Do you require assistance with your patchbay??

I think he helped me wire my studio patchbay.

I used blue painter's tape (and spreadsheets! 😁 ) to keep track of everything.

Craig,

How did you label the patchbay?

I am trying to get away from the cut away labels and I am thinking about purchasing Patchbay software.

I found the following:

PatchCAD 3

Aztec Patchbay Editor Pro

Not sure if I'm following...  I just used the designations from the front (A1 thru A24 and B1 thru B24) and wrote them on the blue tape...

Craig,

I mean, did you label it similar to the image  below with cut our names, (in this case pictures). or did you use a labeling software?

[craigb]

Ah...  No, I simply used the white tape that you typically find on mixing boards and wrote on it with a Sharpie.

I used a Brother Label Maker on the patch bay front.

On the cables themselves I did nothing. I only have (essentially) one of these:

This is the Patch-bay I am using, It's a Samson S Patch Plus.  I like it because the modes are on the front and I don't have to remove it or get behind the rack to change the mode.  I do however have and excel spreadsheet with it's connections and layout, but I am getting tired of looking at the spreadsheet to see  which connections go where.  I need to label this puppy.   The white spacing on the front is way too small too write the description of the equipment.

[craigb]

Heh, looks like you traded the ability to see what's connected with easy access to the modes!
