- 3.5mm to XLR ?
3.5mm to XLR ?
Looking for some advice please
I play in a jam band (old punks drinking club) with a rythm and lead guitarist using a drum machine and no vocals
The two guitarist have decided they want to have a bit of shouty action so we are going to need add an additional bit of kit
But at the same time we want toget rid of the amp that's running our drum machine so we have less to transport
An active wedge monitor looks to be the most cost effective route and most have a designated mic and line in with standard XLR connections
No problem for the mic but I am concerned about running the drum machine through the line XLR
The drum machine only has a 3.5mm stereo unbalanced output
Can i somehow connect this into a mono balanced XLR connection without any issues?
Sorry…no idea. 3.5 to XLR - is there even a cable/adapter?

http://www.kenable.co.uk/product_info.php?products_id=1270Have seen plenty of the above cable for sale but still cant get my head round how this would be capable of successfully carrying the signal without any interference or distortion
Stereo to mono and unbalanced to balanced….have you used the Support tab at kenable to ask this question? That's what I would do.
There's also a person I know of on TalkBass.com who could probably give you an informed, definitive answer. If you want, I'll tell you more. You would probably need to join TalkBass (it's free) and send the person a private message. In my experience, he's always been quick to respond, and very helpful. Cheers
Well, to be totally honest and brutally frank, I havent got a clue!

How about getting a drummer and a singer?

Too much hassle. Drummers drink too much, and singers are constantly whining and complaining.

we had one enquiry from a drummer looking to play with us but he wanted to be financially compensated for his time
he was politely told to f**k off
