hahahahaha..... sorry, i thought you had it! i'll be sure to post if i figure it out.

a guy at sam ash in NYC told me about this stuff called "mu-metal" that supposedly insulates power cables from audio cables nicely. since then i haven't found any info on it.

hey, would you mind pointing me to that info?

thanks!

i just bought a speaker switcher box that is wired parallel and i would like to rewire it in series. does anyone know of a link that would have some useful info on this?

you know.... you're right!

i am very thankful to have a best friend who works for redco. he gets me the goods with his discount.... they are pretty fast, too!

thanks so much! that is very helpful info.

i just have an alesis rs-150 reference amp hooked up to a little behringer mixer going through a set of event monitors. both the mixer and the amp have balanced in's and out's.

thanks for your help, guys! i actually have that van den hul stuff printed out by my soldering station.... it's how i learned to solder in the first place. it just seemed unclear to me the difference between the way you would solder a stereo cable versus a balanced cable. i have to admit, i still do...

i just started making my own cables and i have a question: what differentiates making a balanced cable versus a stereo cable? i'm told by folks that they are not the same thing and i want to make sure i'm soldering the right connections. i'm in the process of making a bunch of balanced cables to con...

does anyone out there have this monitoring system? my monitors and poweramp have both decided to die on me simultaneously.... i have VERY limited funds and i came across this m-audio system, which is very affordable. i can't seem to find very many reviews on this item so i figured i would post this ...

hey, thanks for the info. it looks like this is exactly what i need. and it's not crazy-expensive, which is nice!

i'm wondering if there is a such thing as an a/b box for monitor sets.... i would like to be able to have at least two sets of monitors hooked up to my stuff and be able to switch back and forth for reference.

does anyone know if this exists and if so, what it's called & who sells it?

actually, it can. when the mbox forst came out i bought it thinking it was going to be the answer to my problem. of course i would rather stick with pro tools! it's my weapon of choice through and through. but the mbox would crash while we were practicing. i think the fact that it is uses a usb conn...

since this is for a live situation only (i don't plan to record with this device at all), i just need the 8 outputs i have on the thing.... 4 stereo pairs. the issue is not with the unit itself. it WILL do what i am wanting it to do (it's a big part of their sales pitch for the thing). the question ...

i just bought one of those m-audio firewire 410 mobile recording interface devices. i'm in one of those new-fangled laptop bands and we were looking for a way to have separate outs so we could separate the drums from the bass, etc. it sounds terrible going out from the little 1/8" stereo headphone j...
