[QUOTE="Mike Caldwell, post: 146198, member: 170"] Re: Input confusion Anything coming from the stage that has a 1/4 or even an 1/8 inch output you want to use a DI box on the stage to plug the source into and then plug DI box into an XLR mic line going to the mixer. In the sound booth a direct 1/4 input can be handy to plug in a CD player, I Pod, computer, DVD player ect. However if you get any hum from those inputs creating a ground loop a DI is what you may have to go with there as well to take care of the ground loop. For what it's worth the SI Expression has four 1/4 inch line inputs. [/QUOTE]
