Tangible Waves - XMIX

Tangible Waves - XMIX

  • $39.00


XMIX offers 4 mixers and 2 attenuators in a 1U package, ideal for small systems but also useful for larger systems where users are wanting attenuators, and to to combine CVs etc.

One 3 channel mixer has level controls, the others are passive mixers but two of the mixers can combine up to 8 signals (some with attenuation).

Module power consumption: 5 mA


Inputs

(Top left)


  • A 1, 2, 3 - The 3 inputs for mixer A, their level can be individually controlled using the knobs below.
  • B 1, 2, 3, 4 - The 4 inputs for mixer B, their level must be controlled earlier in the signal chain. The B mixer is meant for CVs only, and is ideal for that purpose.

(Center right)


  • C In (x8) - the left side 4 inputs are full volume/level, the right side 4 inputs are 1/3 volume/level; other than this the respective levels must be controlled at the source.
  • D In (x8) - the left side 4 inputs are full volume/level, the right side 4 inputs are 1/3 volume/level; other than this the respective levels must be controlled at the source.

( Bottom right) - Each column is the same, so there are 2 separate attentuators


  • 1.00, 0.8, ... 0.05 (x7) - The inputs for the Attentuator from no effect (1.0) to almost silent/stopped (5% of the input volume/signal). The bottom socket is the output. Do try using more than one input at once...

Outputs

(Top right)


  • OUT A (x2) - The combined signals from inputs A1, A2 and A3, their level controlled by the knobs below.
  • OUT B (x2) - The combined signals from inputs B1 to B4 inclusive.
  • OUT C (x2) - The combined signals from all the C inputs.
  • OUT D (x2) - The combined signals from all the D inputs.

(Bottom right)

Each column is a separate attenuator, and are identical.


  • Out - The output from any of the 7 inputs used in the column above, their level depending on which input(s) are used.

Controls

  • A1 (knob) - controls the level of input A1 in the A outputs.
  • A2 (knob) - controls the level of input A2 in the A outputs.
  • A3 (knob) - controls the level of input A3 in the A outputs.

  • Audio/DC (switch) - there are 3 of these, Mixer A's is at the bottom of the module, Mixers C & Ds' are in their respective sections. This switch optimises the circuit for use with either audio (rotates around 2.5V) or CVs (0-5 volts); this is generally to get the best audio quality but you may prefer the switch in the "wrong" position sometimes!
