This Is A Test- Mixtur IV eurorack module prototype - passive intermodulation mixer

video upload by Mountainking Electronics

"This is the Mixtur IV eurorack module prototype. This is the fourth design in my Mixtur series. The modules in this series all share commons traits, mainly that they all allow the music engineer to take various audio and cv signals and combine them through intermodulation (with various characteristics of each signal altering various characteristics of the other signals in ways that are often difficult to predict) and that they are all (so far) passive designs.

The name of this series, as well as some of inspiration for it's designs, come from Karlheinz Stockhausen's music and musical ideology, but the main vision for these modules is to allow the music engineer to create new sounds from old sounds and complex motion by combining simple, even static, signals.

The circuit designs come from visual thoughts, images, that are then translated into electronic components and then arranged using symmetry, taking two mirror images and combining them. These circuits are then prototyped without any breadboard experimentation and so their outcome/functionality is always, to some degree, unpredictable, allowing the designer to experience some of the "unknown-ness" of the modules that the users of the modules experience.
