Schertler expands Arthur

Schertler has announced three new modules for the mixer you design and build yourself. The new Multiple In, Subgroup and Spring (reverb) modules have been designed for seamless integration into the existing range of input and output units, offering greater flexibility and more efficient workflow when used with Schertler’s Arthur Format 48 modular mixer.
The Multiple In is a Class A input module that can receive four line signals (or two stereo lines). Mainly intended for use with audio devices that generate a 0 dbV line signal, it is designed to enable simple routing of line signals to Arthur’s L/R Master. Although the unit has more limited features (i.e. no Gain, filters or Aux routing), Schertler says it is very useful for subgroup routing: Its inputs can accommodate effect units, CD players, tape or digital recorders, pre-amps of any kind and electronic instruments such as keyboards and Midi devices.
The Subgroup is a high-end, Class-A summing amp. It functions as an additional unit for configuring a group of input modules that are to be controlled via a single pair of faders. Two Subgroup units can be directly mounted in the mixer – along with a theoretically infinite number of other Subgroup units that must be cabled either to one of Arthur’s Stereo In or Multiple In modules.
The new Spring reverb can be used both as a mixer module and as a stand-alone unit. Equipped with six springs, the unit is designed to deliver a rich reverb effect that also has a time-adjustable analogue decay. A digital delay provides a simple and efficient solution for delay lines that retard or echo the signal before being sent to the spring. When used as a stand-alone unit, the Spring can provide reverb for a signal from another mixer, or a guitar pedal, for example.
The new modules can be ordered online as part of a new mixer configuration. Current ARTHUR users can also purchase the modules separately to add to existing configurations.
