A "Universal" Patch Bay Designed to Structure Your Cabling
The Behringer
ULTRAPATCH PRO PX3000 fits the logic of installations that need to remain clear, quick to reconfigure, and easy to troubleshoot. Rather than letting connections pile up behind devices (audio interfaces, preamps, compressors, EQs, multi-effects, monitors), it centralizes your inputs and outputs in one place. The result: less cable clutter, cleaner configuration changes, and better readability during soundchecks or recording sessions.
Who Is It For and What Are Its Uses?
This patch bay is ideal if you want to
streamline patching in a home studio, project studio, or live system with multiple sources and processors. It suits musicians and sound engineers looking to save time between takes, as well as technicians needing a
central routing point to isolate faults, test signals, or reconfigure a chain (for example: microphone to preamp, then conversion, then external processing, then return).
Routing Modes and Connectivity: Flexibility at the Heart of the PX3000
The PX3000 offers
balanced 6.3 mm TRS jack connections on all points, a practical choice for quickly interfacing studio and stage gear. Routing is managed channel by channel with three modes, allowing you to switch from "fixed" to "modular" wiring without rewiring the entire rack.
3 Modes per Channel to Adapt to Your Workflow
Normal: perfect for a standard chain (e.g., interface output to processor input) while retaining patch intervention capability.
Semi-normal: useful for duplicating a signal or inserting processing without breaking certain connections.
Parallel: suited for distributions and quick reassignments when you want points available without normalization.
