They sold quicker than expected, so we have another batch already in progress and they should be ready in about 4 weeks. You could also try wigglehunt to see if any retailers have stock.
Would this be as simple as connecting the x/y jp2 connector to the chain in on the stereo mix 1u? Would the x and y then be L and R respectively?
Could you also connect the x/y in a way to add 2 separate stereo inputs, x and y, to the stereo mix 1u?
Your first scenario would work. If you connect the middle header JP2, X would act as the Left and Y would act as the right, then you could connect that to the Stereo Mixer Chain In.
The top and bottom headers would let you use X and Y as stereo inputs, but Stereo Line In only has one Chain In and one Chain Out. Therefore you could only connect one or the other unless you used X as a stereo input and Y as a stereo output. Does that make sense?
If the output on the back panel is connected to the 3-pin header jack on the back panel, is that connection broken when something is connected to the 3.5mm output jacks on the front of the stereo mix module?
I would like to use it (optionally) as either a second output pair or as a sub mix on my way to my Stereo Line Out 1U. I realize that it will be unbalanced and unattenuated when I run directly to the 3-pin header jack.
It works the same as the Mixup, so connections to the MIX OUT L&R do not impact the Chain Out. Great for setting up additional effects chains…
Can anyone tell me what that chain-in / chain-out pinout is on the back of the module?
L / GND / R?
L / R / GND
etc?
Is it the same as the Mixup? I saw the same question on that thread.
Yes it is the same as the Mixup.
Hi… I have a question about the stereo mixer. I have a 1u headphone out (v2) in my diy case. If I connect the stereo mixer via the 3 pin cable the back, do the inputs on the headphone still work? IE, do I now have 3 stereo in channels that I can mix together, or are they deactivated all together and the stereo mixer module is the only inputs?
The front panel inputs break the normalling from the rear header, so they would not be mixed together. So if they were connected you could either have the output of Stereo Mixer 1U, or you could have whatever you patch to the front.
right, but not both?
No, not both.

Does anyone know when these will be in stock again? (in Europe) Is it far away or soon-ish?
I feel like I’m missing something obvious but can someone explain this “using a rear connector, you can chain multiple Stereo Mixer 1U’s together into a hidden 3rd stereo channel without using up channels on the front panel.” section of the product description?
Hi there, The rear chain connectors are 3-pin format. The IN accepts a signal and includes it in the mix OUT. “Hidden” because it does not use up any jacks on the front of either module, and the module accepting the IN signal does not have a gain control for the included channel. The intellijel manuals are exceptionally good, btw
Hi all, just received a 1U Stereo Mixer and I’m seeing some behaviour I don’t quite understand. This could well be a lack of knowledge on my part regarding the module itself, or even a misunderstanding about how stereo vs mono signals work, so bear with me
I have the module connected directly to a pair of 1/4" outputs on my 104hp palette case via the chain out. I understand from the manual that for each pair of stereo inputs, the L jack is normalled to the R. No problem there. My confusion is that I assumed I would be able to have two different mono signals plugged into a single stereo pair and they would be (unity gain?) summed together, i.e. one oscillator into 1L and a different oscillator into 1R.
This does work, but only if I have the signal going into 1R loosely patched. If I fully insert a cable into 1R I only hear the signal coming into 1L. Is this expected behaviour?
Hear out of which output channel?
FWIW, loosely plugging into a jack with a normal can result in shorting the two signals together - just like if you plugged the output of two modules into the same input using a stacking cable. Depending on the output circuitry of the modules involved, this will work as a mixer to varying levels of effectiveness.
Doing this will result in one oscillator in the left channel of the output, and one channel in the right.
Thanks for the reply @al2o3cr. If I’m understanding your reply then it appears something is wrong with the module. I’ll rephrase the issue in case my original post was unclear:
Assume I have the Stereo Mixer attached to 1/4" audio jacks 1 and 2 on the palette via the chain output
The behaviour I was curious about is what happens when I connect two different audio sources to 1L and 1R. I expected to hear the two sources summed to mono out of audio jack 1, but that’s not the case. The audio signal going into 1R doesn’t appear at either of the 1/4" outputs.
I believe you’re expecting the reverse of the actual normal behavior: plugging in a source to In L while leaving In R unpatched results in your source normalled to both Mix L and Mix R. As soon as you patch a source into In R, the normal is broken and your new In R source is fed directly to Mix R.
Thanks @timsss! I did figure it out eventually thanks to some clarification from Charlie at Intellijel.
