Patching in another mixer or voltage controlled amp (VCA)

“

(buzzing) - [Instructor] In this chapter, we're going to be talking about mixers, voltage-controlled amplifiers, and other modules that control the loudness or amplitude, or level of the signals going around in your system. You notice we've already been making great use out of our Happy Nerding three times MIA mixer, and our Intellijel micro VCA. I consider modules like this to be essential when you start expanding your system. But there's still quite a range available in these modules as well. For example, some are very, very clean in what they do, some purposely add distortion or other changes to the sound going through them. There's a few different ways you might be patching a mixer or a VCA into your system. For example, mixers might go in the middle of your patch or at the very end, right before you go to your outputs. A common use in the middle of the patch is to combine your different oscillators. Same setup, just using the two input mix on the Moog Mother-32 that we have here,…
