Midi patch cables (right angled)

hotpickups

Can anyone here make MIDI patch cables (2) for me. I would like the Switchcraft metal right-angle plugs with rotating connector sleeves with about 1ft cable but I will have to check to confirm actual length etc. How much would that be too?

Like these for example:-

I just don't want to have to buy from USA when I'm sure someone in the UK sells this stuff cheaply but I can't seem to track them down 

Thanks

I've got two i imported from Disaster amps... Cost a fortune but they are superbly made...

They are exactly the same as the ones advertised.

Interested ?

Harder to find than you would imagine. I gave up trying to get right angle/straight midi patch cables.

I couldn't find anything shorter than a meter then an old school friend came through for me. If he hadn't I would have been looking at imports or home made as well.

I so agree KarlosSantos. UK is really lacking sometimes it seems for us

I would not consider $25 plus shipping a "fortune" if, as said they are a well made product?

That looks to be more rugged than your average cable so that has to be bought in. I shall go and try to find a price for the special plugs but I can't see those coming in under a fiver apeice?

DINs are fiddly and time consuming to build, especially the R/A ones I have come across so all up, if I wanted 20quid a lead I would be working for well under minimum wage PH!

If Rob could sell 100 units a month, maybe a different ball game.

I made mine. Picked the plugs up from Maplins at about a quid a go, some old mic cable, a bit of fannying around and got it done. Stressful and a pain in the arse but they work a treat and are the length I want them. Worth having a go yourself.

Did I read this wrong but is Wasmeister offering to sell his patch cables? Haven't heard from you since

I bought them @trolley

I'm going to be needing some of these shortly - TheGigRig G2 -> Timefactor -> H9

I guess I can make my own, so which are the best plugs?

@trolley - I could possibly make you one up too, but it wouldn't be all that cheap - the plugs themselves seem to be £10-£12 each.

I have a couple of leads with moulded R/A plugs - I'll probably just buy a plug & solder it myself
