ALM Busy Circuits Jumble Henge 16 Input Stereo Spectral Mixer Eurorack Module
16 INPUT STEREO SPECTRAL MIXER
The Jumble Henge is a 16 input stereo spectral mixer with a unique patch-based mixing interface in a compact space. Each input has a carefully tuned resonant analog filter and a unique fixed pan value, providing each sound its own space within the mix. There is a Mix control to adjust the depth of the filtering and a clean external stereo input for chaining with another mixer or extra sound source. Jumble Henge is a space efficient solution for creating rich stereo mixes from a number of both mono and stereo sources.
INPUTS:
Vertical and horizontal patch position determines a source’s spectral and stereo placement in the mix respectively. Aside from centred inputs, every input sits in its own unique pan position, helping to keep a separation between sounds but building a complete stereo image when combined. The centre right inputs of the top two rows are normalised to the centre left inputs. – i.e if just a left input is patched it will be effectively panned center. Towards the highs the panning becomes wider – as the human ear better pinpoints direction at higher frequencies, whereas the lows remain more centred for a tighter, more focuséd sound.
MIX CONTROL:
Mix control for the overall depth of the filters applied to the inputs. Note: a slight volume
increase occurs near the centre of the dial.
EXTERNAL INPUT:
An additional clean stereo input pair for chaining with another mixer or additional source. Right input normalised to left input to accomodate mono sources.
OUTPUTS:
Stereo mix output, the sum of all 16 inputs.
Jumble Henge was designed in collaboration with Worng Electronics and is based on the ‘SoundStage’.
Features
- 16 total inputs, 14 with stereo and spectral placement, additional clean stereo input and stereo LR mix output.
- Intuitive ‘patch-based’ mixing with a unique stereo and spectral position for each input.
- Per input resonant analog filters carefully tuned to accentuate lows, low mids, high mids, and highs, giving each sound a unique space in the frequency spectrum.
- Per input fixed pan position with increasing width towards the top end of the frequency spectrum and tighter more centred lows.
- Equal-power panning for consistency in perceived level across inputs.
- Mix control allows depth of entire mix’s filtering to be adjusted.
- Built with audiophile Caps (COG/NPO) and high quality modern OPA audio op amps.
- Skiff friendly with reverse power protection.
- Made in England (home of henges)
