Thanx Ike!

On more thing I found that has me quite perplexed:

On the back of my Valley people rack it says balance in, unbalanced out. I have no idea why they did it that way but the really weird part is that the terminals are marked +and- on one and ground on the other. You just confirmed that the - or common should be tied to the ground not the positive.

Are they wrong, was this some old way of doing it or is their rack wired funny or what?

What do I do?

Does anyone here have a Valley People TR806 rack and know what I am describing?

Thanx,
Jack

That should work. No need to re-wire the patch bay.

I seem to remember getting a lot of useful information from this list the last time I addressed my unbalanced/balanced patch bay issues so I was hoping someone here could answer a couple questions I have along those same lines:

My patch bay and snakes are balanced and typically to convert the 1/4 connectors on the ends of the snakes that feed the patch pay you just get new unbalanced connectors AND tie the common and ground/shield together.

I will be plugging these snakes in to my unbalanced Series One for it's direct outs, line ins etc and I wanted to make sure this was an acceptable approach, have any of you tried this before?

I do not need to rewire to an unbalanced patch bay do I?

Thanx,
Jack
