Massive Power—Ultra Lightweight

Most powered mixers in this class tease
you with maybe 100 or 200 Watts of output
power. Not this bad boy—it comes armed
with 500 Watts of the cleanest output
you’ll nd anywhere! Our revolutionary
Class-D amplier and Switch-Mode
Power Supply technologies keep the
weight down by eliminating the heavy
transformers and massive heat sinks found
in traditional amps.

Top-of-the-Line KLARK TEKNIK Eects

Our sister company, KLARK TEKNIK,
recognized the world over for their
high-end signal processors, provided
PMP’s FX engines, which feature some of
the best-sounding studio-grade presets in
theindustry.

Stop Feedback Dead in its Tracks

Every PMP Series powered mixer
features our FBQ Feedback Detection
System. Fast, dependable, and super-easy
to use, just press the FBQ In switch and
the graphic EQ sliders light up showing
which frequencies are causing the problem.
With BEHRINGER FBQ, you can say goodbye
to feedbackforever!

for wireless performance right-out-of-the­box. Just add our ULTRALINK ULM100USB

dedicated USB-style port on the mixer.
