As mentioned last week, I've been trying out a beta version of myVolts' latest product; a five input passive mixer. I was so impressed with the product so far that I fired some questions to Caroline Swords, Director of Operations at the company, to get a bit of an insight into the product and what they were aiming for here. Caroline was kind enough to come back to me with some detailed answers, plus a first look at the version 2 of the mickXer.
MyVolts are no stranger to electronics for musicians, having previously worked on iterations of their Volca power splitters for powering more than one Volca at a time. As mentioned in other posts, I've had quite a lot of respect for this for my growing collection of Korg's grooveboxes and Kaoss pads, however the subject of how to mix the audio out of so many devices working at once created a new problems.
