Resumen del manual
It’s the Formula One of power mixers, so it’s hardly surprising that the PowerMate has won numerous awards and come out on top in countless comparative tests. But aside from its quality, it’s the fact that it matches perfectly the needs of its users that makes the PowerMate the outstanding solution for a wide range of professional sound reinforcement applications. Now, after many extraordinarily successful years, the PowerMate has undergone a metamorphosis from which it emerges, more powerful, more fully- featured, and more elegant than ever before: the Power and the Beauty. What makes a PowerMate a PowerMate? All the function groups of the PowerMate are 100% professional in terms of their design and specification. First comes the mixing section, where you will find high-quality, discrete microphone preamps, new, dust- proof ALPS faders (specially developed for the PowerMate) with very high attenuation even in the HF range, 48V phantom power switchable to the channels in groups of six and a dynamic range that would put most dedicated professional mixers to shame. AUX 3+4 are separately switchable pre/post fader. Then come the ultra-efficient Class H power amplifiers, which now deliver 2 x 700 W into 4 Ohms (PM 1000 and 1600). They are equipped with dynamic limiters, an extensive range of protections and the patented LPN filter for clearly improved bass performance. Finally in the effects section, the two digital effects processors offer 99 studio quality presets each and are individually foot-switchable. On top of these, there are many other useful features designed to solve special problems, such as the two feedback filters, the vocal voicing filter and the standby switch. This is a powered mixer that can also be used as a pure mixer, with power amplifiers every bit as good as dedicated 19” concert sound amplifiers, and studio quality effects specially optimised for live performance. Housed in a robust case with a sturdy metal lid, the PowerMate is manufactured in Germany to the highest standards. Nothing else sounds like it. Nothing else performs like it. And nothing is as reliable. The Power and the Beauty! pro-mixing pro-power pro-effects The discrete microphone preamps of the PowerMate 1000 and PowerMate 1600 combine outstanding audio quality with extremely low noise and distortion, setting new standards in professional mixing technology. Ergonomically designed gain controls with a range of 60 dB, group-switchable phantom power, vocal voicing filters, 3band EQ with semiparametric mids, four aux sends, PFL, Mute, dust- proof ALPS faders, 2 x 7-band graphic EQs, feedback filters and four stereo channels are just some of the other professional features. The integrated high-efficiency Class H power amplifiers deliver an impressive 2 x 700 watts into 4 ohms and an absolutely safe 2 x 870 watts into 2.66 ohms with comparatively little heat build-up. All the protective circuits with which the Dynacord 19” amplfiers are equipped are present here, including protections against overheating, short-circuits and DC voltage and HF and back EMF protection. The flow of current at power up is limited and there is a short delay before power is switched to the loudspeaker outputs. An LPN filter and a super-fast dynamic audio limiter are further Dynacord-typical features. Two parallel and individually controlled 24-bit stereo digital effects devices with 48-bit algorithms offer a total of 2 x 99 live-optimised presets in studio quality. User-friendly Up/Down keys are used to select between room reverb, plate reverb, echo reverb, chorus reverb, mono/stereo delay, modulated delay effects (like chorus and flanger) and a large number of other special effects. Your preferred starting presets can be stored in program mode so as to be instantly available next time you switch on the device. The effects returns can be switched into or out of the signal path using either one footswitch for both of the integrated effects devices or a separate footswitch for each. SYSTEM DETAILS & FEATU SYSTEM DETAILS & FEATU MIC / LINE CHANNELS MIC / STEREO LINE CHANNELS The MIC/LINE channels of the PowerMate are outstandingly well-equipped and offer a multitude of useful extras. To allow the use of condenser microphones, phantom power can be switched to the channels in groups of six. Inserts in each mono channel permit the external processing of the microphone signals. Ergonomically designed GAIN pots with a range of 60 dB plus Signal Present and Peak LEDs beside the faders provide optimum control over the performance of the discrete microphone preamps. A switchable 80 Hz LO-CUT FILTER is provided for the suppression of low frequency noise. The 3-band EQ section includes a sweepable (100 Hz – 8 kHz) semi-parametric MID, a LO-SHELV at 60 Hz and a HI-SHELV at 12 kHz with a control range of +/- 15 dB in each case. AUX1 and AUX2 are switched post-fade and control the level of signal sent to the onboard effects devices FX1 and FX2. AUX3 and AUX4 are des...
