• This is the full HexMix system, which includes the HexMix module, the Hexpander module, and HexMix VCA module, for a total of 3 modules.
• This includes 12 Befaco Knurlies, 2 Befaco knurlie wrenches, power cables for the HexMix and HexMix VCA (the Hexpander does not need a power cable) and a connector cable for the Hexpander and HexMix VCA.
• Everything works well, EXCEPT the #2 Level potentiometer does not seem to work on the HexMix VCA. This isn't really an issue because you can control the volume for that 2nd channel on the HexMix module itself. I'm not entirely sure why it isn't working because I have reviewed my soldering work multiple times and I can't find any issues.
• Comes from a non-smoking household. This was a DIY build that I did myself. I have built many modules, including both through-hole and SMD soldering. This module was pre-soldered except for the potentiometers and jacks.
• This module was well-loved so you can see some blemishes, scratches, dents. There are a few corners that are scuffed too. I included many pictures so please review them carefully before purchasing!!
• Please feel free to reach out if you have any questions!
From Befaco:
HEXMIX
Hexmix System is a six channel performance mixer specially designed for Eurorack.
The system has two separate modules, the core of the mixer: Hexmix that has six channels with three band EQ, mute, pan and EQ section on the master, and Hexpander that add three auxiliar sends per channel, PFL, individual outs and balanced output.
FEATURES
Six Channel Performance Mixer
Three Band EQ per channel inspired in classical DJ mixers
Vactrol based mutes with momentary action.
Pan and Volume control
VCA Expander connection to plug every channel of an Hexmix VCA directly.
Selectable Line or Modular output level.
SPECS
Current needs: +12V: 106mA, -12V: 88mA
Width: 28 HP
Depth: 28 mm (including power connector)
Alluminium, heat-treated front panel.
HEXPANDER
Hexpander adds great functionality to Hexmix module. Featuring Three aux send with stereo returns, individual outputs for each channel, complete PFL system and balanced output.
Hexpander is designed to be placed on top of Hexmix. Expanding Eurorack concept to 6U, allows every channel to be aligned as in traditional tabletop mixers.
FEATURES
Three auxiliar sends with stereo returns and individual controls per channel.
Pre and Post Fader/EQ outputs.
Selectable Line/Modular level at return inputs.
Monitor section with PFL per channel.
Individual PostEq output per channel.
Master section with Headphones amp and balanced line outputs-
SPECS
Current needs: +12V: 90mA, -12V: 85mA
Width: 28 HP
Depth: 30mm (including power connector)
Aluminium, heat-treated front panel.
HEXMIX VCA
Hexmix VCA is a compact six channel VCA with an unique response curve range from logarithmic to linear and to exponential using a pot.
All outputs are routed to output six to act as a mixer, with a normalization of each one to remove each channel from the Mix.
FEATURES
Hexmix VCA can act as six independent VCAs as well as a Mixer for all the inputs (Selectable via a switch)
Every VCA has a response pot for the incoming CV, being full logarithmic at maximum setup and full exponential at minimum setup, having the linear response in the center position.
Level pot of each channel is an attenuator of the signal coming out of each VCA.
Jacks are normalled to 10 volts, so when we have no CV present VCA would be fully open and our Level pot will act as a volume.
SPECS
Current needs: +12V: 50mA, -12V: 50mA
Width: 14 HP
Depth: 35mm (including power connector)
Aluminiun, heat-treated front panel.
