5.2.1 Using the amplifiers as independent power amplifiers

In addition to the joint control of all channels via the MAIN input, each of the four power amplifiers can also be used independently. The AUX IN inputs in combination with the BALANCE controls serve this purpose.

If the BALANCE control is set to its clockwise stop position (position “AUX“), the MAIN signal is muted; only the input signals applied to the AUX IN input are routed to the power amplifier. By configuring the amplifiers as completely independent power amplifiers, you can insert up to four independent stereo programme sources; thus, four different and individual mixes for up to four musicians can be created. As with a stage monitor system, you can give each musician a specific configuration of instruments and create a personal mix for him or her that is musically inspiring. Or you can set up different signal paths for the interpreters in a conference system.

Configure sub-groups or create pre-mixes using the effects and/or monitor facilities of your mixing console. Fully turn up the BALANCE control and connect the AUX inputs of the BEHRINGER POWERPLAY PRO to the corresponding monitor, sub-group or single outputs of the mixer.
