easy and a ordable way to give live

or recording musicians/vocalists what

they really want – “more me!” Part of

the P16 Personal Monitoring System,

the P16-I input module can be used

with any analog source, and convert

up to 16 analog inputs into 24-bit

digital audio to send to your P16-M

Personal Monitoring Mixers. The P16-I

is also equipped with ADAT optical

inputs that auto-detect and give priority to incoming signals.

Fast and easy to set up, a basic system can be installed and con gured in a

matter of minutes – and the system can be expanded to adapt to changing

needs. The POWERPLAY P16 Personal Monitoring System puts total control

of the monitor mix into the artist’s hands, and when they can hear exactly

what they want and need to hear – their best performance is unleashed!

16-Channel 19'' Input Module with
Analog and ADAT* Optical Inputs

ADAT-Ready

The P16-I includes a 2 x 8-channel ADAT optical input with auto detect and priority select for use
with our existing ADAT equipment. Additionally, 16 balanced, high-headroom TRS audio inputs
can be employed to send audio from analog outputs to your P16-Ms. You can choose from 4 gain
positions per channel via a convenient onboard switch, and visually monitor by means of the status
LEDs on each channel. Sample rates of 44.1 or 48 kHz are supported by the digital inputs, providing
ultra-low latency of less than 1 millisecond. Standard Cat 5e cabling delivers power and signals
for up to 6 P16-M Personal Monitoring Mixers, or you can use the included external supplies with
each P16-M. Plus, the P16-I features an internal auto-ranging power supply for maximum  exibility
(100–240V~), noise-free audio, superior transient response and low power consumption.

ULTRANET – Seamless Integration

The world-renowned engineers at KLARK TEKNIK, MIDAS, TURBOSOUND and BEHRINGER have all
come together to create something truly innovative that will change live and studio work ow forever
– ULTRANET. This revolutionary technology seamlessly transmits up to 16 independent channels of
24-bit digital audio and control data via a single CAT5 cable between compatible digital devices
– including mixers, I/O stage boxes, powered loudspeakers and personal monitoring systems.
Advantages realized through ULTRANET digital networking, versus traditional analog methods:
audio signals are impervious to Radio Frequency Interference (RFI); signal crosstalk is eliminated; and
ease of setup translates directly into signi cant time saved during installation. ULTRANET e ectuates
a powerful digital eco-system that gives you unparalleled control over every element of your audio
production environment from one convenient location.
