Thanks to a flexible I/O semi-normalization pattern, you can use the SC in other ways than stereo. You can patch a mono signal and record it in stereo straight after the VCA to track the voltage-controlled panning or blend two mono sources into one, and more.

The Channel module features two amplitude controls: an input VCA and a volume fader. The input VCA is voltage-controllable and, if the signal has enough amplitude, it can overdrive the circuit with a creamy, fat saturation. A peak LED tells when the signal is clipping, but don’t fear cranking it up!

An output allows you to take the channel output for parallel processing or multitrack recording. You can choose to work pre-fader (straight after the input VCA) or post-fader (with the main fader affecting the signal’s amplitude). The outputs are semi-normaled: use just the left output for a mono sum, and both channels for a stereo signal.

The mute button allows you to remove a channel from the group sum with a click. The mute function works over the input VCA, so it will also mute the effect sends.

The yellow and green knobs are two effect sends levels. They can work pre- or post-fader, and they can be voltage-controlled for expressive and creative results.

The Pan knob defines the stereo placement of the sound, which you can voltage-control as well. The Pan/Crossfade switch lets you use the SC as a dual mono mixer, blending two mono signals into a mono output. When in Crossfade mode, the pan pot controls the balance of the two inputs.

The mute button allows you to remove a channel from the group sum with a click. The mute function works over the input VCA, so it will also mute the effect sends.

The Solo-In-Place switch lets you prepare a “scene” of channels to be isolated from the other ones, and then recall it through the Safe Solo switch on the Group module. It can be seen as a mute group function that allows you to mute all the channels outside the solo scene with a click.

Push the PFL button and rotate the PFL fader on the master module to preview a channel: it’s convenient for tuning your oscillators or checking if everything is ok before bringing whatever sound source into the mix.
