FOREWORD
Dear Customer,
Welcome to the team of
EUROPOWER users and
thank you very much for
expressing your confidence in BEHRINGER
products by purchasing
this power mixer.
It is one of my most
pleasant tasks to write
this letter to you, because
it is the culmination of
many months of hard
work delivered by our
engineering team to reach
a very ambitious goal:
to present you two
outstanding power
mixers that give you
maximum flexibility and
performance with a unique sound character and broad range of
striking functions.
The task to design the new PMP series certainly meant a great
deal of responsibility, which we assumed by focusing on you,
the discerning user and musician. It also meant a lot of work and
night shifts to accomplish this goal. But it was fun, too. Developing
a product usually brings a lot of people together, and what a
great feeling it is when everybody who participated in such a
project can be proud of what weve achieved.
It is our philosophy to share our joy with you, because you are
the most important member of the BEHRINGER team. With your
highly competent suggestions for new products youve greatly
contributed to shaping our company and making it successful. In
return, we guarantee you uncompromising quality as well as
excellent technical and audio properties at an extremely
favorable price. All of this will enable you to fully unfold your
creativity without being hampered by budget constraints.
We are often asked how we can make it to produce such highgrade devices at such unbelievably low prices. The answer is
quite simple: its you, our customers! Many satisfied customers
means large sales volumes enabling us to get better conditions
of purchase for components, etc. Isnt it only fair to pass this
benefit back to you? Because we know that your success is
our success, too!
I would like to thank all people whose help on Project PMP has
made it all possible. Everybody has made very personal
contributions, starting from the designers of the unit to the many
staff members in our company and finally to you, the user of
BEHRINGER products.
+ We would like to point out that high volume levels
may damage your hearing and/or your headphones.

controls fully counter-clockwise before switching
on the device. Always make sure that the
appropriate volume is set.

1. INTRODUCTION
Congratulations! With the PMP mixer you have acquired a stateof-the-art power mixer that sets new standards. Right from the
very start it has been our goal to design a revolutionary unit that
can be used for a wide variety of applications. And indeed, this
overwhelming power mixer gives you plenty of functionality and
a broad range of connection and expansion options.
Your power mixer features our revolutionary Coolaudio amplifier
technology that reduces weight and size of your device and
provides extreme high output power.
Further advantages are the integrated Voice Canceller that
removes vocal tracks from a playback, the FBQ function for
feedback detection and the Speaker Processing function for
adjusting the frequency response of any loudspeakerand
everything with 24-bit/40 kHz resolution.
The mixing consoles of the PMP series feature a state of the art,
integrated switch-mode power supply (SMPS). One of the great
advantages is that (compared to conventional circuits) due to its
much greater efficiency, it consumes much less energy than a
conventional power supply unit.
BEHRINGER is a company with its roots in professional recording
studio technology. For many years we have been successful in
developing products for studio and live use. These include
microphones and 19" units of all types (compressors, enhancers,
noise gates, tube processors, headphone amplifiers, digital
effects, DI boxes, etc.), monitor and P.A. speakers as well as
professional live and recording mixers. Our entire technical knowhow has gone into your PMP power mixer.
