bright, the signal is strongly overdriven. Judicious use of overdrive can really fatten up a sound. The
external audio input can accept a signal from instrument level to line level.
MIX-OUT LOOP: The jack on the back labeled “mix out/filter in” is an insert point between the Mixer
output and the filter input. Using a standard insert cable an effect such as a moogerfooger® MF-
102 Ring Modulator can be inserted to add effects to the oscillator, noise source, and external
audio in prior to the filter stage. The Mixer output signal send appears at the ring of the jack.
The return signal is applied to the tip of the jack. A cable fully plugged into the jack breaks the
connection between the mixer and the filter, and unless the Return signal is sent to the tip of the
jack, no signal will pass through to the filter. You can plug an instrument cable halfway into the jack
and connect the tip of the jack to the ring of the Mixer Out/Filter In jack. This allows the output of
the Mixer without breaking the connection to the Filter Input. The level settings in the mixer affect
the output level, so keep this in mind as you try different devices in this loop. This insert point is a
great spot to insert a distortion or waveshaping device, a phaser, ring modulator, or delay effects
(figure 17).
