EUROPOWER PMH1000/PMH3000/PMH5000
2. CONTROL ELEMENTS
In BRIDGE mode, always connect only one
loudspeaker with an impedance of at least 8
ΩΩ
ΩΩ
Ω to
the OUTPUT B jack! Please note that OUTPUT A must
NEVER be used in BRIDGE mode!
In all other operating modes, the minimum
impedance of the speaker must not fall below 4
ΩΩ
ΩΩ
Ω.
Please note that the power delivered to the speaker
connected to OUTPUT B in BRIDGE AMP MODE is
considerably higher than the power provided to the
speakers wired to the parallel speaker outputs.
Please read the information given on the rear panel
of the power mixer.
Information on how to properly connect your speaker
with regard to polarity can be found on the rear of
the unit (PIN assignment) (see also and ).
PMH5000: Use the BEHRINGER SPEAKER PROCESSING
switch to activate a filter that allows you to adapt the mixer
to the characteristics of your loudspeakers. If the speakers
have a limited frequency response in the bass range, this
function allows you to filter this range at the output signal
of the mixer and thus adapt it optimally to the frequency
response of the speakers.
PMH1000/PMH5000: If STANDBY is pressed, all input
channels are muted. During pauses you can prevent the
microphones from picking up noise or interference, which
would then be reproduced by the P.A. system or possibly
damage the speaker diaphragms. The benefit is that all
faders can be left untouched while you play back music
from CD via the CD/TAPE inputs (see ). There is also
no need to move the faders and lose your mix.
2.2 Equalizer and FBQ
Your power mixer features a graphic 7-band equalizer,
which allows you to fine-tune the sound depending on the
room acoustics. In the center position the
frequency response is not effected. To boost
or cut a certain frequency range, simply
move the corresponding fader upward or
downward respectively.
Please note that the equalizer behaviour depends
on the position of the AMP MODE switch (see ).
Press the FBQ IN switch to activate the Feedback Detection
system (the FBQ will be active only if you have switched
on the equalizer before). Frequencies causing
feedback are shown by brightly lit fader LEDs. All other
LEDs will be darker. Now, cut the frequency range in
question until feedback disappears (the LED gets darker or
goes out). This function is available for both the main and
monitor mix.
PMH1000: The switch FBQ FEEDBACK DETECTION
performs the same function as on the PMH3000 and
PMH5000.
Use the MAIN/MON 1 switch to select whether the equalizer
processes the main or the monitor mix. When not pressed,
the stereo equalizer processes only the main mix. When the
switch is pressed, the EQ processes only the monitor mix.
PMH1000: The MAIN MIX/MONITOR switch performs the
same function as on the PMH3000 and PMH5000.
Press the EQ IN switch to activate the equalizer. The fader
LEDs illuminate when the EQ is on.
Use this LED display to control the output level of the main
signal. The upper LIM LED illuminates when the internal
amp protection circuit responds to levels that are too high.
PMH1000: The POWER LED is illuminated when you switch
the unit on.
The LIM LEDs and the LED display do NOT light up when
an external signal is fed in via the PWR AMP INSERT
jacks .
2.3 Effects section
List of all multi-effects processor presets.
The LED level meter on the effects module should always
show a sufficiently high level. Make sure that the Clip LED
illuminates with signal peaks only. If it is constantly illu-
minated, the effects processor is overloading, which can
lead to unpleasant distortion. The FX SEND fader (PMH1000)
or FX/FX 1/2 fader (PMH3000/PMH5000) controls the level
sent to the effects module and to the FX SEND output
jacks.
The effects display always reads the currently selected
preset.
PMH3000/PMH5000: Press the FX1/2 IN switch to activate
the effects processor.
PMH1000/PMH3000: Turn the PROGRAM control to select
an effects algorithm (preset number starts flashing). Press
this control to activate the effect selected.
PMH1000: The effects processor is operative all the
time. Adjust the effect intensity for the MAIN or
MON signals with controls or respectively.
PMH5000: The PMH5000 has two separate effects
processors, which can be used independently of one
another. Enable one or both processors with the FX1/2 IN
buttons.
PMH3000/PMH5000: The FX 1/2 TO MON 1 control allows
you to set the intensity of the multi-effects processors in
the monitor mix. No effect is sent to the monitor mix when
this control is set fully counter-clockwise.
PMH1000: The FX TO MON control performs the same
function as on the PMH3000 and PMH5000.
The FX 1/2 TO MON 2 control allows you to determine the
effect intensity of the multi-effects processor in the monitor
2 mix. No effect is sent to the monitor 2 mix with this control
turned fully counter-clockwise.
The FX 1/2 TO MAIN control allows you to determine the
effect intensity of the multi-effects processor in the main
mix. No effect is sent to the main mix with this control
turned fully counter-clockwise.
PMH1000: The FX TO MAIN control performs the same
function as on the PMH3000 and PMH5000.
2.4 Main and monitor section
The SURROUND control determines the effect intensity.
This is a built-in effect, which widens the
stereo panorama, thus making the sound
more lively and transparent.
Press the XPQ TO MAIN switch to activate this effect.
Pressing the AFL switch (after-fader listening) activates
the solo function. If AFL is on for the corresponding channel
in the main section, you will only hear the signal from this
channel. Its volume can be adjusted with the fader.
Switching AFL on has no effect on the main or monitor mix,
as long as you don’t move the fader. In this way, you can
monitor one or several selected signals via the PHONES/
CTRL jack . When AFL is on, the corresponding control
LED illuminates.
The PMH1000 does not have an AFL function.
PMH1000: FX SEND fader.
PMH3000: FX fader.
PMH5000: FX 1/2 fader.
This is the master send fader for the signal routed to the
effects processor and to the FX SEND output (see
also and ).
