MX1, MX2 Active Mixer Preamp for Magnetic- and Piezo- Pickups

Low Noise Studio Quality :: High Quality Dustproof Pot.
Rugged and Shielded :: Input Screw Terminals


The RICHTER MX1, MX2 active mixer preamp combines two buffered high impedance inputs via a blend potentiometer to one output.

In the center position - provided by a center click - the input signals have
the same level.
An additional cermet trim pot in channel 1 of the MX2 circuit provides a matching between both input signal levels by attenuation the IN1 signal.
Two screw terminals for easy and solder free connection of signal sources - magnetic- or piezo-pickups are a guarantee for quick and easy mounting inside your instrument - ideal for luthiers and replacement.
This fully shielded circuit requires no shielding inside the instrument.
We use only the best quality components on market available.

Features:

  • Low noise, high definition amplifier design with precise and smooth
    sound reproduction without signal losses.
  • Discrete class A input sections with hand selected and matched FETs.
  • 0,1% precision metal film resistors in the signal path with a resultant noise factor of up to 10 times lower than standard thick film resistors.
  • Low tolerance film and COG capacitors in the signal path featuring lowest distortion and superior linearity.
  • Rugged high quality blend potentiometer with center click
  • Cermet trimming potentiometer (INPUT1) for input level matching
    - MX2 only
  • Screw input terminals with marking for signal-input (red) and GND (black)
  • Completely shielded and encapsulated - no shielding inside the
    instrument required.

After manufacture each unit undergoes a throughout test and inspection. This ensures each unit passes strict quality standards. Serial number is carried out for traceability purposes.
