Ustka

A 4 HP passive expander for the Ostrawa mixing console: the four stereo channels' signals, taken after each channel's VCA and before they are mixed, out on eight jacks, left and right per channel. Made for recording stems or sources into a computer audio interface or a multitrack recorder before Ostrawa mixes them down. Connected to Ostrawa by a short ribbon cable, it needs no power. By default each output gives a Eurorack level (up to +20 dBu); a jumper per output brings it down to line level (+4 dBu).

Key features

• Eight direct outputs: Ostrawa's channels 1 to 4 after their VCAs, left and right
• Passive, joined to Ostrawa by a ribbon cable, no power needed
• Per output, an internal jumper: modular level (+20 dBu) or line level (+4 dBu)
