no need for the ad20 as it has a gain stage. 

edit: cable >>> depends on the outs on the board you'll need either dual rca>stereo mini or dual 1/4'>stereo mini

Ok Sorry I'm new to the SBD patches thing..I have a question..

I have a Sharp MD-MT99 and was going to a few shows this summer, and some of the bands might allow Soundboard patches, if so, what cables do I need to plug into the SBD?

I have Line Out, Line In, Mic In, etc on my MD.


Thanks for your help..

Joe.
