I have a USB microphone and the Type-A connector broke. Can I replace that adapter by splicing on a new one?
I'm essentially trying to avoid having to buy a whole new mirophone. It seems to me that since you can replace the adapters on Cat-5 cables, etc that you should be able to do this with a USB cable too for cheap.
The adapter is a type A adapter. On the other end is the microphone. There are no connectors inbetween.

I've never looked inside a USB cable, but if you can match up the wires, it should work. Just like you can match up the wires in a separated telephone cable to make it work again, if it's ripped out of the wall or cut - but nobody ever does that in the movies, do they?

Ya, you can but disconnect the microphone and the USB first. After replacing it, then you reconnect the microphone and the USB.
