behringer semi-modular synthesizer

i used a little behringer mixer (mx602a) to make some weird noises like you hear it from circuit bended toys or even modular synthesizers ;).
just patch the aux send of your mixer to some inputs and patch some other outs to in as well and you will get some strange noises. there may be better ways to patch it...
if you want to try to make some noise too: be careful... use a limiter and a hp-filter, because it will produce some really mean low frequencies...
have fun watching an try it out with your own mixers :)

could this damage the mixer?

[BernadetteBruch]

i'm not sure about that.

[D22D21]

also known as no-input mixer.

did some of that stuff on same behringer wile ago. nice!!

[BernadetteBruch]

i didn't knew there was a term for it, thank you.

[archebeats]

@BernadetteBruch only if phantom powered

[PaoloLegnetti]

@cghowdy Yes it could, very likely infact. But it's all part of the fun, isn't it?

[noiseforfiction]

Great idea !

[TTTsnare]

@kdwade Yes. I've burnt out 2 mixers by doing this. Completely fried one and only fried two channels on the other.

[kdwade]

@TTTsnare Do you base this statement on experience? People are always saying "don't do no-input mixer, it'll fry your gear," but not only does this make no sense to me, I've never heard of anybody actually experiencing fried gear.

[kdwade]

No.

[XYtoTheDoubleG]

Man.... That was so cool!

[iloverush123]

How do you have this thing patched?

[colorform2113]

@cghowdy yes it can. i used to do this with a danelectro fish and chips eq pedal. put a "Y" splitter on the out put send ont to the input of the pedal and the other to effects or amp and you have a cool little drone synth. now the key phrase in all this is "used to". the pedal is completely shot, but im not crying over it i think i paid 9 bucks for it lol. dont go doing this with a toft or somthing like that lol.

LMAO...that's freaking cool...I have this exact same mixer as well as a Eurodesk SL 3242 FX Pro....Never made mine do that before...
