Although the $8 price is higher than some of the hundreds of other patch cables that I have, having 12 of these in the 3 different lengths (4 per that is) is a godsend when patching keyboard voltages and it makes patching devices triggered by a common source easier to trace.

The quality of the cables is quite nice - they are quite flexible and the jacks stack very nicely without too much force.

Just using these guys when patching in my Pressure Points to trigger a patch makes it more direct - when I do use a mult (like on the bottom of a 300 series module, I now have 4 outputs from the mult - often, I would have to use two mults just to have four gates or four CVs....

Of course, that's just opinion - I could be wrong...8*)
