SASRT-12x10 - 12 Channel 1/4" TRS Snake Cable - 10 Feet
The SASRT-12x10 12-channel TRS snake cable handles the complex routing demands of multi-input live sound setups, recording sessions, and fixed installations. Built for musicians, engineers, and venues that need reliable signal paths between stage and mixer.
This 10-foot snake delivers 12 individual TRS connections on each end, enabling you to run multiple balanced signals through a single cable run. The TRS format makes it particularly well-suited for connecting effects processors, outboard gear, and patch bays to mixing consoles.
Each channel uses 22-gauge high-purity copper conductors for clean signal transmission, with gold-tipped connectors that resist corrosion and maintain solid connections over time. Color coding and numerical labeling on each connector eliminates guesswork during setup and troubleshooting. The serviceable ends mean you can repair or replace individual connectors rather than scrapping the entire snake.
Perfect for studio patch bay connections, effects loop routing in live sound systems, and linking outboard processors to digital mixers. The 10-foot length works well for rack-to-console connections, small stage setups, and studio control room patching where longer snakes would create cable clutter.
Simply connect the numbered TRS plugs to your corresponding inputs and outputs – each channel carries a balanced signal path. The snake includes all 12 TRS connections ready to use.
Seismic Audio backs this snake with a one-year warranty and ships it ready for immediate deployment in your signal chain.

Frequently Asked Questions
What's the difference between TRS snake cables and standard audio snakes?
TRS (Tip-Ring-Sleeve) connectors carry balanced signals and work with effects processors, patch bays, and mixing console insert points. Standard audio snakes typically use XLR or TS connections for microphones and instruments. This TRS snake is specifically designed for routing balanced line-level signals between audio equipment.
Can I use this snake to connect my band's instruments directly?
This snake is designed for line-level balanced connections, not instrument-level signals. Use it to connect effects units to your mixer, patch outboard gear, or link mixing console inserts. For connecting guitars, basses, and microphones, you'll want instrument cables and XLR snakes instead.
How do the serviceable ends work if a connector fails?
The connectors can be unscrewed and replaced individually without replacing the entire snake cable. This saves money and reduces downtime – you can swap out a damaged TRS plug and get back to work instead of buying a whole new snake. Standard 1/4" TRS connectors are widely available for field repairs.
Will 10 feet work for most studio and small venue setups?
Yes, 10 feet handles most rack-to-console connections, studio patch bay routing, and small stage setups where the mixing position is close to the equipment. For larger stages or control rooms where the mixer is farther from the stage box or rack, you'll need longer snake cables.
What equipment typically uses TRS connections for multiple channels?
Multi-effects processors, audio interfaces, patch bays, mixing console insert points, and outboard compressors or EQs commonly use TRS connections. This snake lets you connect 12 channels between any combination of these devices, making it valuable for both live sound and studio applications.
