OK guys, you're my last hope!
I know, this is way off of Tascam related issues, but I know that here are some pros that might be able to help me out.
Currently I am trying to set up my Tascam DM 3200 to a patchbay (3 actually) - Neutrik NPPA-TT, so I got TT-conectors.
My first question is a mere general one:
do I hook up everything balanced? Or better: should I?
Second:
I got a wallbox with a 1/4" TS connector - you can't connect them balanced (it's a mono connector). So IF I should have to set up everything balanced, would it mean, I'd have to get a stereo 1/4" connector instead (kinda balanced mono)?
Third: I have an old Behringer power amp ha4400. The inputs to each headphone channel are 1/4" stereo connectors. I got a multicore cable from the ha to my patchbay, where at the moment it is going to be set up unbalanced stereo (meaning: ONE slot on the patchbay passing a stereo signal). Problem is: let's say I want to inject my output signal from my DM analog card, which is also routed to the patchbay, to one of the headphone channels. First thing is: the signal from the analog card is mono, so if I plug it into the input to the headphone amp, I will get most likely the same signal on both ears, or maybe just one side of the signal.
So, what is the pro solution here?
Thank you very much, and I apologize for being so far off to any TAscam related topic!
