PROS
- • Precise summing with minimal drift due to Doepfer's quality components
- • Controller input allows for dynamic CV modulation and expression
- • Compact 6HP footprint maximizes patching density in tight systems
- • Buffered outputs prevent signal degradation and load issues.
CONS
- • Limited to four CV inputs, restricting complex signal routing
- • Power draw, while modest, adds up in larger modular systems
- • Lack of attenuators per input necessitates external attenuation solutions.
