"Linix is the successor to the now discontinued HexVCA module. It comprises six high quality 2164 based linear VCA circuits with CV attenuation and BIAS control for each channel.
The first five channels normal to a summing amp that feeds the input of sixth channel. This allows you to have voltage control of the master sum.Patching into an individual output channel breaks that channel from the master sum. If the direct output is used for each channel then the sixth channel becomes an additional independent VCA as well (Hex VCA). Each channel has an led to monitor incoming CV activity.

The SUM output has an additional set of leds to monitor the bipolar state of the final sum and a clip led to monitor the absolute max signal level.

There is a 12pin header on the back to connect the Linix channel direct outputs to the inputs of an Intellijel Mutamix or Mutagen module."

"The DMF-2 is a dual mode and dual slope filter and emulates the familiar low pass filter in 4 pole mode and expands sonic potential by adding a unique designed 6 pole low pass mode and quasi and pass mode.
Both filters (A and B) are identical and can be controlled separately and by master inputs for the cutoff (CM A+B). The audio outputs from both filters are combined (LPF A+B and BPF A+B) with dual resonance (peak and offers "formant" shaped sounds in low pass and band pass mode. Filters has an individual audio inputs and additionally combined input (AUDIO A+B).

The DMF-2 is characterized by a non-linear transfer function, so-called saturation mode, that is affected by the level strength of the incoming signals. The design quality of LPF's and new features makes the DMF-2 very flexible and results in qualities, such as:
*CUTOFF, Q-PEAK are voltage controlled
*4 and 6 poles low pass mode (24 dB/octave and 36 dB/octave)
*Qasi band pass mode (6dB/octave high pass on the low side and 24dB/octave

low pass on the high side)
*Saturable; from "warm" and "smooth" sound (at low to moderate level of

incoming signal) to heavy distorted "nasty" and "aggressive" (at high level of

incoming signals)
*Ideal as "effect filter"
*Formant mode (dual peak) with summed inputs and outputs
*Stereo effects
*Low noise"

Audio Damage Dub Jr. demo

Published on Sep 21, 2013 stretta·78 videos

"A real time demo attempting to show some of the range of the Dub Jr.

This patch looks more complicated than it actually is. Most of the patch is dormant. You're hearing the direct output of the Dub Jr.The source Ostinato is simply an oscillator modulated by a filter. The Dub Jr. is modulated by two identical sources consisting of an LFO into a S&H, which is triggered by a Trigger Riot.

I originally shot this directly framing the Dub Jr, but the video was nonsensical when I was directing my focus on the modulation sources."
