benr Posted February 12, 2013 Report Posted February 12, 2013 I did a few searches and didnt find this posted or mentioned anywhere else and I just found out about it myself so I apologize upfront if you guys have already heard of these, but I thought they were too cool to not let other know about. The Neutrik NC3FM-C Unisex XLR cable connector: LINK, Video, Buy Pretty cool cable to have in the bag that can be a both M-M, F-F and M-F all at once!
soundtrane Posted February 12, 2013 Report Posted February 12, 2013 Oh man, i've had one cable with one of these on either side for four years i think, have never had to use it. Yet, one day, if it is needed, it's there in the case!
benr Posted February 12, 2013 Author Report Posted February 12, 2013 Oh wow, they've been out that long? Or were they another brand? If so sorry guys, I had just never seen them talked about around here so I thought Id setup a thread on them as Im sure knowing about them would be helpful to someone else out there.
al mcguire Posted February 12, 2013 Report Posted February 12, 2013 I think these are illegal to use in the American south. An XLR should know what it is and just be that way.
Rick Reineke Posted February 12, 2013 Report Posted February 12, 2013 They have been out for a few years. Great idea, but at $18 a shot, I carry gender-benders I already have. The term 'gender-bender' can also get you into trouble.
Marc Wielage Posted February 13, 2013 Report Posted February 13, 2013 I think these are illegal to use in the American south. An XLR should know what it is and just be that way. What if it's "born that way"?
benr Posted February 13, 2013 Author Report Posted February 13, 2013 HA HA HA!!! Great stuff here! Okay, well they were new to me, didnt realize they had been out a while. Sorry folks, nothing new to see here.
Jeff Wexler Posted February 13, 2013 Report Posted February 13, 2013 They have been out for a few years. Great idea, but at $18 a shot, I carry gender-benders I already have. The term 'gender-bender' can also get you into trouble. Is "gender-bender" the slightly more politically correct term for sex-changer? Sex-changer is what I have always called the connector that has the same sex on both ends. Reading this, "same sex on both ends" really sounds bad, sorry.
John Blankenship Posted February 13, 2013 Report Posted February 13, 2013 Forgive Jeff. One of his first crew experiences was on "Harold and Maude." That'll skew your view of the world. (Among my favorite films, so that says something about me, too.) While Harold's mother is interviewing a prospective date for him, the girl watches out the window, horrified, as he ceremoniously sets file to himself. Moments later... "Oh, here's Harold now." ... It doesn't get any better than that. (I'm not sure why this thread brought that to mind.)
