basically the idea for this module comes from building modular patches 
from the scratch while a live performance. You will want to add more and 
more modules to the audio signal path.
If you have a system with a lot of audiomixers and muliples (e.g. the 
Roland 100m), this is no problem.
With the A100 this requires everytime to break up the signal path, which 
is close to "stop your musical performance". Similar is valid for adding 
additional control voltages to a module, which provides only one 
adjustable CV input.

The idea of my module is to extend modules like all the VCFs or similar 
(VC-Phasers, BBDs, Waveshapers...) with additional audio inputs, 
additional CV-inputs and additional outputs.

Additionally to this simple extension, came the thought, that it is not 
so easy to crossfade from one source to another with two normal mixer 
inputs - a real crossfader is much better.

If you hardwire the summing points of the mixers to the corresponding 
main module you even do not need any active elements or powersupply.

I will try to make a sketch drawing of a (block) diagram and a potential 
frontplate draft.
