1.5 ABOUT AUDIO CABLES
The connections between the MasterLink and your studio are your music’s lifeline. Use only high
quality, low-capacitance, shielded cables with a stranded (not solid) internal conductor and low-
resistance shield. Although quality cables cost more, they make a difference. When routing cables:
• Do not bundle audio cables with AC power cords.
• Avoid running audio cables near sources of electromagnetic interference such as transformers,
monitors, computers, etc.
• Do not place cables where they can be stepped on. Stepping on a cable may not cause
immediate damage, but it can compress the insulation between the center conductor and shield
(degrading performance) or reduce the cable’s reliability.
• Avoid twisting the cable or making sharp, right angle turns.
• Never unplug a cable by pulling on the wire itself. Always unplug by firmly grasping the
plug’s body, and pulling directly outward.
• Although Alesis does not endorse any specific product, chemicals such as Tweek and
Cramolin, when applied to electrical connectors, are claimed to improve the electrical contact
between connectors.
