Hi guys!
I am currently studying a BA (Hons) in Music Production, and I have decided to build a new stage box to go on stage, to route microphones cables and power supplies from the stage to the original inlets underneath the stage.
I would like to use a 19-pin Socapex cable to make the multicore, but here comes the predicament.
Microphone cables are designed with a +/- shielded by a ground cable on the inside. As I am not an electrician, I would like to ask opinions, and/or facts, on whether or not I could shield all 8 +/- terminals with a braided copper sleeve, and use it as a common ground?
As far as I am aware, when the microphones reach the mixing desks they all share an common internal ground within the desk, so my theory is to reduce pin soldering, while maintaining a suitable noise cancellation shield.
For any other information, please don't hesitate to ask! Thanks in advance for your generous responses!
