The SA-Y99 XLR Y-splitter cable solves a common live sound challenge: connecting two microphones to a single mixer channel when you're short on inputs. This 6-inch splitter features one XLR female input and two XLR female outputs, making it essential gear for small venues, rehearsal spaces, and mobile setups where mixer channels are at a premium.

This Y-splitter enables you to run dual vocal mics, backup singers, or interview microphones through one channel on your mixing console. The compact 6-inch length keeps connections tight and organized in your rack or on your mixer, while still providing enough flexibility for practical positioning.

Built with nickel-plated connectors and shielded OFC dual-core cable construction, the SA-Y99 maintains signal integrity across both outputs. The flexible PVC jacket withstands regular setup and breakdown cycles, while the shielded design prevents interference in electrically noisy environments like rehearsal studios or small clubs.

Perfect for podcast recordings, small band rehearsals, church services with backup vocalists, or DJ setups where you need to split a mic signal for recording and live output. The splitter works with any dynamic or condenser microphone that uses standard XLR connections.

Simply connect your mixer's XLR output to the single female connector, then plug your two microphones into the dual outputs. The cable weighs just 0.24 lbs and comes ready to use out of the box.

Seismic Audio backs the SA-Y99 with reliable construction and fast shipping, delivering professional connectivity solutions that work when you need them.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use this to connect two microphones to one mixer channel?

Yes, the SA-Y99 is specifically designed for this application. Connect the single XLR female end to your mixer's channel output, then plug two microphones into the dual XLR female outputs. This is perfect when you need backup vocals or dual interview mics but only have one available channel on your mixing console.

Will this work with both dynamic and condenser microphones?

The SA-Y99 works with any microphone that uses standard XLR connections, including both dynamic and condenser mics. However, keep in mind that when splitting a signal, both microphones will share the same channel settings on your mixer, including gain, EQ, and phantom power if applicable.

How does this compare to using a dedicated mic splitter box?

This Y-splitter cable is ideal for simple applications where you need to split one signal to two outputs with minimal setup. For more complex splitting needs, multiple splits, or applications requiring signal isolation and individual level control, a dedicated splitter box would be more appropriate.

What venues or applications work best with this 6-inch length?

The 6-inch length is perfect for tight spaces like small mixing consoles, rack-mounted equipment, or desktop podcast setups. It works well in rehearsal rooms, small churches, home studios, or mobile DJ rigs where you need to keep connections compact and organized without excess cable length.

Can I daisy-chain multiple Y-splitters for more outputs?

While technically possible, daisy-chaining Y-splitters will progressively reduce signal level and potentially introduce noise. For applications requiring more than two outputs from one source, we recommend using a dedicated distribution amplifier or splitter box designed for multiple outputs.
