Professional patch cables for studios, live venues, and mobile setups that need to connect XLR outputs to TRS inputs. The SATRXL-F3 6-pack delivers reliable balanced connections between mixing consoles, outboard gear, and amplifiers.

These 3-foot cables handle the critical signal path from your mixer's XLR main outputs to equalizers, crossovers, compressors, or power amplifiers with TRS inputs. The balanced design maintains signal integrity across your entire audio chain, preventing noise and interference that can compromise your mix.

Each cable features metal XLR female connectors on one end and metal 1/4" TRS connectors with high-grade fiberglass insulators on the other. The heavy-duty flexible rubber jacket stands up to repeated setup and teardown, while 22-gauge oxygen-free copper conductors ensure clean signal transfer. Shielded construction protects against electromagnetic interference in electrically noisy environments.

Perfect for connecting digital mixing consoles to rack-mounted processors, linking DJ mixers to powered speakers with TRS inputs, or adapting between different connection standards in your signal chain. The 3-foot length works well for desktop studio setups or rack-to-rack connections where longer runs aren't needed.

Red color coding helps identify signal paths in complex setups. Comes as a complete 6-pack, so you can wire multiple channels or have spares on hand. Each cable includes Seismic Audio's one-year warranty and ships fast from our warehouse.

Technical Specifications

Frequently Asked Questions

What equipment do these XLR female to TRS cables connect?

These cables connect mixing console XLR outputs to rack gear with TRS inputs like equalizers, compressors, crossovers, and some power amplifiers. They're also useful for connecting between different pieces of outboard processing gear when one has XLR outputs and the other has TRS inputs.

Are these cables balanced and do they maintain signal quality?

Yes, these are balanced cables that maintain professional signal integrity. The XLR female to TRS configuration preserves the balanced connection throughout the signal path, reducing noise and interference. The 22-gauge oxygen-free copper conductors and shielded construction ensure clean signal transfer.

What length works best for rack connections and studio setups?

The 3-foot length is ideal for desktop studio connections and rack-to-rack patching where equipment is positioned close together. For longer runs between stage and FOH positions, or connections across larger rooms, you'll want longer cable lengths like 10, 25, or 50-foot options.

Can I use these to connect my mixer directly to powered speakers?

Only if your powered speakers have TRS inputs, which is less common than XLR inputs on professional powered speakers. Most powered PA speakers and monitors use XLR inputs, so you'd typically want XLR male to XLR female cables for that connection instead.

Why buy a 6-pack instead of individual cables?

The 6-pack provides enough cables to connect a stereo mixer output plus four additional channels, or gives you spares for critical connections. Having matching cables also helps with organization and troubleshooting. The multi-pack pricing offers better value than buying cables individually.
