Pro Snake MTS2408-30 Multicore

Here is my opinion on the cables multicore PRO SNAKE MTS2408-30 MULTICORE sold Thomann.de

A friend had bought and I found it very practical and in my budget. So I bought my turn 2 years ago.

Multicore:
24 channels (1 24) scne-> console
2-way Main (L + R) console-> scne
6 channel AUX (AUX1 AUX6) console-> scne

Length 30m

In the same quality there are other numbers of channels and other 30 or 40m lengths.
There are also MODELS multicore with power for direct connection to the console (it is then necessary to connect the console that made all the inputs and outputs).
It is very practical if you have to use it with always the same console, which is not my case.

MODEL is the most basic economic and allowing to work properly.

Warning: it's not extremely pro gear solid: the cables are low-Diameter, the connection is not Neutrik but the Amphenol, the drum is plastic and not mtallique, etc..

But it is perfectly usable condition of the mnager, a multicore as elsewhere still fragile and mnager.
He has two big advantages:

-The Casing of the ct scne fix the reel. That is my essential since exrience shows that multicore is rapidly becoming unusable if not d Roul renroul then on his drum use.
So without multicore cable drum abstain.

The price-trs available, half of the other models on sale in the market.

It is fairly lightweight and not bulky for this rev ganre of stuff, so very easy to handle and transport.

I will note as well 10/10 I am satisfied, but I Ramna my valuation 9 out of 10 because if I had a lot of money j'achterai MODEL done all pro.
But we must be content with the means available.

Personal Tip: I added the Main L + R made ​​in parallle catch home because I often supply several broadcasts, or send the main output in the headphones of the drummer.

Perhaps one day I add other outputs AUX parallle because there is still room on the plate.
Purpose: To supply several asset returns on a given line of auxiliary.

I bought this because a multi boyfriend used it and was satisfied.
I am equally happy for 5 years. Good value for money.

-24 Way XLR go
-8 Lanes in the other direction, including 2 XLR any marked L and R, plus 6 auxiliary XLR and TRS next scene on the console side, marked with AUX1 AUX 6. From classic.

The length of 30m suits me well so far and allowed me to go anywhere.
For me it is useless to undertake 40m to never use it.

Its connectors are not Neutrik, but are of sufficient quality.

Without being as a sturdy and durable multi-professional major brand, it does its job.

The big cable and cable multi unit are thinner than the multi professional for heavy use.
So gear lighter, less expensive and more fragile.
Would be inappropriate to rent for a renter or a service.

But in the meantime, my arms and my back enjoy a gear too heavy to carry, and my wallet is saying that or nothing!

Just take care and it can take some precautions.

Like all multis, it is the console that flourished side are fragile, especially at the point of separation of the large cable multiple unit for cables and do not shoot too.

This model features a side console collar grips the big cable and properly protects the outputs of individual cables by its rounded progressive.
This necklace also has a piece of string. I put a climbing carabiner (see sports stores) and I always start by hooking the wire to a ring screwed on my console.

Then and only then, I console cable without having to pull cables fragile.
Without this hook, as the package is heavy cables, one cable plugged into the console would have to bear too much weight and would be in danger.

The "stage box" on the drum is very convenient.

I added two additional XLR wired in parallel with L and R (for channel power amps).
This allows me the most often send these signals to the drummer returns, or possibly to additional amplifiers.
