Avid DB25 - DB25 Digisnake 12

The thumbscrews were too long for the DB25s on JoeCo and Mackie equipment and I had to add washers on the shoulder of the connectors to get them to securely into the sockets. Washers varied on each side and between connectors implying inconsistent manufacture.

The modification followed a period of bad connectivity and head scratching. Be prepared by having washers - don't expect them to work out of the box. All ok now.

I was a bit surprised to find the avid lead was the cheapest quality cable when I searched - normally avid are more expensive than others so I wondered if I'd missed something. I hadn't. This is a good quality cable at a decent price. I use it in an analogue context rather than digital and have had no problems.

If you need a multicore snake for analog audio, look no further. This is heavy duty and very well built.
