signal to noise with direct guitar

I was recording a dry guitar thru an Avalon 737 last night. The dry sound on tape is real clean. I then went out an aux, balenced, thru a radial JDI, out of the JDI, unbalenced, into a pod. When the pod comes back into the mixer it has more hiss and less balls then plugging straight into the pod.



Am I doing something wrong? Shouldnt it sound the same as plugging straight into the pod?



I am doing this cause I dont want to commit to a guitar sound at tracking. Seems like this offers tons of flexibility when mixing and makes setting up the tracking session real fast.



Any thoughts?
