The Erica Synths Link module seems to be a simple yet very interesting module to me. Looking at the information on Erica Synths' website, this is a passive module that has 5 inputs (3.5 mm jackets) and attenuates these Eurorack signals into line level signals at 6.3 mm jackets outputs. So far so good and really useful as I believe and already shortly mentioned in another thread.

Though I wonder, since it's a passive module, would it be possible to use this module the other way around as well? Meaning if one would have an incoming line level signal on one of those five 6.3 mm jackets, could you then get it converted to output as a Eurorack signal? Or would this module only work one way, i.e. the way I described at the top of this message? Anyone knows from experience working with this module?

Thank you very much in advance!

The short answer is no. Going from Eurorack level to line level requires attenuation. That can be achieved passively.

Going from line level to Eurorack level requires additional GAIN. You cannot boost a signal's strength passively.


Hello Ronin1973,

Thank you very much for your answer. Yes that makes sense indeed. So one would need yet another module to get line level input into the Eurorack. It would have been too easy and too nice with just this Link module ;-)
