SATRXL-M6 - 6 Pack of Black 6 Foot XLR Male to TRS Patch Cables
The SATRXL-M6 6-pack provides essential balanced connections for live sound engineers, studio professionals, and venue technicians who need reliable XLR male to TRS patch cables. These 6-foot cables bridge the gap between professional mixing consoles and outboard gear like equalizers, compressors, crossovers, and power amplifiers.
Each cable delivers balanced signal transmission from XLR outputs to TRS inputs, maintaining signal integrity across your audio chain. The metal XLR male connector locks securely into mixer outputs, while the metal TRS connector with fiberglass insulators ensures solid connections to rack-mounted processors and amplifiers.
Built with 22-gauge oxygen-free copper conductors and complete shielding, these cables resist interference in electrically noisy environments. The heavy-duty rubber jacket withstands repeated setup and teardown cycles without compromising performance. At 6 feet each, they provide sufficient length for standard rack-to-mixer configurations without excess cable clutter.
These cables excel in live sound applications where mixers feed signal processors, recording studios connecting outboard gear, and installed sound systems routing audio between rack components. They handle everything from small club PA setups to larger venue installations requiring multiple signal paths.
The 6-pack configuration covers most standard rack setups where you need to connect stereo pairs plus additional channels. All cables arrive ready to use with no additional adapters required.
Seismic Audio backs each cable with a one-year warranty and ships nationwide. Professional-grade construction meets demanding live sound requirements without the premium price.

Frequently Asked Questions
What equipment do these XLR to TRS cables connect?
These cables connect mixing console XLR outputs to rack-mounted equipment with TRS inputs, including equalizers, compressors, crossovers, and power amplifiers. They're essential for routing balanced signals from your mixer to outboard processing gear. The XLR male end plugs into mixer aux sends, group outputs, or main outputs, while the TRS end connects to the balanced inputs on your rack gear.
How many cables do I need for a typical live sound setup?
Most live sound applications require 2-6 cables depending on your signal routing needs. A basic stereo setup needs two cables for left and right channels, while more complex systems may use additional cables for aux sends to monitors, effects processors, or zone feeds. This 6-pack covers most standard configurations including stereo main outputs plus aux sends or monitor feeds.
Can these cables handle high-output mixing consoles without signal loss?
Yes, these balanced cables maintain signal integrity from professional mixing consoles to rack equipment. The oxygen-free copper conductors and complete shielding preserve audio quality over the 6-foot length. The balanced design provides superior noise rejection compared to unbalanced connections, making them suitable for high-output digital and analog consoles.
What's the difference between TRS and TS connections for this application?
TRS (tip-ring-sleeve) connections carry balanced signals with superior noise rejection, while TS (tip-sleeve) connections are unbalanced. These TRS cables maintain the balanced signal path from your mixer's XLR output through to your rack equipment's balanced input. Using TRS instead of TS connections reduces noise pickup and provides better signal quality, especially in electrically noisy environments.
Will 6-foot length work for standard rack-to-mixer distances?
Six feet provides adequate length for most rack-to-mixer configurations without excess cable clutter. This length works well when your mixer sits on top of or adjacent to your equipment rack. For longer runs or when the mixer is positioned further from the rack, you may need longer cables, but 6 feet handles the majority of portable PA and installed sound applications.
