FUNCTIONS
High Pass, Low Pass & Notch Filter (effect) on each PGM
On the PMC-CX each PGM has a filter effect section
with a high pass, low pass and (when pressed
together) a notch filter. These filters are used to alter the
frequency response of a given audio signal in either an
extreme or subtle manner
Master Isolator with Antiphase
On the master output of the PMC-CX we have
incorporated one of Carl's favorite Vestax units, the
DCR-1200, a 3 Band Isolator with Antiphase. Using
the master isolator allows finer control over the cut
and or boost of the low, mid and high ranges when the
effect is set to on. Obviously when set to off, only the
PGM features will effect the sound. When combined
with antiphase it is possible to create sensational
reverb like effects over the whole mix. Antiphase
flips the isolator curve upside down on both the low and
mid frequency ranges (there is no need for a high
antiphase as it is out of our human hearing range).
Suitable for all DJs
With more than enough creative room for even the
most experimental DJs the PMC-CX is truly suitable for
almost any type of DJ. In addition to the features
above, there are a number of other features that make
this mixer very user friendly whether you are a hobby
DJ, a professional touring DJ or a club install user.
The large analogue VU meters allow you to easily
view the output level and safely stay within a suitable
range. The large open design of this mixer means
that you can accurately and quickly get to all features in
any environment (dark or light) even if you are
endowed with big fingers. For install users the booth,
master out and input levels can be attenuated keeping
expensive sounds systems safe from over zealous
users. For those users who need scratch capabilities (Hip
Hop, drum & bass etc) the cross fader (VCA PCV
type fader) curve is adjustable from a steep to gentle
slope. The booth output section has its own 3-Band EQ
and the headphone section has its own 2-Band EQ.
Add in the MIC features and this mixer is perfect for
Mobile DJs who desire the quality of this top line
model from Vestax. In all, the PMC-CX was
designed by a great mixer to be used as a great mixer.
