Basic question here, am looking at this for the first time...the Minimoog uses a passive mixer (oscillators go to level controls to on/off switching to a summing buss directly into the filter, card pin 4) and as such this might be a point where the signal character might sound different than if an active mixer is employed...is the audio mixer on the AJH filter passive or active? The website doesn't mention anything.
Chris Meyer talked about the CP3 mixer as follows; wouldn't the same apply to the Minimoog?
"The CP3 utilizes an old-fashioned “passive” mix bus design, which means there’s crosstalk between the input channels. As a result, turning up one input can appear to reduce the level of the other inputs – the output cannot exceed any one input’s maximum level. At best, this provides auto-leveling of your inputs; at worst, it can yield a sound some have described as phase cancellation."
