Whoa.

I got the random thought of tracking the delivery progress of the insert cable I ordered from Sweetwater since it's been awhile since I placed the order. I literally looked a minute ago on the website, found out it was delivered today, and placed on my front door. I went outside and there it was.

BRB, checking to see if I can wish other things to appear outside.

TRS is not really a stereo cable.  its a balanced audio cable http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Balanced_audio

so if you plug it into a mixer you will not get stereo.  if you plan on plugging it into a mixer you are going to want an insert cable so you have a left and right pair.

Ah understood. Thanks for all your help!

I ended up getting that insert y-cable anyway. Is the one you posted just now stereo to stereo?

edit: nvm I'm guessing all TRS is stereo?

Either way, would you recommend the cable you listed above or the insert y cable?

i doubt you are going to find any shielded insert cables.  just get the hosa i linked to

you need BOTH 1/4 cables plugged in to get stereo.  otherwise its just going to be right or left channel.

Here in são paulo we have a store who assembles it and their cables are the best. I have two mono and one stereo (i dunno the measures in english, all I know is they are P2 to P10)

so you are going to plug it into a headphone jack?  i don't know of much stuff that uses a 1/4 cable for stereo besides that.....

Ok, just to clarify:

Those Hosa's - I'd be plugging in the 1/8 male into the GB then BOTH of the 1/4s go into my PA (if I'm using a PA at the time)?

Also, this is what's meant by shielded cables: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shielded_cable

i doubt you are going to find any shielded insert cables.  just get the hosa i linked to

35 dollars for a 10 foot 1/8 to 1/4 cable.  mogami cable and nice connectors but still.. damn

What specs did you pick for your cables?

mogami unbalanced dual cable.
10 feet
3.5mm conector basic one
2 1/4 TS cheap connectors for the other end.

its just that its a special order cable.  if i wasn't making an insert cable i'm sure it would be cheaper..   but then it wouldn't do what it needs to do
