Turtlerock Forum

Hi all. Things are looking good. I've built the new Sayers-designed studio (control room and four spaces) and have all my buried cables with XLRs on the ends. At the control room end I'm looking at putting in a quality patchbay with XLR ins for mic signals and with DB 25 outs to XLR ins on pres and DB 25 out/in to AD?DA converters. Can anyone recommend a manufactured unit (modular)? or a tech in Oz who might make these up?

cheers

Hi Pete,

I've been very happy with the Switchcraft PT16FX2DB25 units we have here.

Don't know if anyone stocks them down this way, but you'll find plenty of options online such as:

http://www.markertek.com/Patchbays-Wall ... T16FX2DB25

do a search on Redco (US) - good patchbays with dsub

Redco - under $100 per 8 way DSUB to XLR
Some idiots charge stupid $ for these things - always pays to do the homework.
Trock is the best place for communal homework.

we sell these http://ponymusic.com.au/Shop/vmchk/Prod ... yword=d8xi
8 x ch xlr - 2 x db25 (in male or female and the rack ears can go on either side...) the retail is $165.00

there is also a 16 channel version with XLR split... its available with a transformer split option....
