The SAXT-4x5F delivers professional-grade signal routing for studios, venues, and mobile rigs that need clean, efficient connections between mixing boards and stage gear. This 4-channel snake cable bridges the gap between 1/4" TRS outputs on mixers, audio interfaces, and effects processors to XLR female inputs on microphones, DI boxes, and other balanced gear.

Built with 22-gauge oxygen-free copper conductors, this snake maintains signal integrity across all four channels while rejecting RF interference that can plague cheaper cables. The balanced, shielded design ensures your audio stays clean whether you're running long cable runs in a recording studio or dealing with stage lighting and power interference at live venues.

At 5 feet tip-to-tip, the SAXT-4x5F works well for rack-to-rack connections, desktop studio setups, and close-proximity live sound applications. Each channel is color-coded and numerically labeled for quick identification during setup, while serviceable ends mean you can repair connections instead of replacing the entire snake.

Perfect for recording studios connecting audio interfaces to outboard gear, small venues running monitor mixes, or mobile DJs linking mixers to powered speakers with XLR inputs. The compact 5-foot length eliminates excess cable clutter in tight spaces while providing enough reach for most desktop and rack configurations.

Connects any device with 1/4" TRS outputs to gear with XLR female inputs. The cable includes all four channels in one convenient run.

Seismic Audio backs this snake cable with a one-year warranty and ships ready to use right out of the package.

Technical Specifications

Frequently Asked Questions

What gear does this snake cable connect?

This snake connects any device with 1/4" TRS outputs (mixing boards, audio interfaces, effects processors) to equipment with XLR female inputs (microphones, DI boxes, some powered speakers). It's particularly useful for studios connecting interfaces to outboard gear or venues running balanced signals from mixers to stage equipment.

Is 5 feet long enough for live sound applications?

The 5-foot length works well for rack-to-rack connections, desktop studio setups, and stage applications where your mixer is close to the stage box or equipment. For longer runs between front-of-house and stage, you'll want a longer snake like our 25-foot or 50-foot models.

Can I use this for monitor sends from my mixer?

Yes, this snake works well for monitor applications if your mixer has 1/4" TRS auxiliary outputs and your monitor speakers or stage monitors accept XLR inputs. The balanced design helps reject noise over the cable run, which is important for monitor feeds that performers depend on.

What's the difference between this and an XLR-to-XLR snake?

This snake converts between connector types (TRS to XLR) while maintaining balanced signal flow. XLR-to-XLR snakes keep the same connector type on both ends. Choose this cable when you need to connect gear with different connector types but want to maintain professional balanced audio quality.

Are the ends user-repairable if they get damaged?

Yes, this snake features serviceable ends, meaning you can open the connector housings to repair or replace internal connections if they become damaged. This extends the cable's lifespan and saves money compared to non-serviceable cables that require complete replacement when connectors fail.
