The SATRXL-M6 8-pack delivers essential balanced patch cables for studio engineers, live sound technicians, and mobile DJs who need reliable connections between mixers and outboard gear. These black XLR male to 1/4" TRS cables handle the balanced signals that keep your audio chain professional.

Each 6-foot cable connects mixers to equalizers, compressors, crossovers, or power amplifiers using balanced TRS connections. The metal XLR connector and 1/4" TRS plug with fiberglass insulators provide secure connections that won't work loose during performances or recording sessions.

Built with 22-gauge oxygen-free copper conductors and full shielding, these cables maintain signal integrity across your entire audio path. The heavy-duty rubber jacket flexes repeatedly without cracking, while the 6-foot length gives you positioning flexibility in crowded rack spaces or on stage. Metal connectors resist wear from frequent plugging and unplugging.

Perfect for connecting digital mixers to analog compressors, feeding signals from mixing boards to power amps, or adapting between XLR and TRS gear in mobile DJ setups. The 8-pack handles complete system builds for bands, churches running 4-8 channels of processing, or studios needing multiple outboard connections.

Each cable connects standard XLR outputs to balanced 1/4" TRS inputs. The complete 8-pack arrives ready to wire your entire signal chain.

Seismic Audio backs every cable with a one-year warranty and ships fast. Professional connections at a price that makes sense for working musicians and sound engineers.

Technical Specifications

Frequently Asked Questions

What equipment do these XLR to TRS cables connect?

These balanced patch cables connect mixing consoles with XLR outputs to outboard processing gear with 1/4" TRS inputs. Common connections include mixers to equalizers, compressors, crossovers, and power amplifiers. They're also used to connect audio interfaces to studio monitors or patch bays to rack-mounted processors.

Can I use these cables for microphones or instruments?

No, these are designed for line-level balanced connections between professional audio equipment. For microphones, you need XLR to XLR cables. For instruments, use standard 1/4" TS (unbalanced) cables. These XLR to TRS cables specifically handle the balanced line signals between mixers and processing equipment.

How many channels can the 8-pack handle in my setup?

The 8-pack provides connections for 8 channels of processing. For example, you could connect 4 stereo channels (left/right pairs) from your mixer to 4 stereo compressors, or run 8 mono channels to individual processors. This covers most small to medium church sound systems or mobile DJ setups with multiple zones.

Are these cables long enough for rack-mounted equipment?

At 6 feet each, these cables work well for connecting mixers to nearby rack cases or desktop setups. They provide enough length to route around other equipment while keeping cable runs manageable. For permanent installations requiring longer runs, consider our 10-foot or 25-foot versions of the same cable.

Do these maintain balanced signal throughout the connection?

Yes, these cables preserve the balanced signal path from XLR output to TRS input. The 3-conductor design (positive, negative, ground) maintains the noise rejection benefits of balanced audio throughout the connection. This is essential for professional audio applications where signal integrity matters over longer cable runs.
