I've got one for you -

always find a way to support your cables. I never imagined just how

heavy all that crap gets until I had to tear it all out and put in
storage. I noticed that the wire ties that kept everything (almost)
organized were about to crack or had already cracked under the weight of
the miles of wire. (I had a 48 channel board with anal retentive
connections :-). When I rewire a new studio I plan on actually making
wood supports to lay the wiring on from the console to the patch bays
and equipment. The weight must have some negative affect on something.
Connectors are obviously strained and who knows what another year of
hanging would have done -



Yes, its called a wire loom, not unlike the one's used for car motor sparkplug
wires. Also you can use a snake and rout thing's so they don't cross high volt
AC lines.
