position.
2. If you need to connect or disconnect any cables or units, make sur the Power is OFF before doing so.

1. VOLUME: Determines volume level of the
channel in the mix.
2. LOW EQ: The LOW EQ control gives 15db of
boost or cut at 80Hz. By turning the knob to the
right (boost) instruments such as guitars can be
given more clarity, or vocals can be ‘warmed’.
Turning to the left (cut) will eliminate unwanted
low frequencies such as those caused by close
miking or excessive bass frequencies in instruments
3. HIGH EQ: The High EQ control gives 15dB
boost or cut at 12kHz. Turn to the right to add
5
clarity to high frequency components such as percussion. By turning to the left, high frequencies
such as ‘hiss’ are cut.
4. MIC/LINE INPUT: Connection can be made to
the MIC/LINE inputs with either XLR or 1/4” phono
jack. This connection can be either a microphone
or a line level signal.
5. EFX: Use this control to determine the signal
level to be sent to the built in digital delay effect
control.

The LF control frequency has been carefully selected, allowing pleasing musical adjustment to
vocals or instruments without losing their natural balance. The HF control is similarly designed to
enable pleasing musical control without harshness or excessive mid range interference.

to the right (boost) instruments such as guitars can be given more clarity, or vocals can be
‘warmed’. Turning to the left (cut) will reduce hum or unwanted background interference.
3. HIGH EQ: The High EQ control gives 12dB boost or cut at 8kHz. Turn to the right to add
clarity to high frequency components such as percussion. By turning to the left, high frequencies such as ‘hiss’ are cut.

MASTER SECTION DESCRIPTION PM500 AND PM600:
DIGITAL DELAY SECTION:
The built in digital delay will process the
signal from the input channels and feed to
the master output. The effects of digital
delay are controlled by:
TIME: This adjusts the internal time of the
delays. Turn to the right to increase the
interval time between two delays, turn to
the left to decrease.
REPEAT: This increases the repeat rate
of the delays by turning the knob to the
right.

PM600

VOLUME: This knob adjusts the mix level
of the effect.

MASTER CONTROL PM500:
The Master Control adjusts
the final level of the Main
bus signal which is output to
the speakers.

MASTER CONTROL PM600:
The Master Control on the
PM600 also offers a three band
(MID, LOW and HIGH) EQ
section for tonal adjustment of
the final mix.

TAPE IN AND REC OUT PM500 AND PM600:

PM500:
1. MAIN LINE OUT: This unbalanced insertion point allows the main output to be sent to an
external signal processor or power amplifier. The insert is a 1/4” phono jack socket which is not
bypassed.
2. SPEAKER OUTPUT JACKS: These outputs allow two speakers to be connected at the
same time to the powered mixer. The total minimum load required is 4 Ohms. If the total load is
less than 4 Ohms it may result in the mixer being damaged. The following guidelines should be
noted:
When using two speakers at the same time, use 8-16 Ohms speakers.
When using one speaker only, use a 4-8 Ohms speaker.
3. FUSE: Always ensure that the fuse is of the correct rating.
4. ALUMINIUM HEATSINK: This allows a cooling airflow through the unit. Make sure that the
heatsink is free from dust and there is sufficient room left at the back of the unit to allow the
heatsink to work efficiently.
