In case you’ve missed it, Redco is making two inexpensive tools that will turn some blank space in your DB-25 patchbay into something you can actually use. First: a 4x2 mult in a DB-25 backshell for $30 – plug this into the back of a D-sub based patchbay and you have instant mult points. Infinitely useful, maintenance-free, and fairly difficult to fabricate otherwise. Second: a Ghostbusters floor-trap style snake box with your choice of XLR female, XLR/TRS combo jacks, or XLR male (re-amp party!) on top, and a DB-25 female connector on the side. These come in eight, 16, and 24-channel configurations. The eight-channel box is $95 and is built like a ship! I added 24-channels of tie lines to my control room in 20 minutes with cable I had sitting around already!

Using Pro Tools? Got 888/24s? Does leaving tape behind make you feel creepy? Or does fixing stuff on PT and then putting it back worry you? Heard about the more expensive Apogees? Well get hip to...
