Hey guys hows it going i got another simple question I have a mackie 1642 mixer with 16 channels I need some recommendations on wires to connect my 8 outs to my mixer should i get individual 1"4 in. to 1"4 wires, Double 1"4 to 1"4 Wires, Or a 8 I/O 1"4 to 1"4 Snake cable to connect my MPC to my Mixer. Which one do you guys recommend? Are there any brands you recommend? Thanks in advance.

budget is a big issue when it comes to cable you can easily spend hundreds on cables. ive seen many on this forum reccomend monster or mogami which will cost you a bundle. i have to say it depends also on how your system is already cabled i considered buying monster or mogami until i tested some monster cables i have against my hosa snake left over from my adat xt i saw no difference in sound quality, monster signal was slightly hotter which was compensated with just one click of the + button in the mix page. so dont get caught up in the hype unless your money is long enough to were is doesnt matter. The way your project is mixed will have a bigger impact on the sound quality of your tracks. so a hosa snake would be a good starting point (1/4 to 1/4)
