THANK YOU FOR PURCHASING THE ERICA SYNTHS MATRIX MIXER!
As Eurorack users may know, it can be challenging to change a patch radically during a performance, therefore diverse
performances require large systems or they end up being extremely experimental. But what if you could repatch your
system with the push of a single button? The Erica Synths Matrix Mixer is a 16 – input, 16 - output desktop patch matrix – it
can route and mix signals with high precision, create buffered multiples and random patches. It can also interface external
instruments with your Eurorack system, and – it’s not limited to Eurorack! You can use the Matrix Mixer with semi-modular
synthesizers, as well as through adapter cards with the EMS Synthi and Buchla Music Easel. Thanks to simple patch changes
via panel buttons or MIDI program change messages, the Matrix Mixer will be particularly useful in performances that
combine Eurorack and other performance instruments, such as drums, guitars, wind instruments, etc. Make your modular
performance stand out and enjoy the Matrix Mixer!
