Looks really great!

Is L inputs normalled to the corresponding R inputs, if you have, say, two stereo signals and one mono signal?

Answering myself: yes it seems to be the case.

New questions:

1) If I chain 3 of these what will be available at the outputs of first, middle and last module in chain?

2) I already have two intellijel mixups, are mixups and 3xstereo mixer electrically compatible?

1) (1), (1+2), ((1+2)+3)
2) both have different sockets, but custom cable may help to connect them together. I do not have mixup to check myself.

If you do use it to drive phones, DC coupling wouldn't be a good thing.

What would be the reason to want a DC coupled stereo mixer? Sounds to me this is intended strictly for audio signals... :confused:

DC coupling path was needed for laser show equipment.

You mention MSRP: 100 USD or 88 Euro but the price advertised in the link is £165?

Question about this mixer - and your mixers in general...

Is there any gain on these? So is the 10 position unity or is it some positive gain?

Is the headphone output level attenuated compared to the line?

Just wondering if it'll allow me to mix external line and internal rack level signals and still get a decent signal into cans.

There is unity gain. Though can do a custom version with some more gain.
L&R output has the same level as ordinary L and R outs. It can drive most of the headphones, but without a dedicated phones level knob it is a tricky task. Because different headphones models have drastically different sensitivity. So this L&R output is just a bonus, which can not be suited for all the possible cans.

I'd like to know more about a custom version with gain. How much gain and how would I go about getting one? thanks

Any feedback from owners of this module?
I'm interested in buying one to mix my clouds and rings and maybe a three sisters outputs in stereo.
Thanks! :sb:

I am about to get 3 x stereo mixer and out module.

1. Is cable supplied to chain those 2 modules? If not, what kind of cable should I get and where?

2. If I chain them, can I internally send the output of 3 x stereo to out module?

Thanks in advance.
