Very useful, high quality, low profile Y-split patch
Anonymous 28.01.2016
I was after a low profile stereo Y-insert in order to take a single stereo TRS output from a guitar pedal and feed it into L-R 2x mono inputs on another pedal.

This does the job exactly as intended, and the flat cable makes it low profile - both at plug for compactness and for cable management! I'm also able to fit two plugs next to each other (e.g. stereo outs on a TC Electronic pedal), which I wasn't able to do with pancake plugs due to their width.

Very pleased - and can also therefore recommend other EBS patch cables for their quality and low profile, not just this Y-insert.

NB - also works in reverse, ie. splitting a single stereo TRS output into 2x mono. Seems obvious, but I've seen similar questions elsewhere so thought I'd note it here!

Good choice
Theofanhs Siderhs 07.02.2022
The quality is not very good due to the thin cables, without it I stretch it a lot as if the cable was torn a bit ... of course it is one of the few options in the trade and nevertheless it does its job well, it helps me connect to my stereo pedals at trs inputs or vice versa

great stuff, the originals
Tom5055 26.05.2018
These are perfect for pedal board builders.
Save space
No noise
Good plugs
Very Flexible
Well made
Only con I can think of, is that these are not designed to plug/unplug all the time. I have used over 36 of these and the 10,18 , 28cm versions and THEY NEVER FAILED ME.

What i was searching for

It was the solution i was searching for for my flashback 2 delay pedal. I connected a harley benton tap switch with it and it works perfectly! Plus it is so long that i can place the tap tempo switch wherever i want on the pedalboard!

Quality cables from EBS
Nigel ST 21.10.2021
EBS is my favourite brand when it comes to flat cables. Does what it is designed for, I use this to utilise the stereo capability of my pedals to split signal.
4 star only, as I feel the cables could be a bit thicker to avoid breakage too soon, especially if one keeps reorganising his/her pedal orders frequently. Yes, I'm looking at you, who is reading this review :-)

Don't pull it out too much...
Matt.S 31.05.2021
It certainly does the job for me, though the cable is very thin and fragile. On mine the wires are starting to become exposed near the jack, I've been plugging and unplugging a bit. I guess these would be okay if you're going to just leave it plugged in semi-permanently.

A simple, quality cable from EBS
Leon Z. 01.10.2020
It does its job and does it well. The whole flat patch series from EBS has been pretty great and this is no exception. I use it for my keyboards - going from the left and right outputs into the stereo input of an effects unit. The additional labels 'tip' and 'ring' on the mono jacks are a welcome plus.

Using it with an MXR M-300 as a stereo breakout cable.
noumena 30.01.2018
Using this item with an MXR M-300 as a stereo breakout cable, sometimes going into another stereo effect unit, or after a Torpedo Live, going into an audio interface for stereo reverb. Works perfectly, super light on pedalboard real estate. Love the soft and flat cable, very easy to handle, much needed flexibility for crowded smaller pedalboards. Ordered two to have a backup, never needed the backup, no issues so far. Sound quality does not suffer from any noticeable degradation due to the cable, no detectable increase in noise either. Happy.

Good quality, great sound, minimal space taken
Tosk 08.01.2021
There don't seem to be a lot of options out there for this specific type of cable so I went with this one to be used with my MXR M300 Reverb pedal for return into stereo effects loop of the DSM & Humboldt Simplifier. As I use it on my pedalboard, it is great that it takes up minimal space between pedals.

One small advice for noobs like myself - the two ends don't have LEFT and RIGHT labels, but TIP and RING. "R" (RING) is for the RIGHT side ;)
