A simple take home from this is that if the cables were short and well made/screened, the environment was ācleanā then irrespective of what type of cable (TS/TRS) you used connecting any Elektron to anything else (whether it was āproperlyā balanced or not) it would make no difference in output levels or meaningful noise levels.
With lots of connections where devices are balanced ācompatibleā (including the Elektrons) then it would be a potential recipe for noise that even an impedance balanced (i.e noise rejection is facilitated on the ring which does not carry any sent signal at all from an Elektron) would start to help with, but as i said in the first reply, itās nothing to do with signal level which was the thrust of your question.
Thereās no harm (except to pocket) of using TRS cables where you can, but donāt tell yourself it will help a signal level issue, it might alleviate potential noise issues (at best)
There are a few more topics on this where more detail will be discussed. Itās important to take note that Elektron devices donāt have āfullyā balanced outputs, they have respectably hot outputs, but it is unbalanced and balanced compatible. So you donāt lose level as such, as a fully balanced signal may typically be in the same ballpark voltage-wise.
TS or TRS from Elektron into and out of your patchbay will be no different, it will still only have the healthy āhotā sound signal on the tip, and inverted noise on the ring
