6.4 Patchbay
A patchbay allows to patch the audio signals of most components in your studio from a central point and send
them to other units, which makes your entire cabling better structured and is indispensable for professional
work. If you want to use your studio as effectively as possible then it is preferable to use a complete patchbay
wiring scheme, but even less sophisticated patchbay solutions will benefit smaller studio configurations.
6.4.1 Patchbay configuration
The majority of commercially available patchbays include two rows with 24 phone jacks each in a 19" 1 U rack
panel. On the rear, either a corresponding number of phone jacks or contacts for soldering signal leads can be
found. Each group of four of these phone jacks forms one module. The configuration of some Patchbays can be
changed by inserting jumpers or turning individual modules.
With the help of our ULTRAPATCH PRO PX2000, an easy-to-use 24-patchbay offering phone jacks through-
out, you can easily understand the four different modes. With the ULTRAPATCH PRO you can select between
the four different operating modes simply by setting a switch on the upper panel (example: module 17):
