DI's, balanced and unbalanced signals

[Phil]

Is the idea of a DI just to make it easier going into a desk by xlr (bal.). so therefore anything which is jack (unbal.) give the same sound and cause no problems?

Thanks

Simply said yes, but it is a bit more than that.
A DI impedance matches and converts to a balenced signal which is less prone to interference (RF etc.)
