Behringer PMH-5000

Ultra-Compact 2 x 400-Watt 20-Channel Powered Mixer with Dual 24-Bit Multi-FX Processor and FBQ Feedback Detection System.
The PMH5000 is the top-of-the-line console-style powered mixer. This powerhouse features 20 channels (12 mono + 4 stereo), plus stereo tape returns, two 24-bit/46 kHz effects processors with 99 great-sounding VIRTUALIZER presets each, two monitor paths and extremely flexible I/O options. It’s jam-packed with everything you need for the most demanding sound reinforcement gigs like a 2 x 400-Watt COOLAUDIO amplifier to drive your FOH and/or monitor speakers.

With the revolutionary COOLAUDIO amplifier technology you get enormous power, incredible sonic performance and super-light weight delivered in an ultra-compact mixer that is nearly half the depth and weight of conventional powered mixers.

Adding to the list of “big-mixer” features are: our awesome XPQ 3D surround effect, stereo 7-band graphic EQ with FBQ Feedback Detection, dual 12-segment LED output level meters as well as faders for precise level control of mono, main 1, monitor 1 & 2 and FX1 & 2 send outputs. The dedicated mono output with adjustable low-pass filter can be used to feed an external subwoofer. Plus, there are BEHRINGER’s Speaker Processing function, stereo power amp inserts and a Phones/Ctrl R output with dedicated level control for headphones or powered monitors.

The PMH5000 features 12 balanced low-impedance mic inputs with state-of-the-art IMP “Invisible” Mic Preamps plus balanced high-impedance line inputs for direct connection of line sources or high-output instruments. Its full-featured channel strips include input level trim controls, signal and clip LED indicators, ultra-musical 3-band EQs with semi-parametric mid control, dual monitor sends, dual FX sends, mute and PFL functions plus high-quality 60-mm logarithmic faders for exact signal level control. Mono channels also include low-cut filters, inserts for connecting external processors and A/B switching for selecting the ¼” TRS or RCA input connectors (channels 13 – 16). The separate CD/Tape input lets you connect a line-level stereo source and the standby switch instantly mutes channels 1 – 12, so you can play music during your breaks without having to change the fader positions and lose your mix. The super-rugged carrying handle makes it easy to transport, while professional speaker connectors (compatible to Neutrik® Speakon®) ensure outstanding performance and reliable connection.
