    Good Balanced Cables?

    This is for outboard gear - pultec eq's and some compressors. I only need about 30-40 ft. at this time, but want something high quality and easy to work with. 2944 looks to be too thin from what I can see - these will terminate in Neutrik connectors, and I'm not sure that wire will be a good...

    Good Balanced Cables?

    Seems the star quad is what most dealers sell these days. What would be a good, 2-conductor cable to use for a balanced line? I see that Mogami 2549 is highly-rated, but is more $ than most. (I want to be buying by the foot; and not a large amount.)

    Is This SS?

    One song. I'm asking because the tape was baked for 24 hours, then rested for same. It seems baking it not all it's cracked up to be. Bought a dehydrator on advice - now see it as a waste of $.

    Transferring Multitrack Reels Into Computer?

    Well, the first part of the project is done (90+ tapes) and not too soon, as the 3440 gave up the ghost these last few days. Second phase is obtaining an 80-8, or equivalent, and diving into the 8-track archive. (Not looking forward to it, as no amount of baking seems to cure my Ampex tapes of...

    Which Mike?

    Thanks - I thought it was a Coles. It looks to be a 4038 - in use at Abbey Road Studios quite a bit, it seems.

    Good Balanced Cables?

    OK - hopefully all will go well, as I've just got some boutique EQ's and don't want to blow them up.

    Good Balanced Cables?

    Thanks - it was helpful. Though all of the clips I've seen have the same colors joined together.

    Jack Manufacturer?

    Not sure what they're talking about with the thinner shell - hope it's not harder to arrange the wires to solder.

    Good Balanced Cables?

    So join the 2 blues and 2 whites together to make 3 strands with the ground?

    Good Balanced Cables?

    Looking through some old cables, I found some Canare L-4E6S. This is 5 conductor; would this be good for making a balanced XLR - TRS cable? https://www.markertek.com/product/l-4e6s-bk/canare-l-4e6s-star-quad-microphone-cable-by-the-foot-black

    Good Balanced Cables?

    I was thinking af maybe making them myself, as the lengths are to be quite small, though I'd have to buy some tools, etc. to do so.

    That just may be the company I was talking about all those years ago - thanks.

    Good Balanced Cables?

    I need to buy some balanced XLR - 1/4" cables. Years ago, I used to have them made by a company in Ca. that I think were in the movie trade, but no doubt they have vanished by now. They used either Mogami or Canare cable, but I'm not out to spend all that much these days. What would be a good...
