The Mixwitch design comes from a frustration with attenuvertors (bipolar attenuators-inverters) whose off (neutral) position is difficult to retrieve, especially in live situations.
Klavis has gone for a digitally-controlled analog path where polarity inversion is at the touch of a button. So, the usefulness of attenuating/inverting can be realised by turning the pot down, swiftly pressing the inversion button and reopening the level. The zero level is where you expect it, with the pot full down.
The mute function offers the benefit of pre-adjusted pot settings ready to be activated at will.
There are plenty of analog switches controlled by a clock; but arbitrarily selecting an input with a voltage is less known. Having both control capabilities combined with the specific mixer features creates a unique fusion!
