This is a 31band EQ from Guitar-center, even though I could have ordered it from Musiciansfriend. This goes right to my amp. I am so far getting the best sound out of my pedal by using the XLR balanced outputs and using a Y connecter that attaches to the back of the pedal with Female connects and then a male connect as the single side and not the Y side. Then finally one more regular XLR cable that attaches to the male side of the Y connecter and then directly to the back of the Balanced input on my EQ.
