[QUOTE="Arik Semagin, post: 147558, member: 5072"] Re: Cable I was messing with UTP earlier, one solution that may help is to power the stage box from the same power strip (same UPS in my case) via grounded extension cord. It sounds kinda stupid to run extension cord that long but it provides a solid ground connection between the mixer and the stage box, thus eliminating static discharge. Not 100% guaranteed, but in some situations may help. Building electrical ground may be bad (even though your pocket tester shows that the power outlet is grounded). Don't assume that building ground is solid all the way, I've seen a sloppy electrical work more than a few times. BUt of course using STP, even generic ones, is preferred. [/QUOTE]
