As someone who is developing Eurorack modules, I always found it tedious to visualize signals coming from the modular synth on my oscilloscope. The reason for this is that there’s really aren’t too many convenient adapters for this. Most homebrew solutions to this problem suffer from two problems: a) They’re usually mechanically unstable, and b) most of the times I would find myself needing to redistribute the visualized signal to somewhere else, which requires extra cables and a mult. To alleviate these issues I’ve created the Wiretap, a 2-way mult that you can directly mount onto a BNC connector.

This is a fully assembled Wiretap adapter, no assembly required, just plug and play!

Description

When I visualize the signals from my modular synthesizer on the oscilloscope, I often found a need to redistribute them (either to somewhere else in the patch or to my mixer). Of course this is a problem you can solve with some extra cables and mults. However, when you’re working in a small lab space such as mine, the ensuing cable spaghetti tends to make things confusing after a while. For this reason I decided to create the THREETOM Wiretap, a 2-way mult that you can directly mount onto a BNC connector. This way, I have my connections directly at the oscilloscope, making it much easier to keep track of my test patch.

Some notes on strain relief

The Wiretap is designed to handle the weight of regular modular cables hanging down from them. The Wiretaps are strain-relieved in three ways:

  1. The 3.5mm jacks have two mechanical pins that stick through the PCB, this redirects any force/moment put on the jacks to the PCB instead of to the solder joints
  2. If the SMA to BNC adaptor is not overtightened, the Wiretap can freely rotate around it’s axis, so unwanted forces are converted into rotation rather than moment.
  3. The BNC connector has a spring that prevents force/moment put on the Wiretap from being transferred to the BNC connector on your test-equipment

Now, all of this being said : As with any other type of connector/adaptor I don’t recommend any excessive force or moment/lever to be applied to the Wiretap.

These times are estimates and are not guaranteed. Delivery may occasionally take a little longer due to customs processing, local conditions, or carrier delays.

Dispatch times

Orders placed before 15:00 CET (Central European Time) on a working day are normally dispatched the same day. Orders placed after 15:00 CET, or on weekends and public holidays, will be dispatched on the next working day.

If you have an urgent order, please email us at info@signalsounds.eu before placing your order and we'll do our best to accommodate you.

Pre-orders

If a product is listed as a pre-order, it means we've ordered it from the supplier but it's not physically in stock yet. The product listing will include an estimated shipping date based on the best information we have from the supplier, but do bear in mind this is subject to change and is not a guaranteed date.

If you place an order containing a mixture of in-stock and pre-order items, we'll normally hold off on shipping anything until the pre-order item(s) have arrived, rather than splitting it into multiple shipments. If you need the in-stock items sooner, we'd recommend placing separate orders. As always, please get in touch at info@signalsounds.eu if you have questions.
