Aaargh. Trapped. Of course, this is true, most DI boxes come with XLR output
sockets because they are supposed to hook up with analog mixers. I can easily
build an adapter cable to drop the reverse phase signal, but to assume that
everyone else can was silly... sorry for that.

Actually most (all?) DI-boxes I know aren't the right thing here, because they
convert line-/instrument-signals to mic-level with symmetric (balanced) XLR Any recommendations for a cheap device that just
does the job nicely?
not really; any active DI-Box will do, e.g.Behringer has cheap
ones. connector. And if you own a card that has a XLR-input
the same cards most
probably has a instrument-in too.
Worth mentioning: the SBLive doesn't have a symmetric mic-input...
Hmm, my M Audio 1010LT comes with two XLR inputs but no instrument inputs. You can
jumper them for different input gain, but that doesn't help with impedance.
But any cheap (or not so cheap) guitar effects box
will do. You don't have to
use the effects (if you don't want to) but still use the impedance
conversion.
