Ceres – High-Class Linear VCA & Mixer“You never have enough VCAs” — a phrase every modular user knows. Ceres takes this truth and turns it into a compact, versatile, and sonically pristine six-channel linear VCA and mixer, ready to slot into any system, large or small. At its heart is the legendary 3360 gain cell, renowned for its clean, precise performance and trusted for decades in high-end audio designs. Combined with a carefully engineered 4-layer PCB layout, Ceres delivers ultra-low noise and minimal CV bleed, ensuring every detail of your sound remains intact. The daisy-chained inputs make routing efficient and flexible, while the mixed output on channel six allows complex layering and waveform creation. Multiple CV signals can modulate a single source, with all outputs summed for rich, experimental textures.
