MACKIE 808S POWERED 8-CHANNEL STEREO MIXER 1200W
The point of a powered mixer is power, right? That's why there are real FR Series High-Current amplifiers inside every Mackie PPM? Series mixer. They crank out real wattage at any impedance, sound good even when pushed into clipping, and are legendary for their reliability.
Mackie also built in the industry's first 32-bit digital EMAC? effects contained in a powered mixer. Developed specifically for PPM mixers, the EMAC is equivalent to many outboard effects processors, and offers 16 user-controllable, stunning effects. And since graphic equalizers are always in a powered mixer's output path, these were over-engineered with expensive, discrete components.
BUILT LIKE ONLY MACKIE CAN
The PPM 808S has everything you'll need for the gig. Each of the six stereo channel strips feature XLR mic and 1/4" TRS line inputs, TRS insert jacks, monitor and effects send, 3-band EQ, and an input Trim control with individual level-set LEDs. And you wont need external effects, thanks to the EMAC 32-bit precision digital effects processor?which sounds great and is as easy to use as a stompbox. There's even an Effects to Monitor control, so you can give your stage monitors a "wet" mix, totally independent of the Mains. The output section boasts two of our 600-watt FR (Fast Recovery) power amps, dual 9-band graphic equalizers, 75Hz rumble reduction filters, a switchable soft-knee compressor, and output level metering.
CLEAN, ARTICULATE MIXING
Above all else, the PPM Series mixers sound great. Often copied, but seldom duplicated, the high-headroom, low-noise mic preamps are legendary the world over for their superior sound quality. That's why they are used in the PPM Series?clean, quiet, superb. Each preamp channel has its own input Trim control, which provides up to 40dB microphone gain, 20dB line-level gain, or a full 20dB of attenuation to "pad" those really hot signals. Channels also feature level-set LEDs for easy visual input gain adjustment?just speak, sing, or yell into the mic and adjust the Trim control until the little green LED blinks. Time to dial in a little channel EQ?
ACTIVE 3-BAND EQUALIZATION
The mixers dont limit your equalization options to bass and treble. All PPM? Series mixers features no-crosstalk, phase-accurate, 3-band EQs on each channel, with usable center frequencies as follows: 12kHz shelving high-frequency EQ (?15dB), 2.5kHz peaking mid-frequency EQ (?12dB), and 80Hz shelving low-frequency EQ (?15dB).
ONBOARD 32-BIT DIGITAL EFFECTS
The pi?ce de r?sistance of the PPM Series is its onboard EMAC? 32-bit digital effects processor, which offers a plethora of dynamic digital effects. You can select any one of 16 custom-designed algorithms ranging from small room reverb to "out-of-this-world" phase shifting?and they're all controllable and easy to operate. Both the Monitor Master and Main Master rotary controls have corresponding EFX controls, so you can mix your effects into the monitors as well as the main outputs.
BUILT MACKIE TOUGH
All PPM mixers boast a rugged composite-molded case. Mackie has been building state-of-the-art mixers and power amplifiers since day one. So it was just a matter of time, you might even say it was inevitable, that they'd combine the two.
Now you can have it all, Mackie mixer, Mackie digital effects and Mackie power amps, all in one convenient package?the PPM Series.
