MOTM

Check out the MOTM 910.  Unlike a Y-cable you can go from a 2-way mult to a 3-
way without repatching.<<

Just to inform you, I did an entire four and a half minute MOTM piece without 
using any MOTM multiple ever. Y-cables were used a few times, but those little 
Radio Shack one male to two female adapters were used all over the place. As 
one member simply put it, they turn one jack into two. You can daisy chain a 
singal to as many destinations as you want with them, just like Banana cables.  
This reduces cable count in your patch, and anything that gets any additional 
cables out of my way is a good thing.

otherwise useless Y-cables.<<

Not so, as shown in my above statement. Even Y-cables increase elegance. It's 
so much cleaner to use one cable with a Y slitter on the end then to run an 
unnecessary cable to the nearest multiple, then run two cables from there back 
to where you want to go. One cable with a Y connector replacing three cables is 
a cleaner more elegant solution. And if you decide the last minute you need to 
go to a third destination, just pop one of those earlier mentioned adapters 
under one of the Y connections and add another cable and you're done.
