Just got 8 outs, cable suggestions/help?

Sup fam. Hey i just copped the 8 output board for my 2kxl. So, now I need to get some cables for this thing.

I've seen a good deal on a 8 channel TRS patch kit, 6 foot long. Its nice cuz it's all wrapped together for most of the length so it will be neater than having 8 separate cables. Only thing I can think of to worry about is the cable shielding. I don't wanna pick up a bunch of noise.

So, any of ya use the 8 outs? What do you connect things up with?

I'm actually lookin at a 15' instead of 6'. I think that 6 might be too short if I take things outta my home studio environment some day.

Does the mpc2000 xl even supply balanced outputs????

According to the manual, the answer is no. So, trs are balanced? Ok, I'll expand the search for unbalanced cables. Good looks man.

ok i found this:

8 color coded TS to TS (unbalanced tip sleeve) channel, 10 ft long, equipped with 18K gold plated connectors for maximum conductivity

look alright? would like to get 10 for that stereo out but this should work for now.

Go to redco.com - order mogami unbulanced cable 20 ft. pick up any connectors, (neutrick) are the best one, pick up diferrent colors for connectors.
If you want them be together, order mogami shake cable, as many ft. as you like!

as much as i'd like to build my own, going to redco will probably put me around $80-100. I can buy this 8 channel kit for $25 and yeah, i know you get what you pay for, but until someone buys my xbox 360, I can't really be pushin out another $100 for the cables

Mogami is where its at.
