Normalizing
Internal connections that are active when no jacks are inserted allow additional features.
Such connections are called normalization and can be seen as internal patching.
Input normalization

in A

out A
out B
When there is no jack in input B, the signal brought to input A is distributed to both inputs.
This is useful to send a single modulation source to two targets without requiring a multiple or
other signal duplicating accessory.
Output normalization = mixer

= Mix
When there is no jack at output A, output B becomes a mix of signal A and B.
This is useful when two modulation signals should act on the same destination. It avoids requiring
an additional mixer.

At first glance this setup might seem pointless.
Actually, it is a very useful setup for live performance: it allows preparing a first adjustment of
gain and offset for a modulation and a activate a variation of the whole at the flick of switch B.
The neat trick is that it is not necessary to switch off A before activating B; as a matter of fact:
•
If the gain should go higher, switch b is set to + and Gain B adds some signal to the one
set in A
•
If the gain should be reduced, switch B is activated to negative and Gain B will reduce the
signal set in A; going further will even invert the polarity of the signal.
•
Offset B pot can freely increase, reduce or counteract the offset defined in A
