Amplifier required for mono synth > AR MK 2 ext in/audio in?

there was a thread on this topic and people referenced line level signal boosters, check it out maybe it’s a good solution.

The Rytm Input : High headroom?

Is there no way whatsoever to set the level for the synth that one plugs into the AR input? I tried to use my ER-1 through the AR, but I can barely hear it even though I have the vol at max on the drum machine. It would be nice to have an extra input as I would prefer not needing to use a mixer for playing live. But if I can’t get some volume from it, it’s kind of pointless. (As I don’t feel like lowering everything else that I have carefully set up.) Thank you!

or maybe something like this should work?

check this thread on these, maybe people who got it can tell you if it can boost the signal cleanly

Moukey / Donner compact stereo line mixers - MAMX1 / MAMX2 / MAMX3

The Surgeon interview seems to have kicked off some interest in these very inexpensive mixers. Other threads that mention them: I’m creating this thread because I couldn’t find a manual link - Moukey is a brand owned by Donner, but Donner doesn’t seem to offer online manuals. An Amazon reviewer made the following schematic: [moukey MAMX3 schematic] Note: all are welcome to discuss the value proposition of these little mixers.
