EUROPOWER PMH1000/PMH3000/PMH5000
3. DIGITAL EFFECTS PROCESSOR
PMH1000: MON SEND fader.
PMH3000/PMH5000: MON1/2 fader.
These faders are used to set the monitor output volume
(see also and ).
PMH1000: The main mix allows you to control the volume
from the Main 1 output with both faders.
PMH3000/PMH5000: The MAIN 1 fader controls the volume
of the EUROPOWER. The main signal is also provided at the
MAIN 1 output (see also ).
PMH3000/PMH5000: The MONO fader controls the mono
mix signal (see also ).
PMH5000: The SUB FILTER filters out frequencies above
the selected setting, so that only low frequencies are sent
to an (active) subwoofer via the MONO OUT ). Set this
switch to “On” to activate the filter.
PMH5000: The SUB FREQ control determines the cut-off
frequency for the subwoofer output. This value can be
adjusted from 30 to 200 Hz.
The PHONS/CTRL R control adjusts the headphone or
control room volume (see also ).
PMH3000/PMH5000: The MAIN 2 control determines the
volume at the MAIN 2 output (see also ), which is the
same signal as at MAIN 1, but with extra output jacks and
separate volume control.
PMH3000/PMH5000: With the CD/TAPE IN control you can
adjust the volume of the line signal present at the CD/TAPE
INPUT . Use the PFL switch to monitor the signal.
PMH1000: With the CD/TAPE RET fader you can adjust
the line signal applied to the CD/TAPE INPUT . Use the
CD/TAPE MUTE switch to mute the channel.
2.4.1 Connectors
Use the CD/TAPE INPUT jacks (RCA) to connect an
external stereo signal, such as a CD player, tape deck or
other line-level sources.
The VOICE CANCELLER filters vocal-specific
frequencies from the CD/TAPE INPUT signal. This
function can be used for karaoke, i.e. you can
remove the vocals from a song and then sing
along with the music yourself.
The CD/TAPE OUTPUT provides the line level stereo signal
(e.g. for a DAT recorder).
If the CD/TAPE OUT signal is connected to a
recording machine whose output signal is returned
to the CD/TAPE IN, feedback can occur when you
activate the record function on the recording
machine. So, disconnect the CD/TAPE IN from the
recording machine before you start recording or
set the CD/TAPE input signal to zero!
PMH1000: The MAIN OUT jacks allow you to send the main
line level signal to an external amplifier, when, for example,
you want to use the mixer and effects section. The
PMH3000 and PMH5000 have two separately controllable
line level MAIN outputs (MAIN 1/2).
Connect your monitor power amps or active monitor
speakers to the MON 1/2 SEND to monitor the signal mix
created with the MON controls or to route it to the musicians
on stage.
The POWER AMP INSERT is used to feed an external
signal to the power stage of the mixer. The AMP MODE
setting does not affect the signal.
The FOOTSWITCH jack is for a standard footswitch. You
can activate an “effect bypass”, thereby muting the effects
processor. Use a dual foot switch for the PMH5000, so
that you can enable/disable FX1 and FX2 independently of
each other. In this case, the tip of the 1/4" plug controls
FX1, and the ring FX2.
PMH3000/PMH5000: The MONO OUT is for connecting a
subwoofer. The PMH5000 has the additional possibility of
setting the low-frequency range for the subwoofer.
Use the SUB FILTER control to adjust the frequency.
The FX SEND connector can be used to route the FX
SEND signal from the input channel, for example, to the
input of an external effects device. Since the PMH5000
has two FX controls per input signal (see ), both FX
SEND 1+2 are present at one jack.
Please note: The SEND signal is in parallel with the
FX SEND jacks and with the effects processor, so
that both can be controlled together by one control.
For the FX signals, use a 1/4" stereo plug connected
as follows: FX1 = tip; FX2 = ring
The PHONS/CTRL connector allows you to connect a
pair of stereo headphones or an (active) monitor speaker.
2.5 Rear panel
The mains connection is via a standard IEC receptacle. An
appropriate power cord is supplied with the unit.
FUSE HOLDER. Before connecting the unit to the mains,
ensure that the voltage setting matches your local voltage.
Blown fuses should only be replaced by fuses of the same
type and rating. Please also read the information given in
the “SPECIFICATIONS”.
Use the POWER switch to put your PMH into operation.
The POWER switch should always be in the “Off” position
before connecting your unit to the mains.
Please note: The POWER switch does not fully
disconnect the unit from the mains. Unplug the
power cord completely when the unit is not used
for prolonged periods of time.
SERIAL NUMBER. Please take the time to fill in and return
the warranty card within 14 days after the date of purchase,
so as to benefit from our extended warranty. Or register
online at www.behringer.com.
This is where you find the cooling fan of the unit.
The PMH5000 has two cooling fans.
OUTPUT A (LEFT) provides either the left stereo main
signal or the monitor signal in mono, depending on the
operating mode selected (see ). NEVER use this output
in bridged mono mode.
OUTPUT B (RIGHT/BRIDGE) provides either the right
stereo main signal, the main mix signal (mono) or the bridged
mono signal, depending on the operating mode selected.
In BRIDGE mode always connect only one
loudspeaker with an impedance of at least 8
ΩΩ
ΩΩ
Ω to
the OUTPUT B jack! NEVER use OUTPUT A in BRIDGE
mode!
In all other operating modes the impedance of the
connected loudspeaker must not fall below 4
ΩΩ
ΩΩ
Ω.
3. DIGITAL EFFECTS PROCESSOR
A special feature of your PMH power mixer its built-in
multi-effects processor that features the same audio
quality as our renowned studio-grade VIRTUALIZER
PRO DSP2024P. The PMH5000 even has two effects
processors, each of them with 99 different studio effects such
as reverb, chorus, flanger, delay, vocal distortion as well as
various effects combinations.
CATHEDRAL: Simulates the dense, long reverberation of a
large cathedral, which is appropriate for solo instruments or
vocals in slow pieces. Choose between two variations.
PLATE: Simulates the sound of plate reverberation and hence
is a classic for drums (snare) and vocals. The second variation
features more high-end sparkle than the first.
