DIY 5 Pin Din Midi Cable I just successfully completed! It is the first midi cable I have tried myself. The wire is Mogami and the Rean connectors I got with it were from Parts Express online! Great deal and quality once again! Such a snug connection! It has 5 pins, but you only use the middle three so it is really only a 3 wire cable. The colors only need to match as both connectors are the same on each side. This is why newer cables use TRS Stereo plugs as well!

It was a little tricky because the ground shielding was too thick for the thin midi pins. I decided to split the thick wire into two strands and twirl one around the other and solder it. The first go was a fail because I jammed some heatshrinking that didn't fit and it broke a connection. I went back and solved that though and now the wire tested out great! Perfect length for my Midi Keyboard Controller!

PS- A little piece of electrical tape wedged between the pins was what I replaced the bulky heatshrink on one side with! Fun job! 😃

Im getting ready to make my first Midi Cable! 5 Pin Din, but it is pretty much just like the TRS version!

Bear w me! 😄 Working man's setup! I just came up with this as an impromptu rig to practice playing on the go for me! The delay and reverb and weird mod effects on here are allI liked too! Lets see how it works out!

I jus simplified my electric guitar practice setup! It gots all the colours Im lookin to explore while I am setting up this blacktop tele again! 😃 So stoked! The pedaltrain nano board is still intact and stored in it's travel bag! 😎

Ok, so recently I got out my old Technics SL-1200 MK2 I got when I first learned the turntables and mixing in Denton, TX! I got this one on the square for 200 bucks only the RCA connections were cut or no good. So I decided to learn to solder again with a Radio Shack 15W soldering iron, some good plyers, solder and a lot of burns! I got the connectors in Radio Shacks old bins of parts. They were decent, but my skills at soldering were subpar so it always cut out!

Now many years later I've come back to the guy and still using the original RCA I stripped it down and carefully soldered it like I do now! I was able to salvage the discontinued Radio Shack connectors too! 😃 I had no idea all the projects and training learning electronics it would lead to! (Including this page) To think I was inspired by a rave DJ movie at the time where he was drinkin and doin it himself between gigs! Also Radio Shack and their DIY ethos that they instilled in me young led to this!

Lastly, Im jus glad to get this old perfectly functioning MK2 purring again! Totally worth it! I hope to eventually replace the cable like I have done on others and also the Tone Arm lift and light I got the parts for! Other than that this Technics SL-1200 MK2 original from the 90s/early 2000's is Battle Ready! 👊🏽

Ok, I jumped on the band wagon this time for my bday! Jumped ahead a bit as I am still building a DIY Phase 45, but got to make sure I dont screw it up. This is a Custom MXR Phase 90 reissue! I tested it out and boy did it sound sweet! I jus gave her a schwang the other night and it sounded much more subtle and less Effected as the flangers and trem I got which is great! This one will match greatly w my boutique overdrives and custom Fuzz on my Tube Amp! Great purchase! 😃

Ok, jus finished this instrument cable upgrade and boy does it sound and work better! It was a looker, but it came with cheapo jacks that weren't performing well even brand new! It was cutting out and noisy. I installed, soldered and used heat shrink to make them really robust with Neutrik high quality jacks! That being said, I really love the fabric cover for the cable from GC! I had to use blk heat shrink as the red was too thick. This will work great on my electric guitar and lead synth! 😃
