what do i need to do to use an XLR mic input with the AMZ 4-channel mixer layout?

This post was updated on .
I've searched and found some active DI box layouts to convert an unbalanced signal to a balanced XLR signal, but nothing for the other way around.

Do i just tap into pin 3 on the XLR input and run that into the 4-channel mixer?  the other three channels are instrument inputs from guitar and bass.

thanks

Basically, yeah. You can in fact just get a XLR to PL cable and call it a day.

PL cable?

Would a ground lift be required for the XLR connector?
