Once on the subject, could somebody please clarrify:

I have quite a bit of equipment and everything is wired with balanced cables.

Now, would it make sense to use balanced cables as outputs from my Yamaha Tyros? Why is it that we always use regular line TS cables for instruments?

And why do keyboards come with two (L & R) outputs? Why not just one TRS (Left, Right and Shield)? It seems to work for the headphone output!

Also, are the 1/4 inch inputs and outputs on a standard mixer or interface TRS capable? Or just TS?

I'm just trying to make the most secure connections possible, and it seems balanced is the best way to do this. I'm just not sure if balanced will work with all machines.

Please clarrify!! Thank you
Chony
