Title: Star Quad Custom made cable
Post by: ricola on December 14, 2015, 05:13:36 PM

Hello folks,
I need a special cable for my Stereo mic to minimise noise interference by using two twisted cores (Star Quad Cable for Example Canare or Van Damme).

It is a (1) 5pin XLR split to (2) 3pin XLR adapter cable like this but used with that special Star Quad cable.

I still have this terrible cell noises (HF noises) in many of my recordings. So I think to use a Stare Quad cable is the ONLY way to eliminate this noises.

My Question: is there any experienced guy out here who can soldering me such a custom made cable of about 50cm length??

Thanks and greetings from Germany

Serious question, how close is your cell phone to your gear & do your recordings not have interference when you leave the cell @ home?

Canford Audio will make it for you.

Urder the cable from their website, order the connectors (in your case I would use the Neutrik EMC ones) and Canford Audio will make the can=ble to whatever length you require.

It's an excellent service and I have used it myself several times.
