microtoneaudio Posted August 25, 2020 Share Posted August 25, 2020 I intend to use a TRS 1/4" > XLR adapter cable for a balanced connection to mixer. Is Pod Go at risk if there's phantom power coming from the mixer? Or is it safer to use a DI box? Thanks in advance for any assistance with this.

cristt Posted August 25, 2020 Share Posted August 25, 2020 I've never had any problem using phantom power from the mixer to the various instruments that may be connected. Phantom power should not damage any equipment if it's connected via a balanced cable, which is general standard because 99% of mics have all XLR connection, and other devices most probably too, and if they're not you put a DI in between. So with the TRS>XLR adapter you should be fine, or, use a short standard mono (instrument) cable from the main out to a DI, and from there to the mixer with XLR cable.
