NI Multicore Cables

DJ Life & Community General Discussion

Yes ive just read on the NI site and what i want to do is definitely possible. The mixer segments connect a turntable and a cdj to my mixer so i need two of them which is what you get in a pack.

‘The Mixer Segments are specially wired so that the phono signal is always routed, allowing you to play traditional vinyl or CDs without connecting the AUDIO 8 DJ’

Now all i need is the Audio8 cables but i cant find them anywhere, anyone know ?

EDIT: No still cant have them all plugged in at once can you as the mixer segments dont have enough rcas. You must be able to have either 2 turntables OR 2 cdjs setup in that way but not all 4 at once.

And also ive found the audio 8 segments you have to buy the pack called “1 replacement cable” not the “2 mixer segments”

EDIT2: Actually i can cant i but it would cost me mega bucks as i would need 4 of these http://co.native-instruments.com/index.php?id=4101&prid=222&redirected=1 :eek:

Yeah you may need 4 sets of multicores to do it properly.

2 more “replacement Cables” as well the 2 you get with TSP (unless you are upgrading) then its 4 sets of multicores.

Yup will be upgrading as i already own the audio 8 so its 4 sets , thats nearly 100 smackers!!

Sorry to bump old thread, but how’s the sound quality of the multi core cables? I’m thinking of purchasing but i heard that sound quality and cable quality is poor, is that true?

No better or worse than a good set of interconnects. The only real benefit is if your rig is transportable. It means you don’t have to keep unplugging all the interconnects, and wearing out the connections on your gear.

Saying that - I’d love a pair. But they are goddamn expensive!
