Default Mixing 4 audio channels to 3?

House them together and its the same difference, house them apart and
the distiction matters.

This is unclear to me.

Do you mean that if the mixer resistor matrix is housed close to the amp IC
that the capacitors won't be needed? And if they are separated and connected
by shielded audio cables that the caps will be needed?

Thanks.


Nothing like that, no. The amp IC requires the caps, so theyre needed,
no question about it. But theyre needed for the amp, not for mixing
purposes, so if the 2 circuits can be disconnected by the end user,
then the caps need to be with the IC amp part, not the mixer part.
