[j.m]

would someone please enlighten me.

I've posted this a few days ago in the - so many gear...... - section, but no-one answered me.


I've read alot about using DI's on synth's and keyboard's for better signals.


But how do I incorporate fx boxes, eq's, compressors and stuff?


Let's say I have a motif (unbalanced) - wanna send it through my eq (balanced) into DAW/AD (balanced).

motif -> DI -> eq -> DAW - right???

BUT what if want to compress it before I hit the DAW?

Namely ----> motif (unb) -> eq (b) -> RNC compressor (unb) -> DAW (b)


HOW do I incorporate different outboard with different inputs/outputs (balanced/unbalanced)?????????????????


I'm totally lost on this - please help.


thanks in advance
