You can now have your cake and eat it too. 1/8" "Banana cables" for your EuroRack modular and more. The one thing "bananalogue" modulars had over your standard 1/8" and 1/4" patch cable modulars was the ability to stack cables. You can now do this with 1/8" cables (and 1/4" with adapters). If you looked closely at this post, you might have noticed an extra plug at the end of the already plugged in 1/8" cable. These patent pending cables will be available via TipTop Audio.
More info coming...

wow this seems really cool...I just sold my Serge and bought a second euro system
ReplyDeleteThis would be incredible. I'd love to use these on the synth I'm building if they aren't as overpriced as regular banana cables.
ReplyDeleteWell you can't actually eat your cake just yet. May be brilliant but potentially risks new kinds of strain especially with long cables. You have that with bananas too but they are more simple and stocky connections
ReplyDeleteInteresting but i wouldn't want to stack those cables on modules that have cliff jacks.
ReplyDeleteI find Y-splitters to be more convenient, cheap, and readily available.

I have 5 of them that I got for less than $2 each.
fac, Yyyy d'ya have to ruin the party?
ReplyDeletei just sold my buchla and bought a "beater" euro system for my cats to play with. they'll be psyched about stackin jacks.
Thank you Gur, you are amazing. I have been waiting for this for a while. My modular systems eagerly await! Going to be Feedback insanity!!!=)

Modular, schmodular: I've got a whole crate of stompboxes over here that I can hardly wait to start blowing up. ;)
ReplyDeleteI've been waiting for someone to come out with this for soooooo long. Very exciting.
ReplyDeletework with chris muir and make his atten-able jumpers.
ReplyDeletefac, are you indeed a fac? like a nail or a misty?
I am nervous about using these too. Banana inputs have one conductor and can be half in and still work, not the tight straight connection 1/8" needs with easily breakable ineternals. I'd not put more than one cable into one of these and not another stackable one.
ReplyDeleteNot sure why both ends of the cable are stackable. You should always source from a single point. Especially for pitch CVs. Making only one end stackable (used at the output of a module) would reduce the cost of said cable.
ReplyDeleteAs for patent pending - the US is not a first to file country and I've seen sketches of this very idea floating around for more than a decade, so good luck with fighting off copycats with a patent.
