Q: Are this cables balanced or unbalanced?

They are balanced cables. In fact the reason I purchased them was to replace unbalanced cables with them. They are well made and perfect for recording and sound reinforcement.

Q: Can i use this to connect my outboard compressor (xlr) to my interface (1/4" trs)?

When making any kind of adaptive connection there are a number of issues and concerns. Any connection using XLR requires phantom power for the XLR device, you need to have that available at some point that will satisfy the XLR device. Phantom power will not usually be transferred through all adapters. It has been my experience that phantom power is not always where you want it to be when you need it. Another issue is pin-out; you would expect that there would be some standardization with this stuff, but not the case sadly. What I have done in the past is just try it, I've never had any damage caused by this trial and error method, but still, be aware that it could happen. Consider calling Sweetwater and speaking to one of their experts, then buy the adapter from THEM if they think it will work. May the Force be with you! :) 7/21/20

Q: Guitar = boss looper pedal = mixer board. cable going from looper to mixer. will this work and achieve a balanced l/r sound? help

The short answer is no. For a basic understanding; a "balanced" cable does NOT carry two separate "hot" signals, it carries a hot and a cold of the SAME signal, with the cold side being 180° out of phase. This is why balanced cables are preferred for distance runs or recording, the hot/cold cancels outside noise interference. A balanced or XLR cable does not carry two separate hot signals or channels.

Q: Hows the soldering job on these cables? Do you happen to know how these compete with other brands like Pro Co and Mogami?

The soldering job is every bit as good as the other brands. These cables are a fantastic value for the price and the only difference between these cables and ridiculously-priced cables like Mogami is thicker shielding and sometimes over-marketed "braiding." I would use the most expensive cables only if I had a real professional recording studio and even then it would only be for instruments and microphones.
