Hey guys, long time no post.
I'm currently overseas and working with the chapel doing music/sound/etc. They purchased a snake somewhere locally and this snake does not have any 1/4" ins/outs. Someone said they thought this was possible, so I'll try to explain it the best I can. Can you tell me if this is ok or dangerous?
In order to get sound the the speakers (which only have 1/4" inputs) they want to take the stereo out from the board, put it through a passive DI, use the XLR out from the DI into the snake. Is that do-able? I then have to find a way to get the output (from the snake) back into a 1/4". Any thoughts?
this is the board we're using

Thanks for all the help. (Also, I'm trying to get the chapel guys to just get some converter cables so this will be a temporary fix)
