Long term investment

Very good quality. I use it in a studio-environment but I am sure it will hold up in live situations as well. For this price you get a lot of quality and it feels like it will last for a long time.

Works as it should and built like a tank

The patchbay works as it should and is built very well. Whether only XLR connections work for you is a matter of preferrence.

Good all round

Very pleasant to use, with a good build and elegant design. I use it as an interface to my rack making the inputs of my rack-mounted mixer and effects units more easily accessible. I highly recommend this product.

Super useful, great price!

Not many XLR patchbays to be found around... and this one is really well made, with the added bonus of allowing it to be flipped over, front/backwards, as to cater for M or F front panel connections.

Only minuses are that the latching of the XLR connectors themselves could be a bit better, and that when flipped, the "Designed in USA / Made in China" decal becomes your front panel, while the company logo & model name become hidden in the back of your rack - they should have put them on both front & back, and moved that "Designed/Made" thing somewhere on the sides, or on the bottom of the unit.

Anyway, using a couple of these it in the studio and in several outboard racks, does the job perfectly, and for a friendly price!

Good solid XLR Patchbay

Very nice and solid XLR patchbay. Very good idea to have reversable rack ears. Solid connections. All in all good well built unit.

Highly Recommended

Great for rack mounted audio interfaces

I use this with a Focusrite Scarlett 18i20 and a Focusrite Octopre MKII. as both of these units have most of their microphone inputs on the back, this makes everything much more accessible!

Doesn't require a power source and transfers phantom power from what ever you use it with!

It certainly makes life much easier in the home studio!

Great unit

Awesome little unit, makes it so much easier to access the inputs on the back of my interfaces, also useful for patching through different pre amps for auditioning and use. Plus the reversible rack ears are a blessing in disguise.
