So there is some confusion for me regarding the outputs on the stomp. Mostly due to this video:
Like others, I am currently running my stomp outputs using a couple of diy TRS -> XLR connectors and have had great success. I have seen reports of people experiencing ground noise when using their stomp, which I believe could be solved by placing a latching switch (ground lift) on the ground wire of my DIY TRS -> XLR connectors. Which leaves me wondering: are there any advantages you gain by using a direct box with the stomp outside of having a ground lift switch?
