I have built one of these and I must compliment Tony on the performance for part count ratio. This is a neat little mixer for not too many parts. And, Dave Bradley shared a lot of good normalizing schemes with me that allow the mixer to be 3-IN-1-OUT, 1-IN-3-OUT or separate reversing attenuators. It is great for AC. I really like the usefulness that can be crammed into 1U of space. However, I have some issues with use of the mixer for DC if you need very high accuracy. It is not accurate enough for say keyboard CV. This is not criticism, just observations of the performance as I see it for others that may be considering it. I would be happy to go into more detail privately since it is somewhat OT.

If you're gonna build your own mixer, easiest thing is to buy 1 or 2 of Tony Allgood's mixer pcbs, buy a few parts and stick it behind a MOTM panel. It uses a MOTM connector, the pots are spaced correctly, the boards mount using sturdy pot clips, and you can build a 3 input 1U or a 6 input 2U version. Choose your opamp to optimize for CV or audio mixing.
