POWERED MIXER

Thank you for purchasing the Peavey MP600! The MP600 is a seven-channel mixer with a variety of built-in features, including a dedicated line input channel (summed input for a tape deck or other line level device), 32-bit digital reverb, channel and master equalizers and a 80 W power amplifier, all housed in a rugged topbox package.

This owners manual explains the MP 600’s features and its proper operation. Each section of the mixer is separated into numbered illustrations. In each illustration you will be directed to a controls’ explanation of operation by its corresponding reference number.

FEATURES:

Seven total input channels

Reverb control on each channel

Six mono input channels

One mono (summed) input channel with stereo RCA and 1/4" jacks

Two-band equalizer on each channel

1/4" and XLR inputs (Channels 1 — 6 only)

Master effects output (1/4" send jack)

Main output (1/4" send jack)

Master four-band equalizer

RCA tape record output (summed)

Master level and reverb controls

80 W power amp

POWER

This section describes the proper application of AC power to your MP 600. To ensure the safety of you and your MP 600, please pay close attention to any designated cautions.

1.POWER SWITCH

Used to turn AC mains power on or off.

2.FUSE

The fuse is located within the cap of the fuseholder. If the fuse should fail, IT MUST BE

REPLACED WITH THE SAME TYPE AND VALUE IN ORDER TO AVOID DAMAGE TO THE EQUIPMENT AND TO PREVENT VOIDING THE WARRANTY. If the amp repeatedly blows fuses, it should be taken to a qualified service center for repair.

WARNING: THE FUSE SHOULD ONLY BE REPLACED WHEN THE POWER CORD HAS BEEN DISCONNECTED FROM ITS POWER SOURCE.

3.REMOVABLE AC POWER CORD

This receptacle is for the IEC line cord (included), which provides AC power to the unit. Connect the line cord to this connector and to a properly grounded AC supply. Damage to the equipment may occur if an improper line voltage is used. (See voltage marking on unit.) Never remove or cut the ground pin of the line cord plug. This unit is supplied with a properly rated line cord. When lost or damaged, replace this cord with one of the proper ratings.

(For UK Only) As the colours of the wires in the mains lead of this apparatus may not correspond with the coloured markings identifying the terminals in your plug, proceed as follows: • The wire which is coloured green and yellow must be connected to the terminal which is marked by the letter E or by the earth symbol, or coloured green or green and yellow. • The wire which is coloured blue must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the letter N or coloured black. • The wire which is coloured brown must be connected the terminal which is marked with the letter L or the coloured red.

SPEAKER CONNECTIONS

This section will help you locate the two speaker output jacks on the rear of your MP 600. Though there are two output jacks, they are mono (parallel) and not stereo. (2 — 8 ohms speakers)

WARNING: NEVER ALLOW YOUR TOTAL SPEAKER IMPEDANCE TO DROP BELOW THE INDICATED MINIMUM IMPEDANCE.

4.SPEAKER OUTPUTS

Two parallel 1/4" jacks are provided at the output of the power amplifier. Minimum speaker

impedance (minimum load) is 4 ohms.

.

CHANNEL (1— 6) FEATURES

The following section describes Channels 1 — 6. Each of these input channels are identical. Some features listed below can be found on Channel 7 as well.

5.MIC INPUT

 

XLR balanced low impedance channel input optimized for a

 

microphone or other low impedance source. Pin 2 is the positive

10

input. This connector has +15V phantom power supply on pins 2

 

and 3 at all times. (Pin 1 is the ground reference.)

 

WARNING: SOME PRODUCTS, INCLUDING SOME WIRELESS

 

MICROPHONE UNITS, CAN BE DAMAGED BY PHANTOM

 

POWER. CHECK THE OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS OF THE

 

PRODUCT YOU WISH TO CONNECT TO THE MIC INPUT

 

BEFORE CONNECTING. PHANTOM POWER DOESN’T

 

AFFECT LOW IMPEDANCE DYNAMIC MICROPHONES.

6.

LINE INPUT

 

1/4" unbalanced input that accepts line level sources equipped

 

with a 1/4" plug (TS). The two inputs (XLR and 1/4") cannot be

 

used simultaneously.

7.

GAIN

 

Sets the level of the individual channel in the mix.

8.

REVERB

 

Sets the level to internal reverb from channel and must be

 

used in conjunction with the master reverb level. It is post gain and

 

will be affected by the Gain adjustment (7). The Reverb control

 

also determines the level of signal sent to the Effects Output (14).

9.

LOW EQ

 

A shelving type of active tone control that varies the bass

5

frequency levels ±15 dB at 100 Hz. It will add depth to thin signals,

or clean up muddy ones.

 

10.HIGH EQ

A shelving type of active tone control that varies the treble frequency level ±15 dB at 10 kHz. It is designed to remove noise or to add brilliance to the signal, depending on the quality of the source.

CHANNEL SEVEN FEATURES

Channel 7 has two 1/4" line inputs and RCA tape inputs. These inputs are summed. They add (sum) the left and right signals of a stereo source such as a tape or CD player.

11.LINE AND TAPE INPUTS

RCA and 1/4" jacks accept a stereo input from a CD player, tape deck or keyboard. These inputs are summed internally into a mono signal. See page 10 for operational note.

CAUTION: Care should be taken not to record on a deck that has its outputs connected to the line/tape input jacks and have the Channel 7 Gain control turned up, or Feedback will occur. You may disconnect the tape inputs on the MP 600 if recording on the same tapedeck. Or, you may use a separate tape deck to play and record at the same time.

MASTER FEATURES

12.TAPE [REC] OUTPUTS

RCA output jacks that provide a monaural signal the left and right inputs of a stereo tape deck. This is the main signal taken after the Master Level (16) and the Master EQ.

6

13.REVERB FOOTSWITCH

Provided for connection of the optional remote footswitch. The footswitch is used to activate/defeat the reverb. You may use the ON/OFF single-button switch #0051000.

14.EFFECTS OUTPUT

Plugging into this mono (TS) 1/4" output disconnects the internal reverb, allowing you to utilize external effects devices. In order to return the signal from the external effects unit, use the summing inputs of Channel 7.

OPERATION NOTE: When using Channel 7 as an effects return, it is important that you turn the Channel 7 Reverb control all the way down (“0” position). Failure to do so may cause oscillation or other strange effects. This is due to feeding signal returned from the effects loop back into the effects loop resulting in a feedback.

15.MAIN OUTPUT

1/4" unbalanced output that can be used as a source for an external amplifier/speaker system, feed to other mixers or a tape deck. This signal is taken after the master fourband equalizer.

16.MASTER LEVEL CONTROL

Controls the overall volume level of the system.

17.MASTER REVERB LEVEL CONTROL

Controls the amount of reverb that will be heard in the main mix.

18.POWER LED

Illuminates when AC power is being supplied to the mixer.

19.MASTER EQUALIZATION

Provides ±12 dB equalization at each center frequency. EQ boost is obtained by moving a particular EQ band’s control above the “0” position. EQ cut is obtained by moving a particular EQ band’s control below the “0” position. The following list describes each EQ control and its center frequency.

Low - shelving type - 40 Hz Low Mid - peak type - 300 Hz High Mid - peak type - 2 kHz High - shelving type - 10 kHz

OPERATION NOTE: This equalizer is designed to provide room equalization, feedback control and system tone control. No amount of equalization will correct the response curve of a poor loudspeaker. Always begin with all controls in the “0” position and avoid excessively boosting large segments of the audio passband, which could limit the system’s dynamic range.
