Key Features

For Studio or Stage
8 Inputs and 4 Outputs, 4 XLR Returns
Belden NEC CM-Rated Multipair Cable
Multiple Layers of Heat Shrink

This Whirlwind Medusa Standard Series 16 Channel (4x XLR Return) Snake is a snake cable with a heavy-duty steel stagebox at one end and a fanout at the other end. The cabling consists of heavy-duty, flexible Belden CM rated multipair cable. Each pair contains two twisted 24GA 7x32 polyethylene insulated conductors with 100% foil shield and 24GA drain wire.

The fanouts feature genuine Whirlwind connectors. Mic channels are numbered and return connectors are lettered by engraving the metal barrel with large, easy to read graphics.

Snake cables make it possible to combine several balanced (microphone) cables into one smaller diameter multipair cable, making setup and teardown much faster and easier, with less tangling and clutter than would otherwise be the case.

It's worth every penny you will pay for it. Used in stadium shows, TV shows, etc.

Like all snakes look out for the bite!

This snake is great, have used it 23 times since I purchased it. Everytime it makes getting channels figured out quickly for a Mariachi Group and small Blues Band. This is highly recommended for everyone who loves a Gig to be easy in and easy out, yet still remain professional as possible. Thank you for your craftsmanship!

question

We at our church are having trouble with our sound system. We have a Xenyx 1222FX Mixer and a Whirlwind Medusa 16x XLR send and 4x XLR return stage box. We have had some individuals mess with the set-up and do not have instructions to get it back functioning. What are the orange high-lighted inputs A, B, C, and D. What should be plugged into one or all of them? The octopus harness seems easy enough to figure out. If there is a user's manual for the Whirlwind, I sure would like to have one. Thanks, Clint
