Just got my Littlebox in mail ... right in time for Wanee. But mine did not come with RCA outs. Rather it's got the minijack (two of them). I'm in a bind ... what will I need to connect to a R-09?

I guess you hadn't ordered it with 1/8" (x2) outs?  Do you know if they are both mono outs?  Then all you need is a mono (x2) > stereo (x1) adapter cable to plug into your R-09.

good point
i assumed one was an out an one was plug in power or something else
if it is 2 outs you need a dual 1/8m > stereo 1/8m
which walmart will not sell but radio shack should

Thanks, Jon. The box looks awesome. There's no quality difference in RCA vs. mini, is there?

Radio Shack even has a one-footer available... it works great with my LS-10 and the 1/4"-20 stud that I had added to my Littlebox. I had managed to lose the longer cable that Olympus provided, but I found I like the shorter cable better.

I thought I was getting RCA outs.

I've been thinking about a LB, but wondered whether to get RCA or 1/8" out. Even with a recorder that has 1/8" in, RCA outs seem sturdier even if you have to buy a specific cable, and there is little chance of the cables rotating with either straight or RA connectors. Straight 1/8" plugs put stress on the deck, and RA needs to be taped in place to avoid static from rotation. Curious if any users have a different opinion from past experience.

Mine's just got RCA outs
see my rig pic thread:http://taperssection.com/index.php?topic=143728.0

you'll notice in my custom cable I used the Switchcraft Right Angle RCA's and they are solid and do NOT rotate, -- I only worry out the 1/8 TRS  mini plug on the M-10 end...
so far I totally love it!
