for environmental reasons we are excluding the batteries 

from the package

Kastle is a  mini modular synth, and as in every modular 
synth, the sounds are programmed by connecting outputs 
to inputs. Outputs are labeled by a gold outline around the 
patch points. Inputs don’t have the gold outline. Feel free to 
also connect inputs with inputs and outputs with outputs. 
There’s no risk of damage, and sometimes interesting  things 
happen with unusual connections!
