ghetto3jon · 16th December 2007

my vocal chain this weekend will be SCA N72 -> FMR RNC -> TC M-One XL -> MOTU 828mkII. but this means the signal will be balanced, then unbalanced, then balanced again. so my question is, will this result in any signal degradation?:

N72 -> xlrf to ts -> RNC -> ts to xlrm -> M-One -> xlrf to trs -> MOTU

and should the inputs on the MOTU be set up for +4 or -10? is the final signal reaching the MOTU considered balanced or unbalanced? all of the cable lengths are very short, so does it even matter?
