Never.

Geoff didn't say it was to avoid ground loops. In any case wiring signal hi to signal hi and screen to signal-lo at the balanced input removes the earth loop. Graham

No I (and Phalluson) didn't say anything about ground loops (though that is highly likely to be a problem). Induced hum and interference is what I am most concerned about. geoff

My ounboard eq goes to an unbal aux out, and my 'spare' 31 band eq is an Alesis 3630. Say no more .... geoff
