GENERAL DESCRIPTION

The Architectural Acoustics MMA™ 800T is a high quality mixer/preamp with nine input channels. Each channel provides a level control, and the master output section features bass and treble EQ controls (defeatable), and special equalization contour.

The MMA™ 800T provides unmatched application flexibility with an array of optional plug-in modules, allowing each system to be tailor-made for specialized installations. Input modules may be loaded in, as required, for varying sound reinforcement applications, number of input channels, special functions, etc.

The program input includes a level control and is totally separate from the other eight channels. External signals may be patched in at this point as a system auxiliary input or the ninth input channel. Signals appearing at this input are routed directly to the master summing amplifier stage and are mixed with signals from the other eight channels. Systems requiring a single input may use the program input--making the purchase of an input module unnecessary. The program level control regulates the level of this input and the signal is routed through the system bass and treble controls.

The MMA 800T is packaged as a stand-alone unit but will also rack-mount into a standard 19" rack with an optional rack-mount kit.
