Signal Levels and Snakes

[Phyl]

I need to build some cables to connect the inputs/outputs of my DAW (MOTU 192) to the line inputs/outputs of my mixer channels. I need to run 10 lines.

Since the MOTU I/O lines are rated at 4dBu, I'm wondering if using snake cable is appropriate. Will bleed between channels be an issue? Would individual cables be a better idea?

You will be fine, no bleed. People even mix signal levels in snakes a lot, sending mic and line signals at the same time.

Like Easychair said, you will be fine. Don't worry about it.
