Summary

  • A DIY audio mixer made by [Something Physical] was inspired by an earlier 3-channel mixer made by Moritz Klein, but stretches to eight channels.
  • It is a simple build, lacing together op-amp gain stages, pots, and jacks, as well as a power LED, all wrapped up in a slant-faced wooden box.
  • The mixer was made for recording audio, and Something Physical believes that there is something special about using audio gear you have made yourself.
  • The mixer could be improved with the addition of meters and sliders, and a change to the labels to make them more readable.
  • However, even in its current form it is a fun project which is fit for purpose and would be a satisfying build for an audio enthusiast.
