Why YOU Should Be Making Your Own TS/TRS/XLR Cables + Tutorial!

Please join us for a detailed tutorial on how to make your own TRS and XLR cables. Experienced musicians may already have this skill, but newcomers are often a bit intimidated by the idea of making their own. There are many advantages... with cost being the most important to the average musician. However, in practice, there are many other benefits including my favorite: NO MORE ADAPTERS! Adapters are expensive and can often cause signal loss issues. If cable management is a priority in your studio, you will make your job far easier going the DIY route. The one and only downside is the time you give up making them :)

**PLEASE always solder in a well ventilated area!**
