Hi

I know some cable brands like hosa and horizon for passive studio monitors and I also found some expensive cables from
(analysis-plus,fadelart,Z-cable,TMC) brands.

Okay, I have been given the go ahead by my wife to get a cheap mic for podcasting and some simple voice recording. I have a layla 3g sound card, and I am looking at getting a Shure SM58 (not amazing, but just in the price range, $100).

I don't know what cable I would need to use the mic on the layla, any ideas?

Hi, always wondered about the following:

1. How often would you pros out there recommend replacing a mic/instr/interconnect cable. I have some quality cables I soldered up some five years ago now (looks fine, gold plugs etc), are they still good for critical recording?

I want to upgrade the cables linking my hardware in my studio. Mainly, I need MtoF XLR cables connecting my preamps to my Firepod. I want to keep my sound clean and pure. What cables do you suggest? Any links?

Hi guys,
A simple question here.

What will happen if I use 110ohm cable for SPDIF instead of the normal 75ohm.

I am asking that because I have asked for 75ohm S/PDIF cable and they sent to me 110 ohm.

hi all.

i have got a set of MSP5's - each has 2 line sockets on the back, 1 XLR (female) and 1 standard Jack (guitar cable size)

Now, my audio interface only has Jack outputs for the monitors...

-i went and bought the wrong cables..I got Jack to (female) XLR! (idiot I know)

What cables should i get for best performance w/ AT 4033 and e-Mu 1820?
ya I'm new here and looking for the good advice...so just let me know what cables i should get...

-thnx

So I'm installing a patchbay in my setup and have decided to get rid of all of my single cables. They're all Mogami either XLR/XLR or TRS/TRS gold cables. Could I sell them back to Guitar Center(doubtful) or should I just try to sell them in bulk on ebay? How much less should I sell them for? 50%?

I want to replace the 6' 25pin connector of my lx6 with a 25' one and I'm not exactly sure what I'm looking for...
Would a stock 25pin shielded (28 AWG) m/f serial cable work?

edit: The connector standard is DB25M/DB25F btw...

The one thing I am always amazed by is when I see pictures of studios is the lack of cables and cords. I wonder if it is all cleaned up and or moved into strategic positioning in order for the camera to avoid the mess just to look good.
