Non-Latching or No Latch Female XLR Connector

My gaer has the non-latching or no latch female XLR connector installed as input. This is the first time I have a machine with such connector. Usually it would have a "PUSH" botton at the 12 oclock position for you to push in to release the cable.

Now without such "PUSH" botton, how can I change the installed cable if I want to try different cable later?

Hope someone had experiences with non-latching female XLR connector can provide the proper way to release connected cable.

Thanks in advance.

You simply pull the cable end out of the connector. If the chassis XLR has no latch, the friction of the plug holds it in place(just like an RCA).

Thanks Rodman99999.

I tried that way but the cable won't come out. Maybe it has latch but no release "PUSH" button.

What is the brand/model of your gear/amp?

My Rowland M925 amps use non-latching XLR IC input connectors. Tugging/pulling on the connector barrel of the IC is sufficient to release the connection. However, your connector may be of a different type... it might require you to push in gently and twist the IC barrel equally gently anti-clockwise to induce a release.

Do not force it.

You might need to consult the user manual of your device(s), or contact the manufacturer directly.
