Also, thanks to the list for the good tips on what is

as preamping. I have a sort of odd question though. I am aiming for a
delta 44 or 66 sometime in the future, so I'll need balanced TRS (1/4
plugs) for my mics. But right now, I'm micless (sold them to a friend)
and want to get some. Problem is, right now I have an original tascam
portastudio 424, which AFAIK doesn't take TRS plugs and definitely
doesn't have xlr inputs. TRS can go into 'TS' just fine, right?
yes, if your need is to take a signal from the portastudio and
get it into the computer, just use a TS 1/4" cable.
most of my stuff is unbalanced and do this all the time,
it works fine. IIRC the deltas are designed to work
balanced or unbalanced, as is a lot of modern "prosumer" gear.
