◊The PMP1000 does not have an AFL function.
(46)PMP1000: FX SEND fader.
PMP3000: FX fader.
PMP5000: FX 1/2 fader.
This is the master send fader for the signal routed to the effects processor and to the FX SEND output (63) (see also (11) and (12)).
(47)PMP1000: MON SEND fader.
PMP3000/PMP5000: MON 1/2 fader.
These faders are used to set the monitor output volume (see also (9) and (10)).
(48)PMP1000: The main mix allows you to control the volume from the Main 1 output with both faders.
PMP3000/PMP5000: The MAIN 1 fader controls the volume of the EUROPOWER. The main signal is also provided at the MAIN 1 output (see also (58)).
(49)PMP3000/PMP5000: The MONO fader controls the mono mix signal (see also (63)).
(50)PMP5000: The SUB FILTER filters out frequencies above the selected setting, so that only low frequencies are sent to an (active) subwoofer via the MONO OUT (63)). Set this switch to “On” to activate the filter.
(51)PMP5000: The SUB FREQ control determines the
(52)The PHONS/CTRL R control adjusts the headphone or control room volume (see also (65)).
(53)PMP3000/PMP5000: The MAIN 2 control determines the volume at the MAIN 2 output (see also (59)), which is the same signal as at MAIN 1, but with extra output jacks and separate volume control.
(54)PMP3000/PMP5000: With the CD/TAPE IN control you can adjust the volume of the line signal present at the CD/TAPE INPUT (55). Use the PFL switch to monitor the signal.
PMP1000: With the CD/TAPE RET fader you can adjust the line signal applied to the CD/TAPE INPUT (55). Use the CD/TAPE MUTE switch to mute the channel.
2.4.1 Connectors
(55)Use the CD/TAPE INPUT jacks (RCA) to connect an external stereo signal, such as a CD player, tape deck or other
(56) The VOICE CANCELLER filters
the CD/TAPE INPUT signal. This function can be used for karaoke, i.e. you can remove the vocals from a song and then sing along with the music yourself.
(57)The CD/TAPE OUTPUT provides the line level stereo signal (e.g. for a DAT recorder).
◊If the CD/TAPE OUT signal is connected to a recording machine whose output signal is returned to the CD/TAPE IN, feedback can occur when you activate the record function on the recording machine.
So, disconnect the CD/TAPE IN from the recording machine before you start recording or set the CD/TAPE input signal to zero!
(58)PMP1000: The MAIN OUT jacks allow you to send the main line level signal to an external amplifier, when, for example, you want to use the mixer and effects section. The PMP3000 and PMP5000 have two separately controllable line level MAIN outputs (59) (MAIN 1/2).
(59)Connect your monitor power amps or active monitor speakers to the
MON 1/2 SEND to monitor the signal mix created with the MON controls or to route it to the musicians on stage.
(60)The PMP Series comes with a POWER AMP INSERT connection that is provided for various applications. This connection enables you to use the power amplifier of the device to amplify the output signal of another preamp. For example, it is possible to connect a larger mixer or preamp output (line signal) of an instrument amplifier. In this case, you only need an unbalanced, mono jack cable.
Furthermore, it is possible to use the POWER AMP INSERT as a conventional insert to add a compressor or graphic equalizer to the signal path,
for instance. Here, a balanced, stereo jack cable is required and the assignment of tip and ring needs to be observed according to Figure 4.5 (see Chapter 4.2 “Audio Connections”). In this case, the ring is the
Lastly, it is possible to tap the output signal of the device’s mixer section from the POWER AMP INSERT in order to use a second, external power amp. A balanced, stereo jack cable is required with the ring (not the tip) connected to the input of the external power amp. If you want to use the internal and external power amps at the same time, just wire the connector’s ring and tip together.
(61)The FOOTSWITCH jack is for a standard footswitch. You can activate an “effect bypass”, thereby muting the effects processor. Use a dual foot switch for the PMP5000, so that you can enable/disable FX 1 and FX 2 independently of each other. In this case, the tip of the 1/4" plug controls FX 1, and the ring FX 2.
