yeah, I hear you.....I was just wishing out loud...lol...thanks Spencer....as for a TRS balanced output I don't know, waiting for other more technical TBers to talk about the good/bad aspects of it....
I can't make it any smaller and still have an XLR jack. I could stick a nice EQ in a Proton-sized box but if you wanted a balanced output it would have to be a 1/4" TRS output.
Would you guys find a TRS balanced output useful at all?
