    XLR + Headphone Combo Cable Question?

    Well that was a pain in the dick. I ended up going with 5 pin xlr cables. I made a little breakout box on my desk mic stands with a volume control box and headphone plug attached, and tore apart my little Xenyx mixing board to replace 2 of the standard 3 pin xlr's with 5 pin ones. I also...

    USB audio dongle mic input stereo or mono?

    I would like to plug my Xenyx 1202 into my macbook air. Unfortunately I got the one with no USB though, it's a pure analog mixer. Can I use one of those USB audio dongles? Do those things usually have a mono mic input or is it stereo? Cause I'm gunna have 2 channels coming out of the xenyx right?

    What thread size are XLR cable connector boots?

    I tried googling but couldn't find the answer. I'd just like to know what the thread size is for the back of an XLR connector. The threaded part that the boot screws onto. I understand that some companies may be different, but looking at the baker's dozen of XLR cables I have laying around...

    XLR + Headphone Combo Cable Question?

    Huh? What wizardy is that? It never occurred to me that I could use CAT5 as audio cable, that's a better idea than mine. In my googling I came across quad XLR cable. I was going to take off the ends and separate a pair for mic and a pair for headphones, but I was indeed wondering what I was...

    Really good USB headphone/mic combo?

    Does anyone know of a high quality USB headphone/mic combo? I’ve got an Audio Technica BPHS1 and its microphone is almost as good as my condenser mics, it sounds great. But, I’m looking into a smaller solution for a highly mobile podcast rig and I’m thinking about the possibility of plugging...

    Tascam US 16x08 Mix-Minus?

    Im looking at the Tascam US 16x08 as an I/O but just can't definitively figure out if it'll do a mix-minus thru its included 'DSP mixer'. There's a screenshot on the Tascam website of the mixer, but it just kinda shows 1 channel going to 1 output on the back. There's also a youtube video of some...

    Podcast Rig

    I've been recording podcasts for a few months now thru mixing boards into garage band and streaming the audio thru mixlr.com in real time as sort of an online radio station. After the live show I clean up the audio a little bit and upload it to my website as the next podcast episode. I started...
