RME ADI-2 PRO FS balanced adapters?

[reasons]

Need to find a balanced adapter that goes to 4.4 instead of xlr

Can anyone point me in the direction of this cable?

I don't think such a cable exists. You might need to get two: TRS to XLR-4 pole, then XLR 4-pole to Pentaconn.

The question is, can it be made custom? It seems as if corpse cable has a custom section where they could make it. Problem is they want $200 which is insane for a cable that should cost $50 max

Agree. The main issue is the Pentaconn. Find someone that wants to solder it manually...mucho crap...this has clearly been designed for machine work. A workaround might be to buy a cheap adapter cable with a Pentaconn female to whatever, cut the cable, and solder on the XLR or two TRS...

Any chance this would work with two 1/4 adapters (https://www.ebay.com/itm/2-x-3-5mm-...2349624.m46890.l49286&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0)

Looks like Amazon sells it as well Dual 3.5 to 4.4

Nice find! And correct connection. I would cut off the small TRS and solder on big ones, but using two TRS big to small adapters would work as well.

I think they sell it for $150: https://corpsecable.com/products/co...-cardas-audio-usa?_pos=1&_sid=a24d09116&_ss=r

Still painful to drop that much on an adapter, but I tossed my cheap adapter from the brand you posted below and went with Corpse. Didn’t connect properly and was crackling when the cable was moved. But that was a way cheaper balanced to single-ended adapter. In your case I would probably take the risk with the $20 one. Corpse cables and adapters are at least well made.

If you want the perfect cable for your ADI-2 Pro in Balanced Phones Mode, I recommend this cable. Excellent value for money.

If you need a quality custom cable like this I would go to Hart Audio, especially if you are located in the States.
