What do I needed plug the stomp straight into the board. Exactly what cables and do I need a di box?


Hi,

 

Basically a 1/4” TRS to male XLR cable, as for a D.I. Box, some say yes while others say no.

 

This was discussed over on TGP a while back, you may like to check it out.

Hope this helps/makes sense.

A TRS-to-XLR-male adapter should work fine. I've used it this way on stage already with a self-soldered adapter.

However, I've run into noise issues when testing it in a rehearsal room on a board with a global phantom power switch. The Stomp didn't like to be fed with 48V at all…

Not a big deal for me as I have a regular DI box – the brilliant Tech 21 Q-Strip – which I'm taking with me as a "backup" anyway.
