This XLR Patch Snake – 24 Send/8 Return is a long‑distance audio multicable used to move a large number of signals between the stage and a mixing position in big venues. It provides twenty‑four XLR sends, typically used for microphones and instruments going from the stage to a console, and eight XLR returns for monitor mixes, playback, or other signals sent back to the stage. The 200' length is well suited for large theaters, arenas, outdoor events, and festival setups where the audio control position is far from the performers. By combining many channels into one heavy‑duty cable, this snake keeps cable runs clean, reduces setup time, and simplifies troubleshooting.
