In most cases this will work fine unless the mixer has isolated  
grounds (very rare). The only thing needed really is only on ground  
line between both units. A medium gauge wire from module mounting  
screws would do it in most cases.

I've erased my emails so don't know who posted it but someone  
mentioned the method of drilling out and enlarging the holes in the  
current plastic jacks and still using them - brilliant idea! if  
carefully done the tip part of the jack could still be used and make  
contact with the banana  and even the normalizing preserved. It would  
be time consuming for sure and disassembly and re-assembly of the  
jacks contacts needed but it would look great and still support the pcb.
