CP3 Type Analog Transistor Mixer with EQ and MUTE
Knead is a transistor based 3-channel analog mixer module with integrated EQ and Mute switch. The mixer is especially designed to knead single audio waveforms, but will of course also handle more complex audio sources.
The circuit adds some nice harmonic distortion to the signal with heavy clipping, if the inputs are turned to the maximum.
As the mix is bussed passively turning one input up may result in a reduction of the other inputs. Therefore the output cannot exceed any other input´s level providing auto-leveling on high volumes.
There are three potentiometers to adjust the LEVEL for each signal. Additionally you may change the frequencies of each channel by turning the EQ knobs. On top you will find MUTE switches for easy sound comparison or live mixing. LEDs will indicate if a signal is passed through. The LED´s brightness can be set with trim potentiometers for each channel. The MIX VOL knob controls the volume of the summed signal being supplied at the OUT Jack.
