I was thinking of an expanded update for the matrix mixer. 3x3 attenuverted pots + a set of overall gain control for each channel + gain amount switches
So you wouldn’t need an inverted section, because each channel can be inverted or not.
I hope the middle point or zero is easy to set though. the overall gain might help with that a little.
What was it that was said about chaining inputs?
more on topic: the CMIX is ordered.
8HP panel
3 normal ins with pots
3 inverted ins with pots
2 outs
Some mods are possible for keying effects (like the Matrix mixer), but I have added no
dedicated MODpoints as the pcb is tightly packed. so (there is) no space left!
(on the pcb I mean, not space in general)

thanks, that is what I meant. edited the sentence for ultra clarity!

Build tips
Use this order for placing the components:
- IC sockets
- 100nF caps (the kit uses vertical mounted types)
- resistors
- diodes
- ferrite beads
- power header
- polarised 10uF caps
- pots & jacks

Just got my pcb set yesterday, many thanks @reverselandfill!
Here is a quick test, shapes are generated using CMIX (H ramp, V ramp, 3x Cadet VCO, 1x Castle VCO), then sent to VU002 for doubling, the 4 outputs goes to Matrix Mixer, then to RGB encoder, and further processed in composite using CBV002.

Resistor placements to help you build the CMIX while I continue to write the build manual
