I have a DI box which has an XLR balanced output.

be OK?
Are you wanting to convert to an unbalanced signal in hardware (a cheap
balan/transformer/DI) or in software (DSP code to combine L and R to produce
a mono stream) ??
I guess in hardware?
Thinking more about it, do I need to plug the DI out into a preamp
before it goes into the line in for the soundcard? (the instrument is
a bass guitar unamplified).
