Excellent ideas for pre-troubleshooting typical venue issues.I use a fancy Radial DI that I keep on top of my FRFR behind me. Don’t need to use it but I do. It eliminates 2 issues I sometimes run into with sound guys. 1. The sound guys don’t have to run XLR’s out to the front of stage to the AX8. They can plug right into the DI on the backline where they are use to for guitars. (I have heard them complain about having to run them out front. Lazy.) 2. The Radial converts line level signal to mic level so the soundguys don’t freak out. (Although most guys know what to expect nowadays.)
This is the one I have. One of the senior forum members recommended it to me a couple of years ago.

Lmao! That is hilarious.Excellent ideas for pre-troubleshooting typical venue issues.
Many times the problems we face are the sound engineer needing to do things only his way - usually stemming from a lack of experience and knowledge.
I was told once “no, a guitar sound MUST USE a 1/4” cable to the mixer or it will blow up.” Seriously.
