Connect mixers, equalizers, and rack gear with this 8-pack of multi-color 10-foot balanced cables. Each cable features XLR female to 1/4" TRS connections, perfect for patching different types of pro audio equipment in your signal chain.

These balanced cables carry audio signals between your mixer and outboard processors like compressors, crossovers, or amplifiers. The balanced design maintains signal integrity over the 10-foot length, while the multi-color configuration helps with cable management in complex setups.

Built with 22-gauge oxygen-free copper conductors and heavy-duty rubber jackets, these patch cables handle regular studio and live sound use. Metal connectors on both ends ensure reliable connections, with high-grade fiberglass insulators on the TRS plugs. Each 8-pack includes cables in eight distinct colors: black, blue, green, orange, red, yellow, purple, and white.

Use these cables to connect your mixing board to rack-mounted processors in recording studios, live sound rigs, or installed church sound systems. The color coding makes it easy to trace signal paths when you're running multiple channels through different processors.

Each cable connects XLR female outputs to 1/4" TRS inputs, common on many mixers and rack units. The complete 8-pack arrives ready to integrate into your audio setup.

Seismic Audio backs these patch cables with a one-year warranty and fast shipping. Professional-grade connectivity for studios and live sound without the premium price.

Technical Specifications

Frequently Asked Questions

What equipment do these XLR female to TRS cables connect?

These cables connect mixers with XLR outputs to rack gear with 1/4" TRS inputs, such as equalizers, compressors, crossovers, and amplifiers. They're also used to patch between different pieces of studio equipment where one device has XLR outputs and another has TRS inputs. The balanced connection maintains audio quality over the 10-foot length.

Why does this pack include multiple colors?

The eight different colors help with cable management and signal tracing in complex audio setups. You can assign specific colors to different channels or signal paths, making it easier to troubleshoot and modify your routing. This is especially valuable in recording studios and live sound systems where multiple channels run through various processors.

Will these work with my mixer's balanced outputs?

Yes, these cables are designed specifically for balanced audio connections. If your mixer has XLR outputs and your destination equipment has 1/4" TRS inputs, these cables provide the proper balanced connection. Check that your equipment uses TRS (not TS) jacks for balanced signals before ordering.

How many channels can I connect with this 8-pack?

This 8-pack provides connections for up to 8 individual audio channels. For stereo applications, you'll need 2 cables per stereo channel, so this pack handles 4 stereo channels. This quantity works well for smaller mixing boards or connecting a few key channels through outboard processing gear.

What's the difference between these and instrument cables?

These are balanced patch cables designed for line-level signals between professional audio equipment, while instrument cables are unbalanced and designed for guitars and basses. These XLR-to-TRS cables maintain better signal quality over distance and are specifically made for connecting mixers to rack gear, not for instruments.
