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

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
you need BOTH 1/4 cables plugged in to get stereo. otherwise its just going to be right or left channel.
Is it possible to find a cable that's inherently 1/8 stereo to 1/4 stereo (1 jack)?

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)

You might just have to get an adapter.

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?

if you are going to plug it into a mixer the inset cable is what you will need.
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.

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.
