Easy Installation
A basic installation consists of one
P16-I audio interface, which connects to
the main mixing console, and up to six
P16-M Personal Mixers, creating a system
big enough to equip a typical recording
studio, a small to medium-sized band,
or a worship team. You’ll also need a
few standard audio and CAT5 cables.
The optional P16- MB mounting bracket
allows the P16-M Digital Personal Mixer to
be attached to any standard microphone,
music or drum stand. The system can
easily be expanded via the P16-D Digital
ULTRANET Distributor, six of which can
be combined to drive up to forty-eight
P16-M Personal Mixers.
Extraordinary Value
The POWERPLAY P16 puts total control
of the monitor system where it belongs—
in the hands of the performers, freeing up
the engineer to sculpt the perfect
front-of-house mix. The POWERPLAY P16
system is the easy, affordable way to tame
runaway stage volume and give your
musicians and vocalists what they really
want—“more me!”
