We have a variety of XLR cables at different lengths. In order to help new people know how long a cable is quickly and to keep similar lengths together while in storage, I started using a new method of labeling cables. I typed up the different lengths multiple times and printed them out. Then after cutting the paper labels appart I took about an inch of clear packing tape and wrapped it around both the label and the cable near the connector. This way it will stay for a long time while it is easy to remove if necesary.

Won't packing tape leave horrible residue?

just get some bright gaff tape or some other tough tape, and use a different color for each length. have like an inch of tape around the cable by the connector. like pink=5ft, orange=10ft and so forth...

the packing tape leaves no residue, and if it does its a lot less residue than gaff tape. And by typing out the length one doesn't have to remember a color code. But if one wanted a color code just use different colored paper.
