Alright to put unbalanced cable into Behringer effects?

[tyebillion]

I have two Behringer effects units: a Tube Composer (compressor) and an UltraGraph Pro (eq). In the manual for these it says they accept a balanced input. I was wondering if it is OK to put an unbalanced cable on the input, for example from a guitar?
Thanks.

FX units such as those are intended to receive and send line-level signals.

You can try plugging your guitar straight in, but it may be noisy. No harm in trying.

Yes, it's fine to plug in unbalanced signals, but you'd probably need to boost it to line-level first.
