EUROPOWER PMP1000/PMP3000/PMP5000
1 INTRODUCTION
Congratulations! With the PMP1000/PMP3000/PMP5000 you
have acquired a state-of-the-art power mixer that sets new
standards. Right from the very start it has been our goal to
design a revolutionary unit that can be used for a wide variety of
applications. Indeed, this overwhelming power mixer gives you
plenty of functionality and a broad range of connection and
expansion options.
Your PMP features our revolutionary COOLAUDIO amplifier
technology, which reduces the weight and size of the unit
considerably and ensures extremely high output power.
Further advantages are the integrated Voice Canceller that
removes vocal passages from playbacks, the FBQ function,
which detects feedback frequencies, and the Speaker
Processing function for loudspeaker alignment—all with a
resolution of 24 bits and 40 kHz. Plus, our tried and tested
XENYX Mic Preamps give you crystal-clear audio free of noise
and distortion when using microphones.
BEHRINGER is a company with its roots in professional
recording studio technology. For many years we have been
successful in developing products for studio and live use. These
include microphones and 19" units of all types (compressors,
enhancers, noise gates, tube processors, headphone amplifiers,
digital effects, DI boxes, etc.), monitor and P.A. speakers and
professional live and recording mixers. Our entire technical know-
how has gone into your PMP power mixer.
1.1 Before you get started
1.1.1 Shipment
Your PMP was carefully packed at the factory and the
packaging is designed to protect the unit from rough handling.
Nevertheless, we recommend that you carefully examine the
packaging and its contents for any signs of physical damage
which may have occurred during transit.
If the unit is damaged, please do NOT return it to
BEHRINGER, but notify your dealer and the shipping
company immediately. Otherwise, claims for
damage or replacement may not be granted.
We recommend that you use a flight case, so as to
give your power mixer optimum protection during
use or transport.
Always use the original packing carton to prevent
damage during storage or transport.
Make sure that children cannot play unsupervised
with the device or its packaging.
Please ensure proper disposal of all packing
materials.

cooling and, to avoid overheating, please do not place the
EUROPOWER near radiators, etc.

IMPORTANT NOTES CONCERNING INSTALLATION
