Has anybody tried THESE: http://www.dv247.com/invt/46882/No reason they wouldn't work with 'vibes. They look like they'd save a hell of a lot of spagetti around the back of the mixer! Looks like you could get a pair of cables for less that £50... Also available (and a little cheaper) are THESE: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Upgraded-Intercon ... 240%3A1318Except these don't have a built in bypass, so you'd still need the y-splitter... Might invest in some of those Traktor cables myself...

Hmm, don't see why those cables would be worth their money, i just leave mixvibes (with the Y-cables) hooked up to my mixer when i go to shows, easy as pie, when you arrive, you just connect the two turntables to the female cinch cables and the grounds to your soundcard and you're set to go... and also, if you want to save yourself a lot of spaghetti around the back of your mixer, why not use some rubber bands or some ducktape? they do look quite allright, but don't really think they're worth that much..

Cool - report back when you've got the prices sorted... (I priced up getting these made in the UK - it ended up coming in at about £80 for 2 sets...)

i just had stronger versions of the Y-cables made, with the female cinch gold plated, i bought 4 of these, ended up at 20 euro, with the male cinch also gold plated it would've been almost 40

they're much better than the standard cables you got with the old mixvibes DVS pack, if you are unable to find a shop that makes custom cables, i'd advise you to order Y-cables at the thomann site, they're pretty good too... the standard cables are fine, but it's nice to be on the safe side... + audio quality of the cables is better (these are the ones on the thomann site, a bit more than what i paid for the custom ones, but these are great too..) http://www.thomann.de/be/cordial_cfy_03_ecc.htm
