S4 mk3 1/4" Balanced booth out to unbalanced RCA

Hoi

The booth out on the s4 mk3 is balanced. So to utilized that I would need a balanced 6.3 mm / 1/4" thing.

What happens if I just plug in a "mono" 1/4" to RCA plug?

Does it short something?⚠️

I just want to use it for recording / streaming. 🎤

Hello,

yes it shortens the ring and the sleeve contact, it can be a problem depending on the output stage design. But normally it works without problem. If you want to be sure use something like the neutrik NA2 F-D2B-TX. But i will ask and write again to be sure.

Yes this will work, modern output stages can handle it.
