Doepfer A-138a Vintage Edition

As a mixer it works a charm, signal quality is more than sufficient for most uses - gets used in every patch without fail. A key feature that it seems most don't realise is there - channel 1 gives a constant cv 0-5v when nothing is plugged in, so can be used to offest cvs that are being mixed in channels 2-4. Most people I've spoken to don't seem to realise that feature is there - neither did I till I read the manual (read it out of curiosity I should add, other than this feature the module is entirely self explanatory).

Great quality build as always and a beautiful new panel design as part of Doepfer's 'Vintage' series.

Pots are quite stiff which can be difficult if you want to quickly change a setting but this is to be expected with all of Doepfer's modules.

I use this as a final mixer before output for mixing audio as I found the 138b tended to distort at higher settings.
