Thanks, Simon and Harry. I sent the message off, then a while later
thought, "Bet I'll just have to combine the stereo to a mono and put
that into a standard DI."
I'd love to use 2 XLRs, but we don't have enough channels on our snake
anymore (combination of some added singers and one non-working line in
the snake).

XLR leads are mono right? So if you're
putting in a stereo signal to the
DI, you're going to have two XLR outs: keeping the stereo.
If you're determined to get the signals to one XLR either combine the
stereo to mono, or just use one output of your synth. By using one XLR at
*any* point in the signal chain you're going to lose your stereo
image. Why
not use 2 XLR's?

there are only 3 contacts in the usual XLR, so it can be a mono balanced
connection or a stereo unbalanced ... you would need a 5 pin connector
for stereo balanced, certainly there are such beasts but they are much
less common.
