I'm about to punch my computer out of frustration here. why can't i find any information on which prong is the left and right signal on a neutrik 3.5mm female plug. i just need to know that its the same as the male jack plug, i.e. long side= right... short side= left...  middle (wire clench part)= ground. like when you open it up on the inside. do i connect long to long or long to short? i don't want to mix up the signals.

DIYing without a multimeter = NO

Admittedly, it's harder to test the female jack unless you have spare males around.
