| Dumbass question
OK, my soldering skills aren't terrible (I built 6 7th circle pres which all worked right out of the gate and have made tons of mic cables, snakes, etc), but I feel like I'm missing something. I have two XLR patchbays and no matter how carefully I solder and make sure everything is really well put together, inevitably, some of the connections come apart. What can I do to make it so these connections just don't come apart? Is there some trick I'm missing? The back of the patchbay is open and the cables do get moved around a lot.
I'm using guitar cables and mic cables I made in the early 90s that have never given me trouble, so I know it's not my basic soldering skills that are at fault.
TIA
