It's apparently called Neutrik NP3RCS (a picture can be seen here: http://www.redco.com/shopexd.asp?id=218) But I just played with it again for the first time in years and figured out it was my fault all along. When I plugged in the headphones I felt a snap eventually. When I plugged in my cable I didn't feel that, instead I noticed that I could move it in and out a fair bit. Well, turns out I simply never had plugged it in all the way... All this time I thought it doesn't fit and is thus totally broken, but while it's probably not a great cable (one of the first things I soldered) it works well enough. Sorry for the fuss, thanks for making me try the cable again. Over are the days when I had to use soundfonts for recording :) Philipp _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-user
