CablePortals has come straight from the 3D printer and is ready to bring some order to your modular synth.

Cables, whether patch or digital, can be a terrible nightmare if they’re not managed. Velcro straps are a solution. However, it gets tiring having to unwrap your straps to reroute your Eurorack patch cables. Use What You Need (UWYN) has designed an alternative that’ll remove the faff from cable management so that you can focus on the fun stuff.

Tidy Your Eurrack Patch Cables With CablePortals

CablePortals are a simple, cost-effective, and sturdy solution to your messy Eurorack patch cables. They’ll hold your cables in place while still allowing you to route patch cables around your modular synthesizer. No cable is too out of reach when CablePortals can gather cables from all directions. With a CablePortal you’ll no longer need to undo your velcro straps each time you want to reroute your cables. A CablePortal will do a far easier job of tidying your Eurorack cables because you can thread new cables through the device and not need to undo a single strap.

This is a simple yet pretty cool idea. You’ll no longer have patch cables here, there, and everywhere across your modular synthesizer. Instead, you can focus them in specific places and keep them out of your way. Now your cables can float above your rack! This provides plenty of conveniences for you to patch your modules with no mess.
