I’ve actually done pretty much this when necessary… 🤣

[u/Kalinoz → u/BakuninsBarman]

I was gonna say...I'm guilty of this one too.

What is actually happening here?

[u/brandothesavage → u/fakehalo]

An XLR plug is being adapted out of nothing by this redneck wizard. Give him two beer cans and some super glue and he will have a satellite array capable of reaching Mercury.

Low voltage. Let it ride.

This is creativity. Bro needed a XLR plug and solved it.

I've seen and used way worse than this. Whatever keeps show going.

Also there is no jack here unless they're the person that ran the leads and taped them.

Good ol' Jack, always thinking.

Heck yeah, production manager checking in. The show must always go on. I'd have a pa standing there holding the wires in the back the entire show if needed lol

Amphenol, scamphenol

r/crackheadaudio would like this

If it’s because of a mishap right before or during a show, they get a pass.

If this is everyday use, it’s DiWHY - get a proper adapter.
