I have a new Studio 68c, and a guitar with active pickups.  When I read the manual, it appears to say I cannot plug that guitar into the instrument input or I risk damaging the 68c.  It tells me I have to plug it into the Line input, which is XLR right? (I'm new to this).  Can someone tell me, specifically, what I need to buy to be able to use a guitar with active pickups and the Studio 68c?

Thanks

Glenn

It is best to use a DI box that has an attenuator when using an super hot instrument signal on the AudioBox.
