The SATSS-32x1530 splitter snake delivers professional multi-channel audio distribution for live sound engineers, production companies, and venues running complex PA setups. This 32-channel send snake features dual trunk lengths (15-foot and 30-foot) from a single stage box, giving you flexible positioning options for monitor engineers and front-of-house mixers.

Built around hardwired Y-splits, this snake takes 32 input channels at the stage box and splits each signal to two separate fantails without signal degradation. The heavy-duty steel stage box houses 32 female XLR inputs, while both fantails terminate in male XLR connectors for direct connection to mixing consoles or monitor boards.

Each of the 32 channels uses individually shielded pairs with 22-gauge copper conductors, aluminum foil shielding, and trace wire construction to reject noise and maintain signal integrity across long cable runs. Both the stage box and color-coded fantails feature clear channel labeling for quick setup during load-in. Heavy-duty strain reliefs protect connection points from road wear, while the stage box includes a carrying handle for transport.

This configuration works well for festivals, theaters, and large venues where you need to split signals between front-of-house and monitor positions up to 30 feet from the stage. The dual trunk design eliminates the need for separate splitter boxes when running signals to two mixing positions. Connect instruments and microphones to the stage box, then run the 15-foot trunk to your monitor engineer and the 30-foot trunk to your main mixing position.

Seismic Audio backs this splitter snake with a one-year warranty and ships it ready to use straight from the box.

Frequently Asked Questions

What's the difference between the 15-foot and 30-foot trunks?

Both trunks carry the same 32 channels from the stage box — this is a Y-split configuration where each input channel goes to both output fantails simultaneously. The 15-foot trunk typically goes to your monitor engineer position, while the 30-foot trunk reaches your front-of-house mixing console, giving you flexibility in mixer placement without needing separate splitter boxes.

Can I use this snake for recording applications?

This snake is designed for live sound splitting, not recording interfaces. It splits analog XLR signals from the stage box to two mixing positions but doesn't convert to digital formats or connect directly to recording equipment. You'd connect this to analog mixing consoles that have XLR inputs.

What size venues work best with this 32-channel snake?

This 32-channel configuration handles mid-size to large venues like theaters, festival stages, churches with full bands, and corporate events with extensive audio needs. The dual trunk design works particularly well when your monitor position is close to the stage (15-foot trunk) but your main mixing console is positioned further back in the venue (30-foot trunk).

Do the fantails come with any organization or are they just loose cables?

Both fantails feature color-coded groupings and clear channel labeling for quick identification during setup. The cables include mesh hangers at the fantail end to help with organization. Each channel is numbered and grouped by color to match the corresponding inputs on the steel stage box.

Is this snake compatible with powered mixers and unpowered mixing consoles?

This snake works with any mixing console or audio device that has standard XLR inputs, whether powered or unpowered. It's a passive splitter cable that doesn't require external power — it simply distributes the analog signals from your stage box inputs to both fantail outputs simultaneously.
