The patch bays in the recording studios are a combination of Miniature Bantam and B-Gauge, dependent upon what the connections are being used for.

In general, the larger B-Gauge connections are used for microphone tie lines and pathways that may carry 48V phantom power. Connections between outboard devices within a studio are carried on Miniature Bantam, which prevents accidental cross-connection and increases the number of devices that can be connected to a single patch bay.
