they really want—“more me!” P16-M
Personal Mixers lets each performer take
control of what they hear, allowing the
engineer to concentrate on providing the
audience with the best possible listening
experience. 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.
Tech-Free Zone
The P16-M’s simple user interface
makes it easy for even non-techies
to dial-in the perfect monitor mix.
For example, let’s say the electric guitar
is too loud in the lead vocalist’s mix;
they simply press the appropriate channel
button (the one labeled E. GTR) and turn
the Volume control to lower the guitar
level in their mix. They can also adjust
Pan (left to right mix), EQ (Bass, Mid with
sweepable Freq control and Treble),
and much more. All of these adjustments
can be made without a ecting anyone
else’s personal mix.
