These cables might be a luxery. Buy them. I did. But don't moan about packaging. Glossy packaging you throw in the trash is a waste of money and earths resources.
You are one cool dude! Love your stuff You are so correct about EA SIS cables! I was SHOCKED with the increase in tone quality when I replaced all my pre-made cables with these! Worth every penny!
Well said my friend, cables are very important. We have been doing A/B comparisons and wow , it's amazing what different there is between different types of cables. I too see lots of amazing rigs with cheap cables, it's like buying a high end car and feeding it cheap gas, well it will not perform. .
I love screw in solderless cables. I have mainly used Lava Tightrope (same concept as these) But as a UK resident it's now A LOT easier to buy Evidence audio. These are essential for big pedal switcher boards
Same, Lava Tightrope as I use a fairly large board with a low-profile switcher. Evidence Audio SIS are still very expensive in Australia. I can't afford any atm, but I am definitely going to get some...eventually. Without going into debt.
Haha, it shows that you lived in the US, in British English the 'l' in solder is actually not silent. And I even heard some american demo people mention that it's wrong to pronounce it like 'sodder'... The most expensive cables I ever bought are two Sommer cables with HiCon plugs, just a little below the price of what you show here. I just want to try it out ...and honestly, in 2-3 years I couldn't notice much difference to the Thomann ProSnake patch cables for €2.50... Maybe if I had bought 10 of each at the same time, more of the cheap ones would be defective by now, but who knows.
+DMSProduktions Yeah well, like I wrote, even some americans claim that... But if you look up an 'official' how to pronounce it in AE, on Merriam Webster for example, the voice sample indeed is saying 'sodder'... (and everywhere you'll find comments stating how wrong that is) You're from Australia as I recall, so I can understand your disgust ; )
+DerEchteBold GUYS.... they a great cables... wether they are SODDERED or SOLDERED.... I love that this has turned into a linguistics discussion.... seriously... I think it is way cool.... people meeting on my pedal channel to discuss the intricacies of the english language...
Thanks for the video man, I was actually just thinking today, I built my own pedalboard with a lot of high end pedals, like Strymon, Eventide, TC, and MXR stuff, spent a LOT of money on the pedals, but there's this freaking annoying buzz, so today I thought: WELL..... MAYBE..... time for new patchcables, but not sure which ones to get so :P
message from over the pond , (well 2 messages) - 1. thank you for the great videos, you turned me on to the joyo loop series, so i can have my pedals on all the time (SO THANK YOU) - 2. Keep saying Solder how you say it mate, ;-) you and me, (and the rest of the english speaking world) we have to sick together :-) heh. xx much love from the UK mate.
But what do you think about using adapters for connecting pedals? Some thing like _Planet Waves 1/4 Inck Male Mono Inline Adapter_ or similar staff instead of using(soldering) patch cables.
Moin, mit Hilfe der Tips aus deinen Vids hab ich nun mein erstes Pedalboard fast fertig. Momentan im Testlauf mit den günstigen bunten Patchkäbelchen.......das ein oder andere Effektgerät fliegt wieder raus, dafür kommt anderes neu rein. Die Midiarie mit FXL8 Pro und GLab4xLoop funktioniert schon perfekt. Wenn dann alle Effekte ihren Platz auf dem Board gefunden haben, kommen definitiv die Evidence Audio zum Einsatz. Nun stellt sich mir die Frage nach einer ebenso hochwertigen Verbindung zwischen Board und Amp! In meinem Fall: 4 x Klinke Klinke für Amp in, Send, Return und eins in Reserve für ein evtl. später zu realisierendes Stereo Setup. Zudem schalte ich meinen Amp per Midi über einen Mini Amp Gizmo, so das zusätzlich ein Midikabel vom Board zum Amp geht (Gizmo wird im Bereich des Amps installiert. Mir schwebt eine Art Multicore vor, so das wenn möglich nur eine Strippe verlegt werden muss. Die Enden auf der Ampseite müssen in unterschiedlichen Längen ausgeführt werden. Auf der Bordseite werde ich wahrscheinlich eine Patchbox von Amp/fx verwenden. Wäre schön, wenn du dazu ein paar Tips/Ideen mit uns teilen würdest :) Gruß aus Hamburg Thomas
British English, lol. That's English English, where the modern language originated. It's sold er less, pronounced. End of. In the same way aluminium doesn't have a silent I in it. Great cables, bit of time to assemble, the daddario system is quicker but, as you say...... If Daniel is using it, it's gonna be great
Yes, evidence is far superior. I've tried all of them. Lava tightrope look the same but believe me they suck. The evidence cable itself is far superior. I'm gonna try lava tightrope plugs on evidence monorail cable and if it works it will be a lot cheaper as evidence wants too much money for the sis plugs and they're about the same thing. The difference is in the cable, the monorail cable is far superior than the tightrope. I'll let you know if it works but the guy's at evidence won't like it if it does, Oh well. They told me it won't work but I'm gonna try it.

I enjoy your Gear demos and really appreciate the honest and strait forward approach as well as the goofy comments as well. "What she said" . . .

6:04 made me to subscribe immediately cause it's like my speech to fellow musicians about gear and stuff :D

+DerEchteBold Yep 'solder' with an l for sure. When our man said 'sodder', I was like..what? :-)
+DerEchteBold SoLder = right Sodder = wrong! Americans say it wrong!

uhm... I thought they were sodder/solder-LESS?!

I laugh so hard watching this! Awesome product review/tutorial dude!

Hey henning
did you notice any difference between evidence cables and the sommer silk with neutrik and hicon cables you used for your pedal boards ?
This is basically the same exact way you make coaxial cable too...FYI
What if you want a straight connector????
How do these compare in sound to the planet waves solderless?
Is there any way you can re-use these should you need to resize your cables?
Worth watching just for the tangent about your "God damn it." prayer rationalization.
I bought one of this kits, but the cable is black, is there any mayor difference with the cable other than the color?
Richard Musicman no
Hey man - So, are these Evidence SIS cables better than George L's?? Be brutally honest... Great review as usual... Cheers!
I really don’t know
Yes, evidence is the best, believe me I have been down that rabbit hole.
Are there Soldered patch cables available of the same size?
I mean, for 80€ it better come with it's own stripper to help you with the package.
And I'm not meaning a cable stripper.
British English, lol. That's English English, where the modern language originated. It's sold er less, pronounced. End of. In the same way aluminium doesn't have a silent I in it. Great cables, bit of time to assemble, the daddario system is quicker but, as you say...... If Daniel is using it, it's gonna be great
The God damn it was priceless haha
I
The tangent man….
Check George L, you don't need any tools at all :)
IF you say SoLder, DON'T say sodder! Arrggghhh!
The god damn it thing made me lose it. You're hilarious.
"sodder" is just the weird way that Americans say it. The rest of the English-speaking world says "solder"
Too bad your hands and the cable end were out of view for half the process
i prefer george ls cable
Evidence are way better, I 've tried them all and for the price I would use lava tightrope over George L's.
How do these differ from lava tightrope kit?
The Connection Is different and apparently sounds better... also, the guys from Lava were very impolite, so I decided against Lava.
+EytschPi42 LOL
Yes, evidence is far superior. I've tried all of them. Lava tightrope look the same but believe me they suck. The evidence cable itself is far superior. I'm gonna try lava tightrope plugs on evidence monorail cable and if it works it will be a lot cheaper as evidence wants too much money for the sis plugs and they're about the same thing.

... Any Way , Swearwords are part of the Language period !
