One thing to note: there are many different options available. I’m writing this article to save your band time and money and not to make the same mistakes we made upon purchase our first one. When we purchased our splitter snake, we went through two poorly-made ( though abused on stage) ones before finding one that lasted the test of time. Go with rack-mounted, as this protects the snake from being stepped on while on stage. If you’re looking for an affordable splitter snake, check out this one from Seismic. You need a way to split the audio feed from all the microphones on stage to go your monitor board and to go to the front of house mixing board. This piece of audio gear is required for using a digital monitor board at live gigs (unless you bring your own FOH console).

The Stage Box is rack mountable for convenience and ease of transport. Each stage box is well labeled and constructed from heavy duty steel. You can plug an XLR or a 1/4" in to the box end of the snake. The cable ends on the fantails are all male XLR, while the stage box consists of all female XLR and 1/4" combo jacks. These splitter cables are straight send snakes and do not have any returns. These splitter snake cables do not have splitter transformers, ground-lift switches, or multi-pin disconnects. They each have a stage box and two hardwired short trunks with fantails. These snakes are your basic hardwired Y splitters.
