Use cases
This cable is extremely versatile and suitable for a wide variety of situations. It's perfect for singers and speakers who need to connect their dynamic microphone directly to the line input of a powered speaker. It's also ideal for musicians who want to connect the line output of keyboards, synthesizers, or drum machines to a mixer channel with a jack input. In the studio, it facilitates connecting microphones to preamps or interfaces that use this type of unbalanced input.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is this cable suitable for connecting a condenser microphone?
This is not recommended. Condenser microphones require phantom power, which is transmitted through balanced cables (XLR to XLR). This cable, having a mono jack connector, is unbalanced and cannot carry that power.
Is the jack connection stereo or mono?
The jack connector on this cable is mono (TS), designed for an unbalanced signal, which is the standard for most dynamic microphones and instrument connections.
Can I use this cable to connect a guitar to a mixer?
This is not its primary use. To connect a guitar directly to a mixer, it is recommended to use a standard instrument cable (Jack to Jack) and, preferably, through a direct injection (DI) box to match the impedance and balance the signal, especially over long distances.
