Re: Loomed Sub Multis - power, XLR, NL2



 

I've never met a mic position that was too close to work with a 25' cable.  I just coil the end near the base of the mic stand (so I don't end up with a pile of coils by the subsnake).  When the mic has to move there is usually enough extra cable to accommodate the move.  I do use shorter cables on the drum kit, but otherwise its 25' or longer.


To the OP.  I feel that if you have a lot of looms (with only a few mic lines each) you are going to spend a lot of time cross-patching.  Why not just drop a 12 channel sub-snake down stage center and patch all downstage mic lines there.  Put the vocals in the last 3-5 channels, start the keyboards and acoustic guitars on the first few channels, and then meet in the middle.
