Hi everyone,

I know this is a very simple question, so hopefully someone can answer
it for me real quick (I looked through the forums but couldn't find
this info anywhere, probably because it's very basic).

I'm upgrading from a simple A/D-D/A box to a mixer combined with the M-
audio Delta 1010 for multitracking. Our tracking room will be ~30
feet from the control room on the other end of the house, so I was
about to buy some 100 ft. balanced mic cables to give us plenty of
room for positioning mics. But now, I'm considering getting a 50 ft.
snake and some shorter mic cables to chain to the snake for each room.

My question is whether or not the chaining of the mic cables reduces
sound quality at all, or if this is just standard practice in most
studios.

Thanks very much.
