Active Slider Bank (command one)

Command one: Front view
Command one: Front view

This utility module gives you a wide range of variable and adjustable control voltages from -10V to +10V. This only depends on the knob and slider setting and patching within itself. If used with external input it can attenuate and offset the incoming signal. I use this module for steering modules which lacks of attenuator at the inputs or in greater patches for applying control voltages to far away modules. It is quite comfortable to have the controls in the first row of your case and not somewhere in the messy patch hardly in reach for your hands

Specs and features

  • Variable and adjustable control voltages from -10V to +10V
  • Six independent active attenuator with external signals
  • Positive and negative offset for external signals
  • Runs on +/-12V and +/-15V
  • Power consumption below 20mA each rail

When using different cases it is quite inconvenient to run lots off long patch cables between them. With this pair of modules you can reduce the amount of patch cables used between cases. This modules allows to use ribbon cables between cases. The connections are active buffered with OpAmps, so they are unidirectional. To connect cases in both directions (send and return) you need two pairs of this modules.

Specs and features

  • Eight active unidirectional connections
  • Runs on +/-12V and +/-15V
  • Power consumption below 20mA each rail
