 Palette Case 

 

3. Buff Mult 1 

The first of two built-in 1 x 4 buffered signal multipliers. Plug an audio or CV signal into the 
left-most jack and a buffered duplicate of that signal appears at the four jacks to its right. For 
more information about Buff Mults, see  

Understanding Buff Mults 

. 

4. Buff Mult 2 

The second of two built-in 1 x 4 buffered signal multipliers. Plug an audio or CV signal into its 
left-most jack and a buffered duplicate of that signal appears at the four jacks to its right. 

Buff Mult 1 is normalled to Buff Mult 2. So if nothing is plugged into Buff Mult 2’s input, then 
Buff Mult 1’s input is duplicated across all 8 outputs, making the pair of Buff Mults act as a 
single 1 x 8 buffered signal multiplier. 

To the left of each Buff Mult’s input jack is an LED, whose brightness indicates the amount of 
voltage appearing at the input, and whose color indicates the polarity (with  

green 

 signifying 

positive voltages, and  

red 

 signifying negative).

” TRS MIDI Input 

MIDI input connector on 

” TRS jack socket. Use the enclosed conversion cable to connect an 

industry standard 5-pin DIN connector to the case. MIDI sent into this jack is routed to the 
10-pin MIDI Connector socket on the Palette’s  

circuit board 

, where it can be connected to a 

MIDI input module, such as the Intellijel µMIDI 1U. 

6. USB MIDI Input 

MIDI input connector on USB. MIDI sent into the USB port is routed to the 10-pin MIDI 
Connector socket on the Palette’s  

circuit board 

, where it can be connected to a MIDI input 

module, such as the Intellijel µMIDI 1U. 

7. TRS Audio Jack 1 

This ¼” Neutrik TRS jack (and the one beside it) can operate as either an audio input or an 
audio output depending on which modules you connect to the circuit board inside the Palette 
case. This allows you maximum flexibility when configuring your case — whether you wish to 
use these audio jacks as outputs for a Palette-based synthesizer; as inputs for a Palette-based 
effects device; or as a send/return for plugging external pedals or effects devices into your 
Palette’s signal chain. 

These jacks may be used with any one of the following modules: 

Stereo Line Out 1U : This module, when connected to the Audio Jacks Connector on 
the  

circuit board 

, sends ba4dBu audio out the two ¼” TRS jacks. 

Stereo Line In 1U : This module, when connected to the Audio Jacks Connector on the 

circuit board 

, receives ba4dBu audio input from the two ¼” TRS jacks. 

Note: The Stereo Line In 1U module is not yet available.
