Not normally used on unmodified Eurorack,<ref group="note">[[Befaco]] synth modules have dual footprint for either 3.5 mm jack or banana.<!--http://www.befaco.org/en/sinte-modular/--></ref> banana jack socket are unshielded but CVs don't need shielding and because audio levels are usually high, this won't be a problem. When patching into external synths or other devices use a shielded cable with both ends of the shield connected to ground. Banana sockets are cheaper because they are mechanically simpler. They are also much more durable since there is less to go wrong. They are widely available and come in a range of colours. Banana plugs are stackable i.e. one can plug into the end of another. Most banana synths are designed with stackable plugs in mind, whereas most 1/4" and 3.5mm jack systems include [[multiple]]s.<ref>[http://www.muffwiggler.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=44407 Banana plugs vs. other plugs], Muff Wiggler forum, Oct 2011</ref><ref>[https://www.muffwiggler.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=42438
