But my very basic concept of how electric signals works makes me feel pretty confident this cable should be equally capable of taking the signal either direction.

I'd be using it in the opposite direction. My last worry is that the descriptions for cables with mono 1/4' male on one side and dual RCA male on the other side all talk about how this can take a signal FROM a 1/4' source TO a mixer with RCA inputs. If such an adapter exists, it's not too easy to find. I cannot seem to locate any kind of 'Y' adapter that takes two RCA audio connectors and turns it into one 1/4' connector.Īm I supposed to convert my mixer into two separate 1/4' connectors, and plug both into my interface?Įdit: when I expanded my search from adapters to cables, I found cables with mono 1/4' male on one side and dual RCA male on the other side, so it looks like I can run that cable from my mixer to the audio interface, rather than trying to use my standard RCA cables and plug them into any kind of dual RCA female to mono 1/4' male adapter. The problem is that I have two (white and red). Edit - if you are using external hardware to capture gameplay, I assume you’re grabbing the hdmi video and audio/chat streams. I googled RCA to 1/4' adapters and what I found looks like it'll take ONE of my RCA male connectors and convert it to a 1/4' male. USB on the XR 12 and 16 is for firmware upgrading only similar to the s/sd/dl 8/16/32.
