BLACK NOISE MIXER4 User manual

Thank you for purchasing Mixer 4 V2 module.
MIXER 4 V2 is our updated version of our MIXER 4.
MIXER 4 aim to be a useful and straightforward mixer with extra functionalities.
Most of the mixer have either linear or logarithmic curve response. linear curve is more suitable for CV signals and logarithmic is
designed to process audio signal.
One of the downside of this configuration is that you need lots of mixer to be shure to always have the right mixer available.
MIXER 4 try to answer this issue allowing to set on the fly to curve of each channel individually.
Our udpate version feature the curve selector directly on the frontplate allowing for easy settings of the curve of each channel.
Mixer 4 aim to make mixing easier and more precise but also to reduce the HP's dedicate to mixing. Less boring modules like
mixer mean more space and money for fun modules !
Thank you

Curve selector
The curve selector allow you to set the curve response of the attenuator on each channel individually.
Unlike the previous version of MIXER 4, the curve selector is now accessible in the front side of the panel and switch can
be set using the tip of a jack cable.
Each attenuator can be set to linear or logarithmic. The logarithmic curve mimic the decibel curve so it is more suitable
for audio signal. Whereas the linear cuve is more suitable for CV signals. Of course you can experiement different curve
settings for both audio and CV signals.

Linear Due to is linear
shape, linear curve is
more indicated to CV
signal.
The logarithmic curve
mimic the decibel
