SM-57 to unbalanced input?
I'm using a Roland KC-300 amp (basically using it as a PA) with an SM-57 mic, with a cable that's XLR female on the mic-end, 1/4" on the other. The KC-300 has a channel that is a dedicated balanced mic input, in addition to other line-level, non-balanced channel inputs. I understand the benefits of using the balanced setup. I want to use the amp for two mics. Does anyone think that plugging the mic into the unbalanced, line-level inputs would be unusable? Would there be too much noise, etc. to use in a live situation?
