* THIS IS THE DIY KIT VERSION * The Threetom Modular “Mixing Flask” is a utility mixer offering mix-bus limiting and a cornucopia of indicator lights integrated behind a unique chemical lab-inspired front panel. Mixing Flask was designed as a solution to three gripes with conventional utility mixers: Mixing too hot is too easy, leading to hard clipping on the mix-bus. And even when there’s an indicator light to warn you when this is happening, there are no features to actively prevent it. Utility mixers usually only offer unity gain, so when you have a weak input signal (like a MTM Radio Music), you’re out of luck They’re nauseatingly boring MIXING FLASK provides solutions to these annoyances in the following ways: I’ve implemented a soft-clipping limiting circuit on the mix-bus (inspired by DOPPIO). The highest setting prevents the mix-bus from hard clipping altogether in favor of warm saturation. All inputs have a gain of +6dB allowing you to better equalize between volumes while maintaining a hot mix-bus output The myriad of indicator lights and front-panel graphics make you feel like a mad scientist in your modular chemical lab. I bet you won’t find another utility mixer that makes mixing more exciting than Mixing Flask! Use cases: Mix oscillator waveforms without the risk of hard-clipping Mix CV signals while keeping an eye on what’s coming in and going out Give a gentle boost to weak input signals (e.g. from a sampler module) Have a utility mixer in your case that’s interesting to look at, and doesn’t bore you to death!
