Overview
The PM2200‑3 is the largest member of the PowerMate family. It is by far the most powerful and best equipped compact powered mixer on the market.
It incorporates not less than six dedicated audio devices into one compact frame: mixing console, two effects units, graphic equalizer, USB audio interface and power amplifier. Each of them is on the highest quality level as you would expect from a stand‑alone device. The PowerMate is a real all‑rounder for almost all applications with maximum feature set at minimum size.
The mixing section starts with 22 lowest noise, discrete microphone preamps. 6 auxiliary busses, two of them switchable pre/post fader, allow high flexibility for monitoring. The two effects processors offer 100 factory presets, including the already legendary PowerMate‑reverbs. Further, each preset can be edited and stored to 20 User memories.
The built in USB audio interface shares 4 playback and four recording channels simultaneously with a PC or Mac, please see information on available drivers, following studio standard 24‑bit / 96 kHz. An additional MIDI interface allows integration of instruments, such as keyboards. A license for Steinbergs Cubase software is part of the package.
The 11 band stereo graphic equalizer can be routed flexible to master or monitor channels.
The amplifier is extremely powerful with 2 x 1000 W / 4 Ohms (RMS). Due to modern switching mode power supply technology and a class‑D output stage, it’s very efficient and lightweight, too. An optional speaker protection allows limitation of long‑term power without giving up dynamics.
- Intuitive mixer with 22 input channels (18 Mic/Line + 4 Mic/Stereo-Line)
- Very powerful and reliable amplifier with 2 x 1.000 Watts / 4 Ohms
- 2 High-Quality editable effects, 100 factory and 20 user presets
