Hi
2 questions. I want to add a di to a pre, basically the tip goes to the grid and from there a 1M resistor to ground. It's a switch plug, so i sent the high secondary of the input tranny to it.
1. I use shielded wire to connect the plug. Does the sleeve connect to the shield, and go to chassis, just like pin 1 of xlr? Or i should send the sleeve to signal ground?
2. I use a trs plug because that was the only one i got at hand. Should i strap the ring to the sleeve (so to ground)? I got some hum when connecting a guitar inti it (note that i use a trs cable instead of a ts cable).
Thanks
