[SML] Testing integrity of mic cables....

[Jon Ares]

So, I know how to test for continuity.... and most XLR cable testers
just do that, but I've got a couple of cables that test "fine," but
sound nasty. After rotating out cables, I solved the problem, but I'm
curious how to test better.

The issue was sending a feed from our board to a video crew, and they
were taking our feed into a poopy little Beringer mixer, and I really
wanted to blame it on their mixer, but after rotating through cables,
the buzz mostly went away... so I have 2 suspect cables that test for
continuity just fine.
