Â
High Channel Density: Features 10 input channels in total:
5 x XLR inputs, switchable between mic and line level.
4 x combined XLR mic/RCA line inputs, providing flexibility for various sources.
Dual Master Outputs: Equipped with 2 x XLR master outputs and an additional record output (RCA L/R), allowing signal routing to different PA zones or recording devices.
Comprehensive Mic Control:
Selectable Phantom Power for each XLR input channel, ideal for condenser/electret microphones.
Switchable Low-Cut Filter on every microphone input to reduce low-frequency noise (e.g., handling noise).
Priority Functionality:
Dedicated Chime button with a priority circuit and remote control capability. Choose between a 2-tone chime, 4-tone chime, or a siren.
Push-to-Talk (PTT) connection (RJ45) with a priority circuit (suitable for the optional PA-4000PTT microphone).
Additional priority circuit for channels 2 and 3.
Signal Routing and Optimization:
Each input channel has an individual level control and an output selector switch for routing the signal to Master 1, Master 2, or both.
Each master output includes a 2-way tone control (Bass/Treble) for tailored sound.
Flexible Power Operation: Supports both standard mains operation  and 24 V emergency power operation, ensuring continued operation during power outages.
