BEHRINGER EUROPOWER PMP500 Powered Mixer

The mixer and the amplifier in one box.

Load-in is easier with one less box to carry. The PMP500 puts a 12-channel mixer and a power amplifier together. Connect two passive PA speakers and the band has a system. It weighs 6.3 kg.

Two speakers, two jobs

In MAIN L/R mode it works as a stereo amplifier: left goes to OUTPUT A and right to OUTPUT B. Switch to MON/MONO for dual mono. OUTPUT A then carries the monitor signal and OUTPUT B the main mix. Speakers of 4 to 8 Ω connect through ¼" outputs.

Feedback shows up as a light

Press EQ and FBQ FEEDBACK DETECTION. An LED lights on the graphic EQ slider that matches the feedback frequency. Lower that slider until the feedback stops. The MAIN MIX / MONITOR button picks the output the EQ works on.

Channels ready for the stage

Compressors sit on channels 1 to 6, and LOW CUT filters on channels 1 to 4. The +48 V switch sends phantom power to all channels. Add Klark Teknik effects, and set the tempo of time-based ones with the PARAMETER 3 (TAP) button. The DIGITAL WIRELESS input takes an optional USB dongle and accepts signals from 2 independent Behringer ULM mics.
