FAQs

What is the primary purpose of the screening on this cable?

The screening (two-core shielding) is designed to prevent electromagnetic interference from other audio equipment or power supplies from affecting the audio signal, ensuring a cleaner sound.

Is this cable suitable for stereo microphones?

No, this is a standard 3-pin XLR microphone cable designed for mono signals. Stereo microphones typically require different connector types or specialized cables.

What does '1:1 pin connection' mean for XLR connectors?

It means that pin 1 on one connector connects directly to pin 1 on the other, pin 2 to pin 2, and pin 3 to pin 3. This is the standard configuration for balanced mono audio signals.

Can I use this cable for both dynamic and condenser microphones?

Yes, this cable is suitable for both dynamic and condenser microphones, as it simply transmits the audio signal. Condenser microphones will still require phantom power from your audio interface or mixer.

What is the cable diameter?

The cable has a diameter of 6mm, providing a balance of durability and flexibility.

How should I clean the connectors?

Use a dry, soft cloth to clean the metal XLR connectors. Avoid using liquids or abrasive materials that could damage the contacts.

What is the warranty period for this cable?

Warranty information is typically provided by the retailer. Please refer to your purchase receipt or the retailer's website for specific warranty details.

Troubleshooting

No audio signal

Ensure both ends of the XLR cable are fully and securely plugged into the devices. Check that the microphone and audio interface/mixer are powered on and configured correctly. Test with a different cable or microphone to isolate the issue.

Humming or buzzing noise

Verify that the cable's shielding is effective by ensuring it's not damaged. Try moving the cable away from power cables or large electrical equipment. Check that all equipment is properly grounded. Ensure the XLR connectors are clean.

Intermittent audio dropouts

Inspect the cable and connectors for any visible damage, such as cuts or frayed wires. Gently wiggle the connectors at both ends to check for loose connections. If the problem persists, the cable may need replacement.
