Mutable Instruments Links User Manual

Mutable Instruments | Links

Links requires a -12V / +12V power supply (2x5 pin connector). The ribbon cable connector must be
aligned so that the red stripe of the ribbon cable (-12V) is on the same side of the module’s power header
as the “Red stripe” marking on the board. The module draws 15mA from both the +12V and -12V supply
rails.

This device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following
two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must
accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired
operation.

This device meets the requirements of the following standards: EN55032, EN55103-2,
EN61000-3-2, EN61000-3-3, EN62311.

This section of the module is a buffered multiple. The signal patched to the IN input is duplicated, without
voltage drop, to each of the three OUT outputs.

This section can be used to send the note CV from a keyboard, sequencer or MIDI interface to several

VCOs; but it can also distribute an audio signal or modulation to several modules.

This section acts as a precision adder/mixer and as a multiple. The two signals patched in the IN inputs
are added, and the result is made available on each of the two OUT outputs.

It is of course possible to use this section as a 1:2 multiple - when only one of the IN inputs is left
unpatched.

Because this section uses a precision adder circuit, it is possible to use it to transpose a note CV: for
example, patch the CV output of a sequencer to the first input, and the CV output of a keyboard to the
second input. Patch the output(s) to (a) VCO(s). With this patch, the sequence is transposed by the
keyboard.

Audio or modulation signals can also be mixed and/or multed by this section.

This section acts as an averager. The three signals sent to each of the IN inputs are mixed together, with a
gain of 1⁄3 applied to the mix. It is particularly useful for mixing audio signals without causing clipping.

This product is covered by Mutable Instruments’ warranty, for one year following the date of manufacture.
This warranty covers any defect in the manufacturing of this product. This warranty does not cover any
damage or malfunction caused by incorrect use - such as, but not limited to, power cables connected
backwards, excessive voltage levels, or exposure to extreme temperature or moisture levels.

The warranty covers replacement or repair, as decided by Mutable Instruments. Please contact our
customer service ([e-mail]) for a return authorization before sending the
module. The cost of sending a module back for servicing is paid for by the customer.

Mutable Instruments encourages modding and hacking, but we will not service modified units or provide
any assistance in the realization of mods.
