums in order to control volume.

Have fun and remember it is ultimately for the AUDIENCE OF ONE!
