Overview:
The new BEHRINGER PMP Powered Mixers (2 x 800-Watt stereo,
1600-Watt bridged mode) produce even more power than their predecessors while
maintaining a famously low weight and high efficiency. These mixers employ
Class-D technology including a new switch-mode power supply, significantly
reducing weight and heat. The 20-channel PMP6000 features 12 built-in XENYX
preamps, the 16-channel PMP4000 features 8 built-in XENYX mic preamps, and the
10-Channel PMP1680S features 8 high-quality built-in mic preamps. All three
models feature 24-bit FX processors and FBQ Feedback Detection.
What is Class-D Technology?
- Instead of operating relatively continuously like Class AB
circuits, Class-D amps switch on and off thousands of times per second,
delivering power only when needed. In other words, the amplifier is either
fully on or fully off , which significantly reduces power losses from the
output devices given off as heat. Less heat means our amps don’t need massive
heat sinks, and that means we can make them lighter. Our no-compromise design
means the new PMP mixers will deliver full power with incredible fidelity all
night long, without the need for lengthy rest cycles.
- When used in conjunction with switching-mode power supplies,
which don’t require huge and heavy transformers, our Class-D amplifiers provide
tremendous dynamic punch and superior fidelity. The resulting speaker systems
are much lighter, making them easy to transport and set up.
Massive Mono or Stunning Stereo
- Our latest PMP give you the choice of 2 x 800-Watt stereo, 2
x 800-Watt dual mono mode (giving you a mono version of the main signal through
one powered output plus a mono version of all monitor send signals through the
second powered input) or 1,600-Watt bridged mono sound. Whether the center of
attention happens to be a folk trio, a speech, or a synth-rock band with
mind-boggling stereo patches, PMP mixers can accommodate. This sonic
versatility also makes it an excellent choice for churches, where vocals and
stereo recordings often share face time.
Classic Control, State-of-the-Art Sound
- Leave the mic preamps at home, because the quality of sound
that was 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 output ¼" connectors can
be used for a variety of purposes, including connecting more power amps.
Connect monitor power amps or active monitor speakers to the MON SOUND output.
Powered outputs on these mixers are available in professional
Speakon-compatible format.
Small, Simple, Superb
- Medium-sized events call for a lightweight (PMP6000: 13.1
kg/ 28.9 lbs; PMP4000: 0.4 kg/22.9 lbs; PMP1680S: 9.9 kg/28.8 lbs), easy-to-use
powered mixer. BEHRINGER powered mixers are the most efficient, affordable
mixers for the job, and are even suitable for use as pure analog mixers or as
pure power amplfiers. With new technological advantages and incredible built-in
features, it’s easier than ever to lend exceptional sound quality to all kinds
of public performances.
