Distortion/Preamp/EQ

A small and affordable mixer was always part of the electronic musicians setup.
Most of the times electronic musicians were using small and affordable mixers mostly
because they needed just a few channels, it had to be portable and relatively cheap.
In the last four decades there were tons of small and affordable mixers designed,
built and sold by various manufacturers but only a few became classics and long time
favourites for their sound in the electronic musician community.

This mixer is based on a product of a famous japanese guitar pedal maker and was used in
the late seventies and in the eighties by many electronic musicians (like Tangerine Dream
and others). It was a six channel stereo mixer with tone control on each channel.
A compact and sturdy little workhorse.

Many years we saw people asking for modules that replicates the sounds of channel strips
from these small mixers. Ourselves being users of these mixers we thought it would be a
great idea to offer to the modular community the three classic sounds.
So we started breadboarding the circuits and tried to identify where the specific sound
comes from and how to reproduce this in the most convenient way. After a while we
identified which were the relevant aspects and made the prototypes.
Some more technical tests followed by listening tests and now we have three
eurorack modules, each one replicating the audio qualities of the vintage classics.
