FAQs

What does 'TS' stand for in 3.5mm TS?

TS stands for Tip-Sleeve. It denotes a mono audio connector with two conductors: one for the signal (Tip) and one for the ground (Sleeve).

Are these cables stereo?

No, these are 3.5mm TS (Tip-Sleeve) cables, which are mono. Stereo cables typically use a 3.5mm TRS (Tip-Ring-Sleeve) connector.

How many cables are included in this pack?

This pack includes 5 Nazca Noodles patch cables.

What is the 'Eurorack-style' designation?

It refers to the standard 3.5mm TS jack size commonly used in Eurorack modular synthesizer systems.

Can I use these cables for MIDI?

While some older or specialized MIDI equipment might use 3.5mm jacks, these cables are primarily designed for audio and control voltage signals in modular synthesis. Standard MIDI uses 5-pin DIN connectors.

What other colors and lengths are available?

Nazca Noodles are available in six different colors and seven different lengths per color, offering a wide variety for system customization.

Troubleshooting

No audio signal or control voltage passing through.

Ensure both ends of the cable are securely plugged into the correct input and output jacks. Test the cable with a known working connection or try a different cable to rule out a faulty connection.

Intermittent signal or crackling noise.

Check for any damage to the cable or connectors. Ensure the connectors are clean and free of debris. Gently wiggle the connectors at both ends to see if the issue is a loose connection.

Cable feels stiff or difficult to plug in.

Verify that you are using a 3.5mm TS jack. Do not force the connection, as this may damage the module's jack or the cable's connector. Ensure the correct length and type of cable are being used for the intended purpose.
