Overview
The Cre8audio Assembler is a versatile, synth-focused analog mixer designed in collaboration with Pittsburgh Modular to bring the warmth and character of vintage consoles to modern electronic setups. Engineered as a 10-channel mixing solution, it functions seamlessly as a standalone desktop unit or can be unhoused to fit directly into a 40HP Eurorack system. Its core philosophy revolves around a "one-knob-per-function" workflow, ensuring immediate, intuitive control without menu diving, making it ideal for live performance and dynamic studio recording.
Beyond simple summing, the Assembler acts as a creative instrument with high-headroom preamps on every channel that offer up to 20x gain boost, allowing users to drive signals into pleasant analog saturation. It features a flexible routing architecture with two complex mono channels sporting 2-band EQ, four standard mono channels, and two stereo pairs. With three independent aux sends, a dedicated cue mix for headphones, and soft clipping circuitry to glue mixes together, it provides a professional, cohesive sound for modular synthesizers and line-level instruments alike.
