Great video! This is the closest I've come to understanding patchbays.

Thanks Omer. Glad you found the video useful. We're finishing up our sound waves playlist at present (just uploaded one on Speed of Sound) and we've had a lot of nice feedback on those videos too. Best wishes.

Excellent, like all your videos. I wonder why you don't have more hits. Thanks a lo!

Thanks David. We've been teaching audio theory for 20 years. It's tough stuff for most students, and definitely separates the serious and dedicated from the hobbyists! Why would you want to watch a video on common mode rejection when you can watch a video on how to sound like Jimi Hendrix (if not play like him!).

Half normalisation certainly duplicates the signal, but how you would use this to feature to combine 2 signals together we're not sure. Perhaps using parallels would be better? (ie passive summing)

Thank for sharing this, very useful. I currently setting up the patch bay connecting the UAD Apollo 16 with a Neve 8816. Do you have any suggested set up in the patch bay?
@Projectstudiohandbook9 жыл бұрын
You've got some great gear to connect. You probably want to think really carefully about how you might use it in the future. The most obvious thing to do would be to make looms and connect every connection to a B gauge patch bay (or 2!), normalising the Apollo outs on Neve ins and vice versa. You could also normalise the Neve cue outs to your headphone amp but leave the Neve master outs un-normalised, so you can patch in a mix bus compressor or other analogue mastering device. Alternatively, if you are only going to use the gear yourself you could forget about a patch bay and make direct connections until you have figured out what needs to be re-routeable and what doesn't, and then buy the patch bay you need. Whatever you do, we recommend using multicore cable especially as you have some D-subs to solder. Good luck.

is it possible to rec. 2 sources in the half normalization mode ? (double the interface ins)

Great vids! If I have a balanced patchbay and the majority of my connected devices (Synths & effects) are unbalanced mono. Can I use balanced patch cables on the front side or will that cause grounding or other issues?
@Projectstudiohandbook7 жыл бұрын
Everyone has this issue with some of their gear, especially synths which always have unbalanced jack outs. You should have no problem using balanced connections with unbalanced gear. Use balanced cable from the unbalanced jack outputs of your synth and effects. Solder both the ground/earth and return/negatives cores to the earth contact of your unbalanced jack plug. In the unlikely event that you experience an earth hum problem it will mostly likely be caused by a poorly designed device and you can experiment with completely detaching and insulating the return core at the plug.
@Projectstudiohandbook7 жыл бұрын
Should still work whether you use unbalanced TS or balanced TRS leads. If you use balanced TRS cable/plugs, return and live will short to the earth at the synth end. If you use unbalanced leads, solder to the live and earth terminals of the patch-bay. Leave the return unconnected. Best thing is to just try it.

can we build our own patchbay with tow sided demale balaned connection ? it is way more cheap
@Projectstudiohandbook8 жыл бұрын
We've never heard of anyone building their own patch bay, but why not? Just ensure your sockets are of good enough quality to withstand the amount of plugging and unplugging you need to do. Post a picture when you're done. We'd love to see it.
