TSP Multicore Cable Query

[ert]

That would explain why u can't find them. I've found some other decent quality 4 way multicore cables through amazon so will get them instead.:-)

be carefull if you wanna use timecode you will need the y-splitter, with the rca input you connect your tt or cdj at. Most of the common multicores doesnt offer this option.

Yeah I was gunna say, I don't remember ever seeing anything suitable for the job and god knows I've looked.

Oh really? Thanks for the heads up. Would you mind posting a link of something I could use. I need to get a replacement cable and don't really fancy forking out for the official traktor ones. I will be using timecode.

Why don't NI sell the other ones?

2 of those (or any similar) + some RCA cables. One female end plugs into the turntable's rca, the other female end plugs into the soundcard input's RCA, the male end plugs into the mixer.

You can tape them with different colours or whatever to make the muddle of wires easier to understand.

whats your problem with the older NI multicores?

[MrPopinjay]

They are damn expensive for a bit of wire.

[ert]

the newer ones wouldnt be much cheaper a pair coasts about 60 dollars... but they are damn convenient...

Cheers dude. I agree they are far to expensive for what they are.

Ok, 2 multicore cables = £50.

My rca splitter solution = £6.

And that's without shopping around. I bet I can find cheaper if I look.

These are what you need:

2 per turntable, + an RCA cable coming back from the soundcard into the line in on your mixer. That'll allow you to flip between timecode and regular vinyl using the line/phono switch.
