particularly since we discovered that in French MTCHIO pretty much means “love your puppies”. This
custom panel, located on the rear of the Merging chassis, extends the sync I/O capabilities of the
Mykerinos board with user friendly connectivity and adds some interesting new features. It has been
designed to mirror and improve all the connections found on the Mykerinos optional TC-Breakout cable.
