Samfordia Posted January 27, 2016 Share Posted January 27, 2016 I now have everything that I need for my first pedalboard and have it all set it up and working. I am using some Klotz 6 inch cables that I already had access to but I wish to get some space saving connectors to complete the board. I'm pretty sure I could squeeze extra space for a couple more pedals sometime in the future. I'm not sure on the differing quality available and if going too cheap will result in a cable that will only be a problem long term. My eye is on the EBS PL-10 and PL-20 - [url="http://www.gear4music.com/Books-DVD-and-Sheet-Music/EBS-PL-10-Symmetric-Interconnect-Plug/P46"]http://www.gear4music.com/Books-DVD-and-Sheet-Music/EBS-PL-10-Symmetric-Interconnect-Plug/P46[/url] --- [url="http://www.gear4music.com/Books-DVD-and-Sheet-Music/EBS-PL-20-Concentric-Interconnect-Plug/P48"]http://www.gear4music.com/Books-DVD-and-Sheet-Music/EBS-PL-20-Concentric-Interconnect-Plug/P48[/url] They don't seem to be readily available though, and I will require 4 of each. Does anybody have any experience of these? Are there others that are known to be of a better or equal quality? Is there a site that sells many types of parch cables? Any other thoughts would be great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chevy-stu Posted January 27, 2016 Share Posted January 27, 2016 the trouble with those 2 way connector jacks is they fix the pedals together, so in a 'lively' gig environment i've found they stress and slowly destroy the sockets of your pedals.....

Samfordia Posted January 27, 2016 Author Share Posted January 27, 2016 Ah, I can see what you mean there. I hadn't thought of that. It is highly possibly that I would never be lively enough for that to happen though. But perhaps it's worth me considering the pancake style cables that have a physical lead in-between.

Stylon Pilson Posted January 27, 2016 Share Posted January 27, 2016 I'm using [url="http://www.thomann.de/gb/ebs_pcf_10_flat_patch_cable.htm"]EBS PCF-10[/url] cables and they're the business. If my pedals were any closer together then I'm not sure that I would be able to reliably activate/deactivate them without also accidentally triggering the adjacent ones. S.P.

Daz39 Posted January 27, 2016 Share Posted January 27, 2016 I use the EBS flat cables as well, they're brilliant and come in at least 3 sizes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Japhet Posted January 29, 2016 Share Posted January 29, 2016 I'm using the Diago Patch Factory kit which is essentially the same as the George L set. The reason I use these is that I can position the pedals I use most at the front of the board but run the whole lot in whatever order I like without making it look like a bowl of spaghetti.

Westie9 Posted February 2, 2016 Share Posted February 2, 2016 I'd rather the pancake style than the adapter style. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
