The Stereo Channel is a single-channel stereo module for the CGM Eurorack mixer, fully compatible with every other product of this family.
Thanks to its advanced I/O configuration, it can work as stereo-to-stereo, mono-to-mono, mono-to-stereo, and stereo-to-mono.
The gain control and the two mono FX sends can work in pre or post-fader mode, and the panpot can also work as a dual mono crossfader, making it suitable for blending two mono sources into a single mono sum.
All the parameters are voltage-controllable for creative mixing automation.
Mechanical mute, PFL, and Solo-in-Place complete the feature set suitable both for studio and live performances.
Versatile Signal Flow
Thanks to a flexible I/O semi-normalization pattern, you can use the SC in other ways than stereo. You can patch a mono signal and record it in stereo straight after the VCA to track the voltage-controlled panning, or blend two mono sources into one, and more.
Voltage-Controlled VCA with Saturation
The Channel module features two amplitude controls: an input VCA and a volume fader. The input VCA is voltage-controllable and, if the signal has enough amplitude, it can overdrive the circuit with a creamy, fat saturation. A peak LED tells when the signal is clipping, but don’t fear cranking it up!
Mono/Stereo Direct Output
An output allows you to take the channel output for parallel processing or multitrack recording. You can choose to work pre-fader (straight after the input VCA) or post-fader (with the main fader affecting the signal’s amplitude). The outputs are semi-normaled: use just the left output for a mono sum, and both channels for a stereo signal.
Two Voltage-Controlled Effect Sends
The yellow and green knobs are two effect sends levels. They can work pre- or post-fader, and they can be voltage-controlled for expressive and creative results.
Voltage-Controlled Pan/Crossfade
The Pan knob defines the stereo placement of the sound, which you can voltage-control as well. The Pan/Crossfade switch lets you use the SC as a dual mono mixer, blending two mono signals into a mono output. When in Crossfade mode, the pan pot controls the balance of the two inputs.
Mute Button
The mute button allows you to remove a channel from the group sum with a click. The mute function works over the input VCA, so it will also mute the effect sends.
Solo-In-Place Switch
The Solo-In-Place switch lets you prepare a “scene” of channels to be isolated from the other ones, and then recall it through the Safe Solo switch on the Group module. It can be seen as a mute group function that allows you to mute all the channels outside the solo scene with a click.
PFL Button
Push the PFL button and rotate the PFL fader on the master module to preview a channel: it’s convenient for tuning your oscillators or checking if everything is ok before bringing whatever sound source into the mix.

How much is my shipping?
Shipping is automatically calculated before you submit your payment information. Simply add items to your cart and proceed to the checkout page, where you'll be offered shipping options and their prices. In the UK, 'next working day' shipping is free if the order value is over £150, and £5 otherwise. We can also ship on a 'next working day before 12pm' service, which costs £6 for orders over £150 and £7.50 for orders under £150.
Shipping to mainland EU typically costs between £7 and £20, depending on the shipping method and the size and weight of the order.
Do you ship to my country?
Almost certainly - the site will give you an estimate of shipping costs if you add an item to the cart and then enter your country and postcode. If you have specific requirements (such as if you prefer UPS over FedEx, for example) then let us know in advance and we'll try to work something out for you.
Shipping methods
We use a combination of DPD, Royal Mail and Parcelforce for the UK, and for international orders it's either DHL, FedEx, UPS, Royal Mail or Parcelforce depending on where you are in the world. If you have a particular preference then try to let us know BEFORE you order so we can look into it for you. Please note that there may occasionally be additional shipping charges if you live in a remote area, depending on what surcharges are applied by the shipper. We'll get in touch to discuss this with you in such cases.
Dispatch times
For UK orders, we aim to dispatch the same working day if we get the order before 16:00. If you have a really urgent situation then of course drop us an email before ordering and we'll always do our absolute best to accommodate you.
For international orders, we normally dispatch the same day if we get the order before 13:00 but again, occasionally it might be the next day before we can send it out, and sometimes the couriers may come to collect a little earlier than scheduled which would also push an order into the next day.
Saturday/Sunday shipping
If you're in the UK and you order before 16:00 on a Friday then we can send something for a Saturday or Sunday delivery with DPD. This is FREE for order values over £350, £5 for order values between £75 and £250, and £7 for order values under £75. (NB: this applies to UK mainland addresses only). Please note that any orders placed after 16:00 on a Friday will ship on the Monday.
International shipping times
Since April 2020, the couriers we use have suspended guarantees for shipping times, so even though we're paying them for priority services - 24-48 hours for most of the world - in practice it's often an extra day on top and sometimes it can be longer. There is absolutely nothing we can do about this, unfortunately. If you are outside the UK and it's a life-or-death situation where you absolutely MUST have that passive mult for the next day then... it may be better to find a local supplier.
Pre-orders
If a product is listed as a pre-order, it means we've ordered it from the supplier but it's not physically in stock yet. The product listing will include an estimated shipping date based on the best information we have from the supplier, but do bear in mind this is subject to change and is not a guaranteed date.
If you place an order containing a mixture of in-stock and pre-order items, we'll normally hold off on shipping anything until the pre-order item(s) have arrived, rather than splitting it into multiple shipments. If you need the in-stock items sooner, we'd recommend placing separate orders. As always, please get in touch if you have questions.
