THINGS TO KNOW
What is 1U? 1U is a measurement of height in the 19” rackmount stan-
dard. Eurorack modules adhere to 3 rack units, or 3U. Mo-
saic tiles adhere to 1 rack unit in height, and require appro-
priate rails to mount in a rack or modular case.
What 1U
format are
Mosaic
modules?
We ship our modules with Intellijel 1U formatted front pan-
els. If you use the Pulp Logic format, don’t worry! You can
purchase Pulp Logic replacement front panels on our Re-
placement Panels page.

OVERVIEW
Description
Patch audio, pitch, and more with peace of mind using the Buffered Signal Multiplier. Due to its
intelligent normalization scheme, it can copy 2 inputs to 4 respective outputs, or 1 input to all eight
outputs, while maintaining integrity and consistency between the signals. The LEDs indicate level
and polarity of the incoming signal for easy identification.
• Buffered signal multiple
• Intelligent normalization scheme
• Configurable as 2x4 or 1x8
• Ideal for lossless splitting of audio and pitch signals
• LEDs indicated level and polarity of incoming signals
Tech Specs
• Width: 14HP
• 38mm
• Front Panel: Ships in Intellijel format. Pulp Logic replacement panels available here.
• Current Consumption: +12V = 16mA, -12V = 16mA
Installation
To install, locate space in your Eurorack case for your 1U module, and confirm the positive 12 volts
and negative 12 volts sides of the power distribution lines. Plug the connector into the power distri-
bution board of your case, keeping in mind that the red band corresponds to negative 12 volts. In
most systems, the negative 12 volt supply line is at the bottom. The power cable should be connect-
ed to the module with the red band facing the front of the module.

DETAILS
How It Works
Multipliers of all formats are used to copy a signal and send it out to different points in your system.
Some come in the form of a cable splitter, or a stackable patch cable, while others are rackable
modules.
There are two main types of modular synth multipliers: passive and buffered. In this case, the Buff-
ered Mult carries a buffered circuit that ensures complete accuracy when splitting voltage sensitive
signals (e.g. audio, pitch CV, etc.). Buffered multipliers are perfect for creating multi-timbral voices,
rerouting audio, and everything passive multipliers are capable of (sending out clock signals, en-
velopes, other modulation sources). Send your signals to the farthest ends of your system, and see
what new sounds await!

1. Signal LED
Visual indicator for the channel’s inputed signal.
2. Input
Input jacks for both channels 1 and 2. Channel 1 normals to channel 2 when no signal is present in
channel 2.
3. Outputs
Output jacks for channels 1 and 2. Top four jacks are for channel 1, and the bottom four jacks are
for channel 2. When no signal is present in channel 2, channel 1’s signal mults out to all output
jacks.
