Aranea 5x5 Matrix Mixer

Ritual Electronics Aranea

The Aranea from Ritual Electronics is a flexible 5x5 matrix mixer with attenuverters and unique outputs making it the perfect tool for creative CV routing and audio experimentation. With customized, center-detented potentiometers you get zero pass-through when at the noon (detented) position, a 1.2x gain when moving clockwise, and a 1.2x gain with signal inversion when moving counter-clockwise. A dedicated AC/DC will filter out DC signals when AC is activated, making it more suitable for audio, while the DC mode passes through all signals making it suitable for control voltage. Each column has an independent output, but the inclusion of A+B and D+E summed outputs, along with two diagonal outputs really makes this module something special. The \ and / outputs are the diagonal ones which combine the signals and pots from A1 to E5 and E1 to A5 respectively. Grab the Ritual Electronics Aranea and unlock new creative pathways.
