I think I'm gonna try my hand at building my cables

So since I love soldering, and spent all this money on soldering stuff when I was rebuilding/refurbing old Ataris and other consoles, I'll give it a shot.

I think I might like to try that BTPA 0446 cable that looks fairly priced and some Neutrik gold plated connectors to make some guitar cables, or lines to hook the expression pedals up to the Helix, and to run from my tuner to the Helix input. However, I could use a good XLR cable recommendation from them. I guess I'll also just get Neutrik XLR connectors, along with a couple 1/4" trs connectors for hooking my interface up to my monitors.

I have some nice high quality wire strippers so I guess I'll have to get creative on how to use these w/o killing the strands inside.
 
Do it it’s easy. G&H connectors are killer. I made and sold cables in eBay for more than 10yrs and I started the business before I learned how to make them 🤣
 
@Matt300ZXT - you've really been on a DIY kick lately.

Good on you :cheers:

I couldn't solder a roach clip to a hotplate of 80/20

You wouldn't happen to have a high-profile alt around these parts would you?

Redco in the US is a great supplier for all quantities.

Neutrik connectors are also sold there which are great and an industry standard.

My go to for guitar cables was Mogami 2524 for longer cables and Mogami 2314 for shorter runs (like pedalboards, rack systems etc)

You can even buy your solder from them too
