| Marketing Information | The PPM Series of powered mixers are the latest and toughest graduates of Mackie's mixer boot camp. Each of these mixers has a High-Current, Fast-Recovery power amp inside it. In fact, the whole PPM Series is built to provide consistent, powerful performance even in the most adverse conditions. It sounds clean and strong even when it's been run all night into low impedances. You get a massive toroid transformer and two huge storage capacitors with 720 joules of energy storage capacity; your mixer keeps kickin' even when energy is scarce. Other features include a break switch for muting tracks in between sets without messing up sound levels, soft-knee compression, rumble reduction and an EFX wide switch for precise effects control. There's even an SCR crowbar circuit for speaker protection. The five individual mixers in the PPM Series come in different configurations for a choice of mono or stereo and mic/line channels. All of them come equipped with dual graphic equalizers and built-in digital effects, and all of them deliver a level of performance and endurance you've never believed possible before! |
| Features & Benefits |
- The PPM Series 808S features:
|
- 1200 real watts/2 ohms from twin 600-watt FR Series High-Current power amps
|
- Power amps switchable as stereo mains or main plus monitor
|
- 8 mic/line channels with master phantom power
|
- Stereo line inputs on channels 7 and 8
|
| |
- Active 3-band EQ and stereo pan control on each channel
|
- True stereo 9-band graphic EQ on mains
|
- 9-band graphic EQ on monitor
|
- Rugged injection-molded chassis resists impacts that would destroy a rat-fur-covered wood box powered mixer. Built-in handle can be used by folks who don't have the foggiest idea of what injection molding is.
|
- A real Mackie mic/line mixer section! Based on our world-famous MicroSeries 1202-VLZ and enhanced with new mic preamps and about a gazillion ingenious extra features.
|
- Rugged, sealed rotary controls resist dust, moisture and other contamination.
|
- Expensive, studio-grade, 9-band program equalizers for mains and monitor that utilize multiple summing amplifiers and precision infinite feedback band-pass filters, which yield superior linear-phase and combining properties. What this means is our graphic EQs are exceptionally low-noise, low-distortion, sound great, and don't suffer from any nasty phase-shift problems.
|
- Level-setting control & LED on every PPM mixer channel-makes setting input levels a snap.
|
- Mil-spec fiberglass circuit boards (instead of cheap phenolic) resist physical impact.
|
- Amp routing switch assigns power amps to mains or mains + monitors.
|
- Hefty 10,000µf storage capacitors for high peak power reserves.
|
- Massive toroid transformer for high current output.
|
- Mega-cool die-cast heat sink. 1-piece die-cast heat sink is custom-cast for maximum heat dissipation and minimum car upholstery destruction. Black coating improves efficiency by 15%. Running Man figure improves coolness-factor by 150%.
