XLR's for sound board Feed
Do I need balanced cables for this? I probably will need 50' cables. This is a charity event that will have speech and music coming off the PA/Sound board. Thanks!

It's also a good idea to have "turnarounds" (sex changers) with you in case the board needs a female plug and your cable is a male... :-)

it depends how often you need to do things like this...
i do feeds off of sound boards pretty often so what i almost always use is a wireless setup so i'm free of a long cable for everyone there to trip over. it also greatly frees up where you can setup the camera. i use the sennheiser stuff and the g2 series is a good setup for the money. the specific piece you need to do this would be the plug on transmitter. it comes in both the phantom powered and non phantom powered versions. for what you are doing you certainly don't need to spend the extra $ for the phantom version, plus if you have the phantom version and it should accidently end up with the phantom power turned on it can wreak havoc with the sound board. matthew |
