[sdiy] Synsonic drums/beginner ribbon cabling

so i've got another very beginner question about this.  one of the
"companies" who does 606 mods uses a ribbon cable to go to an external box.
is using ribbon cables as simple as "these are a bunch of wires that are all
glued together"?  can i route anything over a ribbon cable, simply by
connecting to the connector pins on both end jacks?  

apologies if this is really stupid...
