Re: Model 9 Mixer/Attenuator and Model 29 Dynamic Mult Released

2007-09-27 by (i think you can figure that out)

Whoops!  well, there goes that explanation...

No can do.  The Model 29 is a completely passive circuit - no
electricity.  The attenuators are as the should be for the cleanest
result - no power, they get their ground reference from the patchcords
connected to them. But since you've got an M14, again...you're doing
this function already.

One thing to keep in mind is outside of the M24, almost every VC input
on Plan B modules have bi-directional attenuators, so you're pretty
covered here if you stick to the 'family'.
