Links Module User Manual Guide

This document summarizes the functions and specifications of the Links module by Mutable Instruments. It has three main sections - a 1:3 section that duplicates a signal to three outputs, a 2:2 section that adds two signals and outputs the result to two outputs and can be used for transposition, and a 3:1 section that averages three inputs and outputs the result. The module requires a -12V/+12V power supply and has a one year warranty that does not cover damage from misuse.

Links User manual

INSTALLATION
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.

1:3 SECTION
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.

2:2 SECTION

28/5/2020 Mutable Instruments | Links
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.

3:1 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.

WARRANTY
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
