Attenuator Options

2002-02-18 by mate_stubb

I use the Oakley MultiMix set up as a triple reversible attenuator / 
mixer. Go here for details:

What does one do for additional attenuation in the MOTM world? Most 
modules seem to have at least one input with no control and none (I 
think) have output controls. I prefer the convention with no output 
level controls and all input level controls (except v/8va inputs). I 
understand that this is a trade off between circuit functionality, 
panel real estate and module conventions - but, if this is truly a 
"modular" system - where is the attenuator module? There needs to be 
an alternative to burning a mixer (or half a mixer) to control an 
input. Also, is there a down side to passive attenuation? (no pun 
intended)

Tomorrow's question: where's the damn inverter? ;-)
