birdsnest - mixing/distribution bus

mixing
Studio-quality, high headroom internal mixer for Modular gain-levels on a PCB with 4 auxiliary buses and up to 4 Inputs per aux-bus!
Left/Right Summing, 2 global Mono Summing channels plus internal aux-bus and Sum-Channel gain trimming to taste.

the perfect rack - uncluttered
Passive, slim, budget-friendly, multi-purpose i/o modules (2/3/4 HP - 10 Pin headers) allowing for short cable lengths, short cable runs, speedy installation and internal mixing - giving you the freedom, space and vision to focus on what’s truly important - the signal flow!
Grab the signal anywhere, mix clean, output wherever you desire!

powerful distribution
2 x 8 passive distribution i/o channels spread across 4 identical sections (multiples).

modular heartbeat / infinite permutation
The birdsnest mixing/distribution bus is an infinitely* stackable design - you connect as many in a chain as you desire. But best of all three 8-channel DIP switch sections on each PCB allow you to select which signals will be passed on to the next link in the chain. You can create separate sub-sections, large summing sections across any rack-length or/and mix any possible combination of the above to taste!

small and beautiful
205mm x 95mm (42HP) - the perfect dimensions for any system with infinite* expandability.
No permanent fixing necessary - the bottom side is a continuous, smooth surface - attach anywhere!

3rd party support
Clean, super-simple and super-safe pin-out will give each manufacturer the perfect opportunity to shine and focus on what they do best, be it analog engineering, DSP wizardry or professional audio applications - we’ll give you a 1000 hour head-start.
All it takes is a 10-pin header and a good idea, it really is that simple.

*infinite expandability is a mathematically simulated model, real-life applications might see signal degradation depending on quality of connection hardware, external
