once only available in the studio is ready to
go wherever you do. Built-in, boutique-caliber
mic preamps with switchable +48 V phantom
power make it possible to use either dynamic
or condenser mics with the PMP Series. The
PMP6000 gives you 12 mic inputs while the
PMP4000 and PMP1680S each give you 8 mic
inputs.
Built-in Digital Effects Processor
The new generation of PMP mixers come
equipped with 24-bit FX processors, giving you
100 mind-blowing digital effect presets such
as delay, chorus and reverb. Apply them to
any channel, as well as to the monitors and
main output. In case you’re pulling double
duty as sound engineer and performer, the FX
processors features a footswitch jack for remote
on/off. Of course, if you have treasured outboard
gear you’ve grown attached to, these mixers can
integrate them into the mix while leaving out
the built-in FX processor.
Changing the Channels
The PMP Series gives you excellent flexibility
to accommodate whatever a performance
requires. You get 12 (PMP6000) or 8 (PMP4000
and PMP1680S) channels for mics, guitars
and other mono instruments. Stereo channels
13-20 (PMP6000), 9-16 (PMP4000) and
7-10 (PMP1680S) are designed to work in
pairs as stereo channels, or independently for
more mono instruments. All mono channels
have 3-band EQ, switchable Low cut filter for
eliminating infrasonics, and Clip LEDs to indicate
when the input signal is too hot.
A STANDBY switch (PMP6000 and PMP1680S)
mutes all mic channels during breaks, preventing
the microphones from picking up noise or
interference. You can leave all faders untouched
while you play a CD via the CD/TAPE inputs.
The FBQ Feedback Detection
system automatically shows you which
frequencies are causing feedback.
Just touch the FBQ button and watch
the red LEDs on the 7-band graphic EQ
pinpoint show you which frequencies
to adjust for optimized sound,
without the feedback.
The Ins and Outs
Use the CD/TAPE IN RCA inputs to feed
in external stereo signals from CD players
or tape decks. The VOICE CANCELLER
switch eliminates the vocals from
pre-recorded music for instant
karaoke applications.
CD/TAPE OUT RCA outputs send
line-level signals from the mixer to a
recording device. The left and right
main outputs can be used for a variety
of purposes, including connecting more
power amps. Connect monitor power
amps or active monitor speakers to the
MON SEND output. Powered outputs
on these mixers are available in
professional Speakon-compatible format
for secure operation.
