you can use yellow plug for audio input. For XLR connections you have to use
adapters, try to google for phmxmh, but that may not work for all microphones.
Or you will need a converter from balanced to unbalanced, but it can be bulky
and may need an external
power.<BR><BR>--<BR>Sergey<BR></BLOCKQUOTE></BODY></HTML>
