ART XLR patch bay

works great..... BUT, I wish that the labeling on back was written on the other side of the output so when you reverse it and line up all of your inputs and outputs numerically, the output number won't be upside down.

Patch bay

This piece of gear was perfect, it solved all my connection issues. I've been purchasing from Sweetwater Music for 10 years.
I am always amazed at the quality, customer service and dependability. Of all their products, thank You again Sweetwater!

So much easier

Our sound board connections were a mess before we got these patch bays. They make connections so much easier and the sound board is organized to the max now. I love being able to reverse the rack ears so accommodate inputs and outputs.

Good Functional Patchbay

Plugs well and was not an issue to mount in rack. It'd be nice if the labeling would work in such a way that no matter how it was mounted the id's would work in the correct left to right order. Not a deal breaker for me. Appears solid and looks to last for along time.

Simple but awesome

These work great for studio and live settings. 16 ins, 16 outs and able to run phantom power. I have several of these and they work great. These are simple pass through units but work well and the price is great. There's more expensive out there but I swear by these. Give them a try!!
