Octatrack, analog4, digitak, analog heat cable

hello, I am going to use Octa Track as a mixer.

with A4, Digitakt, Analog Heat, I am considering which cable to buy.

trs or ts cable? and How many should I buy in total?

My thoughts:
I’d suggest 2 x 2 TRS cables and have A4 as one stereo in and the Heat, with the Digitakt run through it, on the other stereo in.

In any case, I’d make sure to use TRS to have a balanced system. Good luck!

Edit: as mentioned below, at least 6 cables (I’d still say 3 x 2 TRS pairs).

Check the specs on the various machines. Heat and Octatrack (mk2) are balanced (TRS). I can’t recall if Digiakt is balanced or not. Ultimately, you don’t need balanced cables. To simplify things, you should start with TS cables. You should get enough to allow you to connect all your boxes at once. In this setup, I think you’d need 6 at minimum (using headphone output of OT or Heat), or 8 cables if you’re going to run the Heat into an interface / mixer / monitor speakers.
