does it strike anyone else as weird that while most of the electrix effects
have balanced ins and outs, repeater itself is unbalanced? i asked about
this on the forum with no response, and i'm curious how folks here feel
about it. it's clearly possible to have unbalanced and balanced jacks on 
the
same circuit, since for example mo-fx has rca and trs ins and outs. is it
because they expect those of us using repeater with a (non dj style) mixer
rather than an amp to be the minority? i'm just confused, feeling just a
little cheated, and wondering why this change was made for the apparent
flagship product. any insight appreciated!
