22. DSP ON: This switch, when depressed, acti-

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

vates the internal digital signal processor.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

23. PROGRAM: Use this rotary switch to select

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

the desired digital effect. The name of the

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

selected effect illuminates on the DSP display

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

panel (located above the On switch, #22). A

brief description of the DSP effects is provid-

 

 

 

 

 

ed on page 9.

24. MONITOR: Use this seven band graphic

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

equalizer to shape the monitor output signal.

 

 

 

 

 

27

 

This is useful for feedback control and to

 

 

 

 

 

 

compensate for room acoustics.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

25. LIMITER/LED METER: The mixer employs

22

 

 

 

 

 

 

internal limiter circuits to prevent overdrive

 

 

 

 

 

 

distortion from being reproduced by the

 

28

 

 

 

29

 

 

 

 

 

 

amplifiers. The Limiter LED illuminates when

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

the monitor amplifier’s internal limiter circuit

23

 

30

 

 

31

 

is activated.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The five-step LED display directly below the

 

33

 

 

 

 

 

Limiter LED indicates the level of the moni-

 

 

 

 

 

 

tor’s output signal.

32

 

 

 

 

 

 

26. POWER LED: This LED will illuminate when

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

the mixer is turned on. (The power switch is

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

located on the mixer’s rear panel - see #51,

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

page 9.)

27. PHANTOM POWER: This switch, when at the

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

“on” position, applies +48 volts DC to pins 2

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

and 3 of each channel’s XLR MIC input jack.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The adjacent LED illuminates when the phan-

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

tom power is turned on.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

28. EFF RET LEVEL: Use this control to adjust the

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

level of the internal DSP applied to the signal at

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

the Monitor Out jack (#47) and the Speakers -

40

 

 

 

 

 

 

Monitor jacks (PM82T only - #50, page 9).

 

 

 

 

 

 

29. MONITOR LEVEL: Use this control to adjust

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

42

 

 

 

 

 

the overall level of the signal at the Monitor

 

 

43

30. MAIN: Use this seven band graphic equalizer

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

to shape the main output signal. This is use-

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

ful for feedback control and to compensate for

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

room acoustics. Each slider controls both

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

main outputs simultaneously (see Speakers -

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Left / Right, #48 on page 9).

Ideal for practice or smaller gigs, this amplifier incorporates a two-channel design, offering both clean and overdrive options. Musicians can easily switch between channels, making it perfect for transitioning from crisp clean tones to gritty distortion seamlessly. The onboard reverb adds depth to any sound, enabling artists to create a richer audio experience without needing additional pedals.

Moving on to the PM82S, this amplifier ramps up the power with 82 watts of robust performance. It includes an innovative two-way speaker system that enhances sound projection and clarity, suitable for larger venues or rehearsal spaces. The PM82S also features onboard effects such as chorus and delay, allowing musicians to further sculpt their sound with ease. A built-in EQ with separate bass, midrange, and treble controls ensures that players can tailor their tone to their liking, making it a versatile choice for performers.

The PM82T takes versatility to another level, designed not just for guitarists but also for keyboardists and other electronic instruments. With its integrated Bluetooth capability, musicians can stream their music wirelessly, expanding creative possibilities. Like its sibling, the PM82T also boasts an impressive 82-watt output but differentiates itself with a unique multi-channel input, accommodating various instruments and devices simultaneously.
