Ringleader said:The only way I've been able to get rid of the hum when running to my amp fx return is to use the 3-2 prong converter. Lifting the ground on the balanced outs doesn't fix the hum problem. I use the Axe in 3 scenarios - in the fx return of my amp (not 4CM) - to the QSC - and direct to FOH with IEM's. I'm under the impression that it is safe to lift the ground as long as one unit in the chain is grounded (amp, QSC). My main concern is running straight to FOH without the ground. The whole rack is plugged into a Furman power regulator but I just don't know enough about grounding to determine whether or not this is sufficient. Does anybody know if this is safe - for my own well-being and/or my Axe-Fx?
