The black wire is physical ground. In a 3 pin XLR goes to pin 1 but in a 4 pin single connector you don't have the ground pin since you are using 2 pins for the positive (one per channel) and 2 for the nevative (one per channel) so most likely you will connect the ground to the sleeve to make the ground.
