Build your dream rig with the silver intellijel 4U Palette Case, a portable Eurorack case that's an ideal solution for the space-conscious needs of a touring artist. The case offers a single row (62 HP) of standard Eurorack (3 RU) format and a single row of 1 RU for extra utility modules.
The case also features a built-in utility row with two 1x4 buffered mults, two 1/4" TRS connectors, a 3.5mm TRS MIDI input, a USB-B MIDI input, a power rocker switch, and a 15 VDC power input. The 4U Palette case includes a power brick, power cord, and a 3.5mm to DIN MIDI adapter.
At a Glance
- Anodized aluminum case
- Aluminum extruded rails
- Rubber feet to protect your desktop
- Rear mounted power supply for maximum module depth
- 62 HP of both 3U space (for standard Eurorack modules) and 1U space (for all those necessary little utility modules)
- Two built-in 1x4 buffered mults (chainable into a 1 x 8) with input level/polarity LEDs
- Built-in MIDI Input (both USB and TRS-A MIDI via the supplied 5-pin DIN adapter)
- Two 1/4″ balanced audio jacks that can be connected to the optional Stereo Line Out 1U, Stereo Line In 1U, Pedal I/O 1U or Mixup.
- Access connectors for internally connecting I/O modules to the built-in MIDI and audio jacks
TRS Audio Jack Compatibility
Each of these 1/4" Neutrik TRS jacks can operate as either an audio input or an audio output depending on which modules you connect to the circuit board inside the Palette case. This allows you maximum flexibility when configuring your case — whether you wish to use these audio jacks as outputs for a Palette-based synthesizer; as inputs for a Palette-based effects device; or as a send/return for plugging external pedals or effects devices into your Palette’s signal chain.
These jacks may be used with many different modules (not included), such as the following:
- Stereo Line Out 1U: This module, when connected to an Audio Jacks Connector on the circuit board, sends balanced +4 dBu audio out a pair of 1/4" TRS jacks. Use this module to send audio from your Palette case to a mixer, amp, or DAW.
- Stereo Line In 1U: This module, when connected to an Audio Jacks Connector on the circuit board, receives balanced +4 dBu audio from a pair of 1/4" TRS jacks. Use this module to receive external audio for processing with other modules in your Palette case.
- Pedal I/O 1U: This module, when connected to the Link Connector on the circuit board, addresses a pair of 1/4" TRS jacks—sending an unbalanced line-level output to the left jack, and returning an unbalanced live-level input from the pair’s right jack. Use this module to patch external effects or stomp boxes into your Palette.
- Mixup 3U: This module, when connected to the Link Connector on the circuit board, sends the unbalanced L/R stereo mix from the rear-panel output of Mixup directly to a pair of 1/4" jacks on Palette. Alternatively, you can connect Mixup so that it receives unbalanced audio from a pair of Palette’s 1/4" jacks, instead.
- Stereo Mix 1U: This module, when connected to the Link Connector on the circuit board, sends the unbalanced L/R stereo mix from the rear-panel output of the Stereo Mix 1U directly to a pair of 1/4" jacks on Palette. Alternatively, you can connect Stereo Mix 1U so that it receives unbalanced audio from a pair of Palette’s 1/4" jacks, instead.
Eurorack Ready
