Something to think about would be a large DIY
snake. Sometimes I've seen guys use snakes, where its 8 channels on one end, and every 3-4 feet or so, there would be a female
XLR. They just run them near the front of the
stage, and they're done. Some go from the
snake to a small 10' cable then the mic, but you can make it so that the
xlr "drops" have they're own 10'. It may be a
bit frustrating to coil. but I would rather wrap 1 fat 100' cable, than 24 50' cables. Which brings me to question 2. why why why do you just have 50 ' cables. Save your self some money, cut them in half, and re-end them.
Good luck!
Dont forget, more wireless mics, more missed cues. I've worked with 5 wl mics at a time, and singers would set them down, and get them mixed up, and then people would get mad at me!
