Product Benefits
-
Professional Audio Quality: Ensures your audio signal remains intact from source to destination, essential for recordings and live performances.
-
Maximum Durability: Designed for heavy use, this cable withstands the test of time, being stepped on, and constant connections and disconnections.
-
Flexibility in your Connections: Allows you to connect a single output to two different inputs or integrate external effects processors into your mixing console in a simple and efficient way.
-
Practical Solution: The "two-in-one" design as an insert cable or splitter eliminates the need for additional adapters, simplifying your audio setup.
Use Cases
The dual functionality of the PD-Connex CX56-3 makes it indispensable in multiple scenarios:
-
Insert Cable: It is the perfect tool to connect an external effects processor, such as a compressor, equalizer or noise gate, to a specific channel of a mixing console through its insert point.
-
Splitter Cable: Allows you to split a mono audio signal from an XLR output and send it to two different destinations with 6.3mm Jack inputs, such as two amplifiers, a monitoring system and an audio interface, or two channels of a mixer.
-
Instrument Connection: Ideal for connecting equipment with a mono XLR output (such as microphone preamps or some synthesizers) to devices with dual mono jack inputs.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does this cable transmit a stereo signal?
No. This cable takes a single mono signal from the XLR source and splits it into two identical mono signals at the jack connectors. It is not designed to carry a stereo (left and right) signal.
Is this a balanced cable?
The signal carried by this cable is unbalanced. Although it starts with an XLR connector (typically used for balanced signals), it splits into two TS connectors (mono jacks), which by definition are unbalanced.
Can I use it to connect a microphone to two inputs on a mixer?
Yes, you can use it to split a microphone signal (previously amplified to line level) from an XLR output to two different channels of a mixing console or audio interface that have 6.3mm jack line inputs.
