Ghost Cable originated in 2015 when two professional mastering engineers, Giancarlo Camera and Robb Robinson, discovered an Italian made cable that effortlessly surpassed any other cable they had tried prior.
After rewiring their mastering rooms entirely with Ghost cable, they began sharing excess cable with engineers and producers from all over the world. The positive feedback they received along with demand for more cable has been overwhelming.
After 4 years and many thousands of mixes and masters done exclusively thru the original Ghost Cable, Giancarlo and Robb, with assistance from other mastering engineers, decided to revisit the original design in an attempt to further improve the transparency of sound, particularly in the low-mid frequency region.
A long R&D effort achieved the goal of retaining, yet improving upon the original sound of a cable that is now referred to as 'Ghost Beta'. The effortless transient response of the original Ghost Beta remains unaltered, but the low mid transient punch and weight has been improved towards greater source preservation.
In early 2022, with the confidence of Ghost Cable at an all time high, the team decided to offer the cable publicly in 3 initial variations: Analog, Digital and Instrument. An 8 channel analog multicore cable called 'Ghost Snake' along with a high power speaker cable called 'Ghost Speaker' have already passed prototyping and will soon be available.
What Makes Ghost Different
What sets Ghost Cable apart starts with the cable itself — an ultra-low capacitance design, manufactured to Ghost's exact specification and refined over years of real use in professional mastering rooms. Capacitance acts as a quiet filter on everything passing through a cable, rolling off high-frequency air and blunting transients before the signal ever reaches your converters or monitors. The Ghost geometry is built to minimize that loss, so what comes out stays faithful to what went in: open on top, quick on transients, and true to the low-mid weight that gives a recording its body.
The goal has never been to make your signal sound 'better.' It is to let it sound like itself. Ghost Cable is engineered for source preservation — carrying your sound from one point to the next with nothing standing in the way.
Built to Order
Every Ghost Cable is cut and built to order. Nothing is mass-produced or pulled from a shelf — when an order comes in, that exact cable is assembled to your specification: your length, your connectors, your configuration. Each one is measured, cut, soldered, and sleeved entirely by hand, then individually tested and inspected by our assembly techs in our Los Angeles shop before it ships. It is the same care and attention to detail whether the order is a single six-inch patch or a hundred-foot studio run.
We also modify existing cables. If you need a cable re-terminated, shortened, or reconfigured to fit a specific rig, send it our way and we can rework it. Whatever your signal chain requires, we can build it — or rebuild it — to spec.
