[QUOTE="brian maddox, post: 48146, member: 158"] Re: Acoustic guitar into passive DI wow. bummer. it happens, though. and can make troubleshooting extremely frustrating, especially under the gun. i once pulled an sm58 out of our mic kit as a signal source to trace a bad line. went through the whole line [several multis, xlrs, etc.] only to discover at the end that the sm58 i pulled out was bad too. yeah, a 58. was. bad... grrrrrrr.... there've been times i was in similar situations [no sound check, small channel count, high profile gig] where i've run duplicate everything and fully line checked all of it, just to be safe. of course, i never had any issues when i did that. which i guess is the point... :) at least you found the issue and learned something. i hate when i have an issue like that and i'm never able to definitively find what the problem was. those keep me up at night...
