DB25 patchbays have become the standard for recording studios because
they are a compact, reliable, and flexible solution that doesn't require
a ton of technical knowledge or maintenance. TT connections on the
front provide for up to 96 patch points in 1 RU of rack space while DB25
connections on the back provide for making all the connections required
on
12 DB25 snakes carrying 8 channels of signal each. We offer a range of patchbays from Audio Accessories, Bittree, Switchcraft, Redco, and Flock Audio. Pro Audio LA's specialty has always been a focus on
optimizing workflows, and patchbays are the secret sauce that makes
creativity in the studio effortless and inspiring. Picture easy access
to all the inputs and outputs of your gear at arm's reach without the
need to crawl behind your desk or racks to move your cabling around.
Create and change signal paths with ease and ensure you are getting the
absolute most out of your gear.
These patchbays conform to standard Tascam pinouts. You can find DB25 snakes to make your connections here:

Whether

Here is the 3-step process for scheduling a patchbay consultation:
1. Click HERE to purchase the consultation 2. Click HERE to fill out our pre-consultation questionnaire 3. Click HERE to schedule your Zoom appointment with our team
It's
always a good idea to allow 1 or 2 business days after submitting the
form for us to review the information so we can be best prepared for
the consultation.
You will then join in a Zoom meeting where we will build a patchbay
layout before your eyes, you can ask any questions you have to fully understand your designed workflows (both for tracking as well as mixing), and work out cable
configurations and lengths specific to your setup. With this information we can generate a quote/invoice pursuant to your consultation.
