I have a great Fender Rumble 100 amp.  However, the d.i. signal vanishes when you turn down the amplifier volume.  I need the signal to remain for the mixing desk even when I turn my amp down.  In this case the p.a. monitors and IEM's give me the sound I need.  Do you know of any amps that will do this?  I've tried asking the manufacturers but not sure the front-line staff will understand the issue.

Technical information from the Fender site for the Rumble 100 states (my bold...) ...

 

ADDENDUM / TECHNICAL NOTE
Due to ongoing supply issues, some units may be built with an
alternate power supply and amplifier module. This will not change
the audio performance of the product; however, these units
require a 4-ohm speaker rather than the original 8-ohm specification. Should replacement of a speaker ever be required, qualified
service personnel should note the impedance rating (8 ohms or 4
ohms) indicated on the speaker itself and use a replacement with
the same impedance rating.
Additionally, units built with the alternate power module include
the added pre/post switch that lets the user set the XLR output to
provide pre- (direct) or post-preamp/EQ signal.

 

It would depend, then, on the exact model of your amp whether it has this feature or not.

I don't think I've had an amp where the DI output was affected by the volume, that seems like a weird way to build an amp to me. But maybe it's common enough, I don't know...
