Is this technically a humbuster cabel?

No, that is a TRS splitter cable.

For humbuster, the sleeve/ground of the TS end needs to be wired to the ring & sleeve/ground of the TRS cable.

Some interfaces (RME Babyface Pro FS) have the ring of their 1/4” line inputs shunted to ground, so in that case I can get the advantages of humbuster with a standard TRS cable.

"Is this technically a humbuster cabel?"

Only if it meets the Humbuster wiring description in the manual.

It's a unique circuit so most cable companies don't make them. They're easy to make if you have minimal soldering skills, otherwise BTPA sells very nicely-made cables, along with other cables useful to using Fractals, like high quality USB, excellent guitar cables, wiring looms for the FX3, etc.
