Unbalanced 1/4” wiring can be done with either a two- or three-conductor (TS or TRS) plug. A 
two-conductor (TS) plug automatically grounds the signal negative input, whereas a three-conductor 
(TRS) plug, wired unbalanced, provides the option of leaving the negative input open or grounded. We 
recommend that you ground the unused negative input (this can be done by wiring the ring and sleeve 
of the TRS plug together). 

The TRS input is summed through a balanced input amplifier with the XLR input, allowing both inputs 
to be used simultaneously. Input specifications apply to both.
