Inflexibility. The equipment you are using must be compatible with XLR cable, which means the equipment must be a female port and the connector must be a male port.
On the other hand, TRS connections are easier to use than XLR because they don’t require any special tools to connect or disconnect them. Just plug them into your device! Of course, you would want to prevent as much external noise from completely ruining your audio recording, and that is why you should look for cables with excellent interference shielding.To help you filter out the plethora of cables flooding the market, take a look at things that should be on your mind when buying cables. Good impact absorption
TRS connectors are easy to use and don’t need any extra equipment or cables to connect them. On the contrary, XLR requires an adapter to convert them into a TRS connector and then an additional cable between the adapter and your speaker system. The bottom line is – XLR is fantastic for studio recording, and also works well for live performances. If superb sound quality is what you are after, XLR is your best bet. In addition, if you want to connect two speakers, then a TRS will be appropriate. However, if you’re going to hook one speaker and a microphone, an XLR connection would be more appropriate because it handles the extra phantom power from the microphone without damaging your audio device. Cables will likely be tripped over by or get tugged a lot of times, especially in small studio-type spaces, so you would want a cable with good impact absorption that can easily take these occasional tugs without being damaged. Interference shieldingLightning – Utilised exclusively by Apple products, Lightning is an 8-pin connector that carries a digital signal for power or data transfer. If you’ve owned an iPhone over the past 10 years, chances are you’ve come across this cable before to charge your device or connect it to a computer. A TRS cable is an audio cable used to attach audio devices to other devices such as sound cards or amplifiers. The name stands for “tip-ring-sleeve,” which refers to the distinct parts of the cable: the tip, the ring, and the innermost sleeve. An unbalanced audio cable comprises two main parts, a ground wire, and a signal. The former acts as the one who delivers audio frequencies, while the latter acts as a reference point and also serves as a shield from outside interferences. And while it does an excellent job of preventing slight hums from street lights and transformers, they also act as an antenna that, ironically, produces noise. The SC9 is a TRRS to TRRS cable designed to connect a wide range of audio devices. At 1.5 metres long, it is particularly suitable for connecting a smartphone to the RØDECaster Pro. SC10 – 3.5mm TRRS to TRRS Cable Second, you should consider how much space you have available for your cable. If you need longer cables than a TRS connection provides, then an XLR connection may be more suitable for you.
The SC22 is a 300mm USB-C to USB-C cable which is included with the AI-Micro. Similar to the SC16, it is suitable for connecting RØDE microphones and devices with a USB-C output to USB-C compatible devices such as smartphones or tablets. VC1 – 3.5mm TRS Extension Cable (3m)To help you decide if a TRS audio cable is right for you, let’s look into its strengths and weaknesses: Pros An XLR (eXternal Line Return) is a line-level cable used to connect audio equipment. It’s a three-pronged cable with two signal wires and one ground wire. The purpose of the ground wire is to prevent interference from electromagnetic fields, which can cause noise in audio equipment.
When people say “microphone cable”, they are most likely referring to XLR cable – the standard microphone connector used since the 1950s. XLR connectors transmit balanced mono audio and sometimes stereo signals. It is commonly used to send and receive audio signals between devices. It has a balanced connection that resists noise or any kind of interference. XLR can filter out noise for a more clean sound. It is also highly compatible with microphones. These make XLR cable an ideal choice for studio recording. Flexibility. It is easy to connect multiple short XLR cables to form a longer one. To daisy-chain XLR cables, you only need to plug the male connector into the female and continue this connection until you get the length that you need.The XLR connector is designed to send electrical signals from devices in the same direction. Audio industries and audio engineers often employ microphones to transmit audio signals that are electrical energy between devices. Mixing devices such as audio devices use a connector XLR to transmit signals. When performing on stage, it makes more sense to use TS cables as they are longer and easier to connect. Ideally, it should not be more than 20 feet long to avoid noise and any sound interference. For ordinary people like you and me, spotting differences between balanced and unbalanced cables might be confusing without using tons of technical jargon, but here is an overview of their differences.
