I have decided to renew all my audio and DMX cables.
The idea is to have all mains cable in black , all audio in red and DMX in dark blue.
question is do Van Damme make coloured cable and if so where could I buy some pre made ones (Neutrek connectors).
For starters I would need.

Male XLR to phono 1.5m X 4
Male XLR to Female XLR 2m X 4
Phono to mono 1/4" jack 1.5m X 4
1/4" Jack to Jack 1.5m X 4

All Red cable

Why go for the red cables, All I do is put a strip of yellow insulation tape around the ends of my audio leads, blue for the dmx, easier and neater IMO.

I have no tape round my audio leads, and different colours of tape around my DMX leads denoting length - ie blue 1m, red 1.5m, green 3m, yellow 5m, white 10m.

Failing being able to get the right colour cables, why not buy decent electrical tape, and coulor code them that way. May work out a bit cheaper if Van Damme can do then (im not sure BTH) but want the earth. :)

Note to self - Must type faster :D
