Stereo Separation?

[Mike Fugazzi <mikefugazzi@gmail.com>]

I am curious as to how others are using their gear to great stereo separation in recordings or on stage.  Right now, I run everything mono, but like the idea of going stereo.

My rig:

Mic
Chili Dog Octave Pedal

Line 6 M13
Boomerang III
Sans Amp Bass Driver DI
PA

Vids of my rig:

I play harmonica, hum bass lines, and beatbox into this rig.  The M13 and Boomerang are stereo, but I run them mono.  I like the idea of having the "bass" coming from one side and the rhythm parts on the other.  The beatboxing and lead playing would be from the center.

I am also thinking of using something like POD HD500 in place of the M13 and Bass Driver DI to allow me to pan patches.  Not only that, it would let me use different patches for each "instrument" before hitting the looper.  Right now, everything gets the same eq, etc, via the DI.  It works ok, but I have to compromise the tone of all three parts - harmonica, humming, beatboxing.  The HD500 would let me set up a harmonica patch, a bass patch, and a beatbox patch with only one stomp (which I do all the time to cycle effects from the M13)

Thanks for your thoughts!
