Never play the guessing game with cables again. Featuring a simple 5-way switch to test every pin, even with mismatched connectors, the battery-powered MTEST-1 is an essential tool to have in your bag for every gig. You can even manually test continuity between any two points with the included probes. Equipped with the most commonly used connector types including TRS, TS, XLR, RCA, Speakon, 3.5mm TRS, MIDI, and Banana jacks.
Always Be Prepared
Whether you have a few or a mountain of cables, it pays to know which ones are good and which ones need to be tossed into the not so good pile. The MTEST-1 is an incredibly handy tool that can weed out the cables that may have seen too much action. Have confidence in your cables.
I/O Connect All Your Favorites
Male and female connectors for all the most commonly used types.
Test Any Combo of Connectors
XLR to TRS? 1/8" to RCA? No problem. The MTEST-1 intelligently knows what you're plugging in and matches pins accordingly.
Flexible Signal Probes
Don't see the connector you need? Just plug in the included probes and you can test continuity on virtually any cable or non-active circuit.
Easy Visual Feedback
Bright and easy-to-read LED readout tells you exactly which pins are working properly.
Portable Battery Powered
When you have some testing to do on the fly, you don't have time for an AC adapter. Just pop in a 9v battery and the MTEST-1 is good to go.
