The SATRXL-M6 6-pack delivers the balanced XLR male to TRS cables you need to connect mixers to outboard gear like EQs, compressors, crossovers, and amplifiers. This multi-color pack handles the adapter cables that keep your rack system organized and your signal path clean.

Each 6-foot balanced cable bridges the gap between XLR and TRS connections, letting you route signals from mixing consoles to rack-mounted processors and power amps. The balanced design maintains proper signal levels and reduces noise in your audio chain.

Built with 22-gauge oxygen-free copper conductors and shielded construction, these cables deliver reliable signal transfer for professional applications. Metal XLR male connectors lock securely into mixer outputs, while the TRS ends plug into compressor, EQ, and amplifier inputs. The heavy-duty rubber jacket stands up to repeated use, and the color coding—blue, green, orange, red, yellow, and purple—makes cable tracing quick during setup and troubleshooting.

Perfect for live sound engineers connecting digital mixers to analog outboard gear, church sound systems running separate EQ for different zones, and recording studios patching console sends to rack effects. These work equally well for DJ booth setups where you need to run balanced signals from your mixer to active speakers or processing gear.

Each pack includes six cables total—one of each color, all measuring 6 feet in length. Seismic Audio backs every cable with a one-year warranty and ships orders fast so you can get back to making music.

Frequently Asked Questions

What's the difference between TRS and TS cables for connecting mixers to amplifiers?

TRS cables carry balanced signals with hot, cold, and ground connections, which reduces noise and interference over longer cable runs. TS cables only carry unbalanced signals and are more susceptible to picking up electrical noise. For professional mixer-to-amp connections, always use balanced TRS or XLR cables like these to maintain clean signal transfer.

Can I use these cables to connect my mixer directly to powered speakers?

These XLR male to TRS cables are designed for connecting mixers to rack-mounted gear like EQs, compressors, and power amplifiers. If your powered speakers have TRS inputs, these will work, but most active speakers use XLR female inputs and would need standard XLR male to XLR female cables instead.

How many channels can I connect with this 6-pack?

This pack gives you six individual cables, so you can connect up to six channels from your mixer to outboard gear. That's enough for stereo main outputs plus four auxiliary sends, or six separate channels to a multi-channel compressor or EQ unit.

Why do the cables come in different colors?

The six colors—blue, green, orange, red, yellow, and purple—make cable management much easier during setup and troubleshooting. You can assign specific colors to different signal paths, like red for main left, blue for main right, and green for monitor sends, so you can trace connections quickly in dimly lit venues.

Will these work with both analog and digital mixers?

Yes, these balanced cables work with any mixer that has XLR outputs, whether analog or digital. The signal type doesn't matter—what matters is the physical connector compatibility. Digital mixers often have XLR outputs for analog signals going to outboard processors and amplifiers.
