Professional engineers and sound techs need reliable signal routing between the stage and mix position, and the SARLX-24x15 delivers 24 channels of balanced XLR connectivity in a single 15-foot run. This multi-channel snake eliminates the cable chaos of individual mic lines while maintaining signal integrity across every channel.

Each channel features XLR male to XLR female connectors with 22 AWG copper wire construction and foil shielding with drain wire. The balanced design minimizes hum and interference, while field-serviceable connectors allow for repairs without replacing the entire snake. Both numeric and color-coded labeling on all 24 channels speeds up setup and breakdown, reducing load-in time for touring acts and installed systems.

This snake handles applications from small venue live sound to medium-scale corporate events, typically serving stages that need 12-24 microphone or line inputs routed to a mixing console positioned up to 15 feet away. Churches running multiple wireless mic receivers, bands with drum kits requiring multiple mics, and mobile DJs managing complex setups all benefit from consolidated cabling.

The snake connects directly between XLR outputs on stage (microphones, DI boxes, wireless receivers) and XLR inputs on your mixing console or audio interface. Each channel maintains independent signal paths, so you can mix different source types on the same snake.

Seismic Audio backs the SARLX-24x15 with a one-year warranty and direct shipping. Built for both permanent installations and mobile applications, this snake withstands the demands of professional live sound environments.

Technical Specifications

Frequently Asked Questions

How many instruments or mics can this snake handle?

The SARLX-24x15 provides 24 independent channels, so you can connect up to 24 microphones, instruments with DI boxes, or line-level sources simultaneously. Each channel is completely isolated from the others, allowing you to run different signal types through the same snake without interference.

What size venues work best with a 15-foot snake cable?

This length works well for small to medium venues where your mixing console is positioned 10-15 feet from the stage, such as small clubs, church sanctuaries, conference rooms, or outdoor pavilions accommodating 100-300 people. For larger venues requiring longer runs, consider Seismic Audio's 25-foot or 50-foot snake options.

Do I need any adapters to connect this to my mixing board?

No adapters needed if your mixing console has XLR inputs, which is standard on professional mixing boards. The snake terminates in 24 individual XLR male connectors that plug directly into your board's XLR input jacks. Each channel maintains balanced connectivity from stage to mixer.

Can I use this snake for both live sound and recording?

Yes, the SARLX-24x15 works equally well for live sound reinforcement and multi-track recording setups. Connect it between your stage sources and either a live mixing console or an audio interface with multiple XLR inputs for recording applications.

What's the difference between this and running individual XLR cables?

A snake cable bundles all 24 channels into one organized run, eliminating cable clutter and reducing setup time significantly. You also get consistent shielding and wire gauge across all channels, plus the color-coding and numbering system makes it much easier to troubleshoot connections during soundcheck.
