Three 10m mic cables away and your whole (low) day work is gone.
I build my own cables. I print heat Dymo labels, get them under a standard clear shrink tube (found in any electronic store). Don't heat to much on tube or Dymo label turns black !
Losing very few now.

Re: personalized heat shrink tubing for my cables ... ?
I bought a big pack of bright yellow cable ties. They come in all kinds of colors. I put one on each end of each cord, trim the tail so I've just got a colored ring. There is now never any confusion about what is mine.wonder wrote:I'm looking for heat shrink tubing for my cables in my live rig and want to find a company that makes these where I can prink my name on them.

Great tip! Also, the old Sharpie works well on everything that isn't blackdaniel.sneed wrote:Three 10m mic cables away and your whole (low) day work is gone.

There's also this:

But it requires that you also have the labeler.
