Re: [motm] How to connect balanced signals to the MOTM

2006-03-30 by Dale Kay

are you saying that all outputs form each module is very high like this before you link to the next?
or only the final is this high?

If this was the case, I would use a DI to patch in other items then back in.

  MOTM uses very large signals on the outputs: 10V pk-pk which is something like 
  +24dBu

  Most "studio" gear uses +4 dBu which I think is like 1.5V pk-pk.

  Mics need balanced cables because their outputs are in *microvolts* to say 5mv 
  (that's 0.005V).

  Since the 'driving' signal is so small, any hum or noise is *relatively 
  significant*.
