The SAXLX-3 Orange is a 3-foot XLR patch cable designed for musicians, DJs, content creators, churches, recording studios, and broadcasters who need reliable balanced audio connections in tight spaces. This cable handles the critical connections between mixers, equalizers, crossovers, and amplifiers in your signal chain.

Built with 22-gauge oxygen-free copper conductors, this cable delivers clean signal transmission for professional audio applications. The balanced XLR design ensures noise-free audio transfer, while the heavy-duty flexible rubber jacket stands up to repeated use in demanding environments.

The cable features metal 3-pin XLR connectors with male on one end and female on the other, providing secure connections that won't come loose during performances or recording sessions. Shielded construction protects your audio signal from interference in electrically noisy environments like studios with multiple electronic devices.

Perfect for patching rack equipment in studios, connecting stage monitors to mixing consoles, or short runs between stage equipment where longer cables would create unnecessary clutter. The 3-foot length works well for equipment racks, desktop studio setups, or short runs between stage equipment.

Connect the female XLR to your source output and the male XLR to your destination input. The cable comes ready to use with professional-grade connectors that lock securely in place.

Seismic Audio backs this cable with a one-year warranty, ensuring reliable performance for your audio applications.

Technical Specifications

Frequently Asked Questions

What equipment can I connect with this XLR patch cable?

This cable works with any professional audio gear that uses balanced XLR connections, including mixing consoles, equalizers, crossovers, amplifiers, and audio interfaces. It's also compatible with microphones that use 3-pin XLR connectors.

Is 3 feet long enough for typical studio rack connections?

Yes, 3 feet is ideal for connecting equipment within the same rack or between adjacent racks in most studio setups. This length minimizes cable clutter while providing enough reach for standard rack configurations and desktop studio arrangements.

Can I use this cable for microphones?

Absolutely. This XLR cable works perfectly for connecting dynamic or condenser microphones to mixing consoles, audio interfaces, or preamps. The balanced design and shielded construction ensure clean microphone signal transmission.

How does the shielded design benefit my audio setup?

The shielded construction protects your audio signals from electromagnetic interference common in environments with stage lighting, wireless devices, or multiple electronic components. This results in cleaner audio with less noise and hum in your signal chain.

What's the difference between this and an unbalanced cable?

Balanced XLR cables like this one use three conductors (positive, negative, and ground) to cancel out interference and noise during signal transmission. Unbalanced cables are more susceptible to noise, especially over longer distances or in electrically noisy environments.

Can I use this cable for DMX lighting applications?

While this cable has the same 3-pin XLR connectors as DMX cables, it's not recommended for DMX use. DMX requires 120-ohm impedance cables, while this audio cable uses 75-ohm impedance. Using audio cables for DMX can cause signal reflections, data errors, and unreliable lighting control. For proper DMX applications, use dedicated DMX cables designed with the correct impedance rating.
