The 15' Kramer Electronics XLR 3-Male to XLR 3-Female Quad Style Cable is designed for microphone or line level audio interconnections. The cable uses four cores of copper, wound in two parallel pairs, to reduce the amount of electromagnetically induced noise caused by environmental factors such as AC transformers and florescent light ballasts from interfering with the audio signal.

The quad-core design can reduce induction levels by up to 90% when compared to a regular two-pair balanced microphone cable. Additionally, the cable features no-shrink, back hand-soldered XLR connectors, XLPE insulation, and utilizes a large number of thin bare copper wire strands to improve cable flexibility.

Q: 1. I'd like to use the 9V battery powered Rode Videomic (VIDEOMIC-R) to connect with a Zoom PodTrak P4. Will a standard VXLR converter work with that, or do I need this VXLR+ for it? Thanks!

A: With 9V battery installed, the standard VXLR converter will work.

Q: 2. Can I use this on my sinhieser xwd wireless lav to connect to my c100 mark 2 with the top handle attacged

A: Hello Ben. The VXLR Plus is a 3.5mm TRS Female to XLR Male adapter and converts phantom power of P48 down to plug in power (2-5v). If that's what you need to do and you have the proper connections then, yes, it should work. If you don't need power then the Rode VXLR would work just as well.

Q: 3. Can this convert unbalanced TRS to balanced XLR?

A: This adapter will not balance the microphone signal. You can use it to connect stereo 3.5mm wired microphones to XLR inputs. This version does have a transformer balanced output: https://bhpho.to/2WQbqxK

Q: 4. Does this work with the Deity D3 pro microphone ?

A: No. Because the D3 is self powered you can use the regular VXLR https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/387850-REG/Rode_VXLR_VXLR_Mono_Mini_Jack.html

Q: 5. I have a pair of rode videomicros (requires plugin power) and a pair of wireless lavaliers. I will be using them interchangeably depending on the project. I want to get 2 of this item because the videomicro requires power but I need to know if it will still pass the signal without phantom power because the lavaliers don't need plugin power?

A: Yes, this will pass audio without power.

Q: 6. Would it work for SmartLav+ to Zoom H6 XLR inputs?

A: Yes it will but you will need to get an adapter for your SmartLav as the connector on the SmartLav is a TRRS. In order for you to use the XLR Power Converter you will need an adapter to change the lav connector from TRRS to TRS. This is the B&H part number for the adapter B&H#ROSC3. Once your TRRS becomes a TRS them you can use the XLR power converter with the H6.

Q: 7. Is this adapter fully compatible with Sennheiser ME2 lapel mics?

A: Yes, it works with the ME2. The VXLR-Plus is the perfect alternative to going wireless. So I nstead of connecting the ME2 to the G3 wireless transmitter, simply connect your ME2 (or most other 3.5mm lapels) to the Rode VXLR-Plus and you have a hard-wired connection. Just make sure that the device you are connecting the VXLR-Plus to (i.e. your camera or recorder), has 48 volt phantom power enabled and you should be good to go.

Q: 8. Can I use this to connect my RodeMicGo to my Sony Fs7?

A: Yes, you can use the VXLR+ which is designed for use with microphones that require plug-in power.

Q: 9. If I plug a stereo mic to the VXLR+, does it mix both channels into one mono? Or this just uses one of both stereo channels?

A: When using the Rode VXLR+ 3.5mm TRS Female to XLR Male Adapter with Phantom Power Converter with a stereo microphone, the output will be summed to dual mono. Please note that most microphones with a 3.5mm TRS connector provide dual mono output signal and not true stereo output. An actual stereo microphone will have two mic elements instead of one.

Q: 10. If I want to connect my Røde videomicro to a recorder or mixer with an XLR input should I use this and switch on phantom power or will a dummy 3.5mm to XLR suffice without phantom power?

A: The VideoMicro does require plugin power. So yes, you will use the VXLR Plus to convert Phantom to Plugin.
