[sdiy] Where to get cable and wire by the meter?

[cheater00 cheater00]

Thanks! I've found it at Mouser btw. It's called FFC Jumper Cable and
it's offered by Molex (model # 25001) and TE (various model numbers).
They offer that in cut sizes. Go to Mouser and search for FFC Jumper
Cable, then narrow down to 2.54mm pitch. They even have the right pin
numbers for the tb-303 ribbon cable (for the digital / switch / led
daugher board). I'm very happy today. Mouser has everything. But I
wouldn't have been able to find this stuff if I hadn't gone to Arrow
first to check if they have it. They did, and then I took the
description and searched Mouser. Hope this helps anyone who has to
repair their Roland TB-303 ribbon cable.
