CAY 4

The CAY4 is a 40cm dual Full XLR to 3.5mm minijack cable especially designed to connect two XLR microphones to a camera (or any other device with a 3.5mm TRS connector) that only has a 3.5mm minijack connector. The signals coming from the microphones will be recorded on the left or the right stereo track depending on which XLR plug is connected.

Cay 4 specs

  • TWO FULL SIZE XLR(F) TO MINI JACK
  • 40 CM CABLE
  • NEUTRIK CONNECTORS

The setup example as shown below features the BlackMagic Design Pocket Cinema Camera, a professional cinema camera with built in 3.5mm TRS minijack audio input, and two RØDE NTG-4+’s, that can be connected via the Peppercable CAY4. The BlackMagic Design Pocket Cinema Camera is one of many camera’s that contains a 3.5mm audio jack but not an XLR connector to record audio from a external microphone.

With the dual XLR connectors, a stereo audio recording can be achieved, connecting the NTG-4+’s in an X/Y setup or a dual microphone setup for example. Bear in mind that, like the CAY 1, the CAY 4 does not deliver phantom power  so if there is a condensor microphone used, it needs to have an option to be powered by batteries. Dynamic microphones can be connected directly.
