Is it okay to connect from DAC 3.5mm out to directly to mixing console?

Hi all!

I recently purchased the TANCHJIM SPACE, and I'm really happy with its sound quality—thanks to the reviews here!

I have a question: is it safe to connect the DAC directly to a mixing console? Aside from potential issues like sound distortion or unintended noises, could there be any risk in connecting a portable device like this directly to a console?

I’m particularly concerned about impedance matching. Could this possibly damage my TANCHJIM SPACE or the mixing console?

If you use a line input it will work fine. I do this regularly. Use a cable 3.5 mm TRS to 2 x 6.35 mm TS.

There is no impedance matching in line level audio. Perfectly fine to connect 3.5mm out to unbalanced inputs.
Nothing can/will be damaged in any way.
