It have a ur22c steinburg interface and I want to hook up balances trs from monitors into stienburg interface. The back of my interface says “231 balanced trs”.
@@Studio2105 thanks for the quick response. Also I was wondering would a 14 foot length trs cable lower my signal quality compared to a shorter length?
I've had issues pluggin a TRS cable into my Loop pedal in my Guitar Amp effects loop, which is what led me to wonder TRS cables are interchangeable with TS. Thanks
If you're mixing TRS with TS cables it is somewhat a roll of the dice. If you're lucky the connectors line up properly and it works fine. I'd always suggest using the appropriate connectors (TRS for TRS, TS for TS) which will avoid the problems altogether.
Please help. My studio monitor speaker is "KRK Rokit 5 4G" and my audio interface is "Focusrite Scarlet 2i2". What is the best cable to use TS or TRS? If it's TRS, should it be balanced or unbalanced with mono or stereo? I hope you understand my question. Thank you.
Your best option would be to use mono balanced TRS cables as these will help reduce EMI/RF noise. If you don't have these available you can still use regular unbalanced TS cables e.g. normal instrument/guitar cables Btw, don't confuse TS/TRS with mono/stereo. Some folks see a TRS connector and immediately assume it's stereo.
@@Studio2105 One last doubt. Please do reply. In my case, "Mono balanced TRS cables" are better than "Stereo balanced TRS cables"? Because I'm searching in amazon and all I could find is "stereo balanced TRS cables" and "balanced mono/unbalanced stereo cables". Is "balanced mono TRS cables" are different than "balanced mono/unbalanced stereo cables"? Or are they same? Which one would be better? Please help. I have a pair of KRK Rokit 5 G4.
@@Studio2105 I am sorry, my english listening is not that good 🥲. It's hard for me to understand properly. However, I can read and write. It's better for me to understand properly.

Q2 : Long TS cable vs. long TRS A : A 1/4" TS (unbalanced) suffers from signal loss over long distances and is more susceptible to noise due to electromagnetic interference (EMI). A Balanced TRS cable doesn't suffer from the same problems due to its design and having good common mode rejection ratio. But this doesn't mean that you can swap a TS cable with a TRS cable. The wiring is entirely different as explained in the video.
It depends on the manufacturer. Check the spec sheet or product website to know if the aux sends are either a balanced or unbalanced. Use the appropriate cable accordingly
Use a regular TS cable. In theory you might be able to use a TRS cable but there won't be any sonic benefit because the output from the instrument is unbalanced. If the design tolerances of the input jacks are of there might be a possibility the cable contacts do not line up properly.
No. The XLR output is a low-impedance balanced mic-level signal meant for recording or sending to a PA. The amp needs to see a high-impedance unbalanced signal. Depending on your pedal there should be a 1/4" output instead.
@@Studio2105 thx for the reply..yes there is a 1/4 inch which I’m using right now after getting an acoustic preamp recently..😁 just a thought why not use xlr to trs..cheers from KL..
@Studio 21:05 i have a few different synths. i know some say unbalanced in the manual but some dont specifically say so im not fully sure on all of them
The benefit of balanced connections will only be evident when both inputs & outputs are balanced. In yours & most cases it will be perfectly fine to use regular 1/4" TS instrument cables. Only if noise becomes an issue then use D.I boxes
Hi, I have a stereo effects loop(2 inputs and 2 outputs) on my Fender Studio 40 bass amp..I plug in headphones for Stereo)I have a pedal going into the effects loop Neunaber Mk 2(Has 2 inputs and 2 outputs,I Use 4 TS cables etc to get stereo..However the pedal accepts TRS cable for stereo according to the manual.I want to buy a Red Panda Raster pedal that has only one input and one output but they are TRS compliant for stereo etc..I don't know how to cable up everything if I want to put the panda at the end of the signal chain..
You will need to get two pieces of 1/4" TRS to 1/4" TS split Y-cables. One you use to connect from the output of the Neunaber reverb pedal to input of the Raster delay. Then connect that back to the effects return on the amp.
Yes. Two 1/4" TS cables from the amp effects send -> Input of the reverb pedal -> Y-cable into the delay pedal -> Y-cable into the effects return. Total 4 cables : 2 x 1/4" TS 2 x 1/4" dual TS into 1/4" stereo TRS
@@Studio2105 Ok that sounds good!!But can it not be a single TRS to Trs cable coming from the Immerse to the Delay pedal thus making it 2 TS cables,I TRS to Dual TS,I TRS to Trs.. Also thank you for your time..

Thanks for the info. Vary useful.
You're welcome. Thanks for the comment!
Good review and very helpful.
Thank you for the comment. Glad you found it helpful.

Yes. Balanced TRS cables are the best option in your case.
@@Studio2105 thanks for the quick response. Also I was wondering would a 14 foot length trs cable lower my signal quality compared to a shorter length?
No. At that length any signal loss is insignificant. A balanced cable can be several hundred feet long before degradation gets noticeable.

Can I plug a keyboard directly to the studio monitors without using audio interface? My keyboard's output is balanced

Which cable is best for stage performance for instruments ts or trs? And also what happen when we use long ts cable and long trs cable?
Q1 : Which cable is best for stage performance?
A : Don't get confused. Instrument outputs are almost always 1/4" TS
Q2 : Long TS cable vs. long TRS
A : A 1/4" TS (unbalanced) suffers from signal loss over long distances and is more susceptible to noise due to electromagnetic interference (EMI). A Balanced TRS cable doesn't suffer from the same problems due to its design and having good common mode rejection ratio. But this doesn't mean that you can swap a TS cable with a TRS cable.

Is it good to use a TRS from an AUX SENDS on a mixer to an audio interface input?
It depends on the manufacturer. Check the spec sheet or product website to know if the aux sends are either a balanced or unbalanced. Use the appropriate cable accordingly
its better conect my bass or guitar with a trs cable on my interface? or should i conects just in with a ts mono cable?
great video¡¡

My acoustic preamp pedal has a DI. Can I use XLR TO TRS from the pedal to the acoustic guitar amp?
No. The XLR output is a low-impedance balanced mic-level signal meant for recording or sending to a PA.
The amp needs to see a high-impedance unbalanced signal. Depending on your pedal there should be a 1/4" output instead.

@@Studio2105 best acoustic sound still need mic..😁
That would be the preferred method
my mixer accepts all 3. should i use ts or trs with my synthesizers?
It depends on what type of outputs are on your synths. Are they balanced or unbalanced?
