Great job and thanks for showing this off, Rasteri!:) Now to the usual "you better listen to me comment" everyone should ignore, hehehe: What you want on stage is the simplest thing possible. Additional switch? Will let you down in the worst moment! Fancy technical implementation? Works always on soundcheck, but seldom after the third stage-diving round. Batteries? ... You get it!:) Have fun headbanging, friends!
I have to say neutrik connectors really do think of everything including the bag. I did not know they had a special audio file crystals like that network switch I saw an LTT. I did sound for an open mic night coffee house thing and we had one of those fancy cables with a push button switch. What a headache if you think having a switch on a microphone is bad imagine having one on a cable... why is there no sound you didn't turn me on, no you didn't turn the switch on or if I pre-turned the switch on they would find a reason to turn it off between acts.
As a musician I would guess guitar players would love this. I have yet to meet one who is EVER satisfied with the number of ways to manipulate their tone. It's sort of a running joke and a bit of headache for sound engineers. Can't keep things consistent when the lead has 10^50 options to escape the gates, compressors and filters meant to tame them down.
One of the more useful things for altering guitar tone is replacing one of the Tone knobs with a rotary switch that connects a capacitor in series. Works wonders to roll off the low end, often much needed with those boomy neck humbuckers.For a rotary switch I used a 12-position one. Caps connected are 1u down to 0.01u, and one position for 'no cap' (shorted). As for cap in parallel and even regular tone knobs on the guitar - in heavy rock or metal music I never find any use for those. Typically, you want all the high end you can get.

This is fantastic. That 1ft lead is gold too.

I loved that frequency comparison of the different filters, damn!
But yeah, the quiet plug feature is actually pretty compelling.
I would love a fancy 1ft lead to hook up my pedalboard to my big old spring reverb box which goes on into the amp
Extra kudos for correctly pronouncing Neutrik.
There's too much kick and especially high kick from this Van Damme cable :)
At 4:51 nice, robust and simple, that's the definition of Van Damme :)

lol. fun video. i appreciated the in-depth analysis of the effect of the capacitors and the comparison with the tone switch
Sweet video
