User Manual 1.0 – Jan 2, 2019 

The 

Listen IO

 is a simple module which gets signals in and out of a Eurorack system by converting to and from 

normal modular levels. The top section converts any external signal to modular levels by providing up to 30x gain 

(+30dB), allowing you to use table-top synthesizers, keyboards, phones/tablets, computers, toys, microphones, 

etc. in your patches. The bottom section does the opposite: modular signals are converted to normal line level 

signals. The bottom two jacks can be used as line outs or as headphone jacks, so you and a friend can listen in 

stereo at the same time. 

Each section has two inputs and outputs for use with a stereo signal or two mono signals. An LED bar graph for 

each output shows the signal level and clipping.  

The

 Listen IO 

features: 

• Line to modular conversion, and modular to line/headphone conversion 

• Works with guitars, table-top synths, effect pedals, keyboards, groove boxes, and many microphones  

• Dual mono or stereo conversion 

• LEDs show signal level and clipping 

• Gain knob allows for wide range of boost or cut 

• Headers in back for connecting to 

Listen Up

 or DIY adaptor module (1/4”, banana, etc.) 

• Two headphone outputs and stereo inputs for use as a compact headphones module
