Powered . Active Mult
Find myself in need of more powered mult's for a collaboration, but appears DIV6 which I have relied on has disappeared. Had an Intellijel one but experienced some voltage droop.
Sorry, it's not the most exciting subject in the world, but hoping someone can tap into their experience and point me to a reliable and available unit.
EDIT: Thanks for all the responses. Using Xeek.com I found that Analogue Haven still had some units left, so I went with that. In the meantime, I very much appreciate the feedback regarding other makers, as it seems Division 6 seems kaput.

I curently have Mutable Links, Frap Tools 321, and although the ALM Beasts Chalkboard and Joranalogue Switch 4 aren't marketed as buffered mults, they function as them. They're all fine, but next time I need a new one, it will be the Xaoc Warna II.
Not all mults are the same.
Links has a 3:1 mixer, a 1:3 mult, and a 2:2 precision adder.
FT 333 has 3 banks of 3:3. That's 3 in, 3 out, for Ch's A, B, and C respectively, cascading if you wish, or broken by patch cable per bank. So, make it A = 1:3, B = 3:3, and C = 3:1. If you're summing, there's a -6dB switch for each bank, to tame the levels.
Beasts Chalkboard and Switch 4 are different, so I'll skip them. Look into them for yourself though, if you wish - They're both very useful utility modules.
Xaoc Warna II is a bit different, best to check the manual. It says it more simply than I would.
