Mixer feed to SD722

Well-known member
I need to record a feed from a mixer to my SoundDevices 722 recorder for a small job. The mixer is 1/4" and I need to convert that to an XLR feed for the recorder. So am I good if I get a male 1/4" to XLR male adaptor? Male 1/4" goes into the mixer, XLR male connects to my regular cable to go to the recorder. Or am I missing something?

I know, super basic question, but I haven't done field audio in ages so just want to double check. Kind of funny, I got the recorder to do gigs just like this, yet in 2+ years I never used it for that.
 
Thats it.
If you're making your own..

If its unbalanced 1/4 out of the mixer..

Its
1/4 sleeve to pins 1 AND 3 on the xlr
1/4 tip to pins 2 on the xlr.
