The Mutable Instruments Shades (2020) is an essential tool for any modular synthesizer enthusiast looking to add versatile CV and audio mixing capabilities to their setup. This three-channel attenuator, inverter, and mixer module is designed with precision to offer nuanced control over your sound. Whether you're balancing audio levels or shaping control voltages, Shades provides you with the flexibility to shape your sound with precision.

Each of the three channels can be used independently as a unipolar or bipolar attenuator, or combined to create a mix of signals. This makes it an ideal choice for those looking to either modulate parameters with CV or create complex audio textures. The module's intuitive layout ensures that you can easily adjust levels, and its high-quality components mean your signals remain clear and noise-free.

Shades also features a convenient cascading design, allowing you to use it as a mixer without any patch cables. This makes it a perfect fit for minimal setups or for those who need to get creative with limited space. Whether you are sculpting subtle modulations or crafting intricate soundscapes, the Mutable Instruments Shades (2020) is a reliable and versatile addition to your modular rig.

Key Features:

• Three channels of attenuation, inversion, and mixing
• Unipolar and bipolar operation for versatile signal control
• High-quality components for clear, noise-free performance
• Cascading design for easy mixing without patch cables
• Suitable for both CV and audio signal processing
