TRS splitter

[fig]

I've a TRS insert jack on my mixer (TIP=send, RING=return,SLEEVE=Mother Earth). Say I wanted to split that TRS into two TS jacks. I could use this couldn't I?

Thanks for your time.

Yeah, you'd need to cut a trace and jump a ring to a tip though.

EDIT: Well, you could get away without the jumper since TS already shorts the would-be ring to tip.

Outstanding! Thanks. I was going to wrap electrical tape around two TS and one TRS and solder them together.

You could just get a TRS insert cable too

Most off-the-shelf varieties are mega bulky. Definitely a good route if you’ve got two-conductor cabling on hand.

My wife says they cannot possibly exist, because I have 3 of every cable ever made. Don't tell her I ordered one...I'm just impatient

That's true! Some I looked at were akin to high-tension cable

I'll work up a new version that splits TRS into two TS.

Did you hear that jacks? This nice man just saved you from becoming a twisted sculpture.

You need to drop the mic or something.....day-um!

I mean it's nothing super innovative and can be easily done (cheaper?) with cables, but personally I like having these little mini boxes that I can use with standard cables instead of needing anything special.

Oh yeah, then you could combine two TS to one TRS!

Can I buy it right now though?

I have both and prefer a splitter box.

I even built one into one of the many 1590G boxes I bought on sale … twitch twitch.

This EBS cable was the best solution I was able to find when I needed a TRS > TS + TS splitter, but the lack of length options can be a hassle. I like the breakout box option because it allows for custom cable lengths.

I have two 3 foot hosa TRS breakout cables on my board. I love the pcb mini box especially since I have so much under board space.

I recall years ago needing something of this sort. Can't recall what it was for.

I have a Seymour Duncan Vapor Trail delay with a trs wet insert (Seymour’s verbiage) to put another pedal on the repeats. That was my reason.

Not familiar with that one, I built a bunch of switching devices for buddies on another forum, I'm pretty sure it was an amp or modeler he needed the tip and ring to split to different jacks, can't remember why or what the switch arrangement was.
