ALM029 / Jumble Henge

TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS
Power +12V 70ma / -12V 70ma
Size 8HP
Depth 38mm
Module Installation

With your modular synth powered off connect the 10 pin end of the supplied standard eurorack power connector cable to the 10 pin power connector on the rear of the module.

The red stripe on the cable should be orientated to match the text ‘RED’ marked on the rear of the module near the power connector (this is -12V). Connect the other 16 pin end of the cable to your eurorack bus board (Refer to your bus board documentation for the correct orientation).

You are now safe to power up your modular synth. If the module fails to power up check you have the power cable correctly orientated and have carefully read this manual.

JUMBLE HENGE

The Jumble Henge is a 16 input stereo spectral mixer with a unique patch based mixing interface in a compact space. Each input has a carefully tuned resonant analog filter and a unique fixed pan value, providing each sound its own space within the mix. There is a Mix control to adjust the depth of the filtering and a clean external stereo input for chaining with another mixer or extra sound source. Jumble Henge is a space efficient solution for creating rich stereo mixes from a number of both mono and stereo sources.

INPUTS

Vertical and horizontal patch position determines a source’s spectral and stereo placement in the mix respectively.

Aside from centred inputs, every input sits in its own unique pan position, helping to keep a separation between sounds but building a complete stereo image when combined.

The centre right inputs of the top two rows are normalised to the centre left inputs. – i.e. if just a left input is patched it will be effectively panned center.

Towards the highs the panning becomes wider – as the human ear better pinpoints direction at higher frequencies, whereas the lows remain more centred for a tighter, more focused sound.

MIX CONTROL

Mix control for the overall depth of the filters applied to the inputs. Note: a slight volume increase occurs near the centre of the dial.

APPROX FREQUENCY RESPONSE

PANNING

Note that equal-power panning is used for consistency in perceived level across all inputs.

EXTERNAL INPUT

An additional clean stereo input pair for chaining with another mixer or additional source. Right input normalised to left input to accommodate mono sources.

OUTPUTS

Stereo mix output, the sum of all 16 inputs.
