Ultra-light and rack-mountable, the Mackie
PPM1012 professional powered desktop mixer features two
ridiculously robust power amps for mains and/or monitors (800W + 800W).
With 1600 watts of system power, this mixer provides all the raw power
that you need. Things can get pretty intense out there, and your gear
needs to be able keep up the pace. Mackie custom designed the PPM1012
with Class-D amps, which are cool-running and boast maximum efficiency,
keeping your sound pumping until they start kicking people out. They
had to include Mackie's proven Fast Recovery circuitry, eliminating the
risk of pesky amp latching. The result is a distortion free mix even
when pushing peak levels. The built-in limiter can go toe-to-toe with
the most popular outboard stereo limiters used in live sound today,
protecting your speakers from damage. The limiter's attack and release
times are specifically selected to address full-bandwidth music and
will not muddy things up by adding any unwanted pumping. PPM mixers are
surprisingly lightweight, but tremendously powerful. You can push the
PPM1012 to its maximum output, distortion free!
"Gig Ready" Effects
Dual (as in 2) all-new RMFX+ (Running Man FX) effects processors bring
"gig-ready," useable effects to your mixes. Why scroll through hundreds
of bizarre effects, like "ghost ambience?" Yeah, like anyone even knows
what that means. Or how about winners like "delay+phaser2," which
you'll never use in a million years. Those other mixers will leave your
fingers raw from all the scrolling you have to do. The RMFX+ processor
features 24 solid FX that are known for their utility and usability.
Small, medium and large room reverbs with the choice of a warm or
bright characteristic put your mix in the right space. Simple, rich
choruses and an array of practical delays with common amounts of
repeats enable you to create professional mixes without requiring a
two-hour sound check. Also, the RMFX+ is the first onboard processor to
feature a user tap function. So if you want to use a delay, but our
preset delay time doesn't work, you can tap it in instantly! Basically,
we've delivered a full rack of gear at your fingertips that is easy to
master, allowing you to look and sound really good at your next gig.
Really, really good.
Absolutely Armored
Armored and ready for action, the Mackie PPM1012 is encased in solid
metal, protecting it from years of abuse and one too many spilled beers
(seriously, spilled beer makes us sad). The integrated front handle
allows you to easily pick it up and get going, and it is rack-mountable
for added rigidity and security.
The Right Tools for the
Job
Most powered mixers out there have either a limited set of mixing
tools-keeping your mix decidedly average-or they cram in a
mind-boggling amount of lame effects that you would never use. Every
professional carries the right tools for the job, so the Mackie PPM1012
comes with a great-sounding, highly useable toolkit:
Premium Mackie preamplifiers ensure transparent,
low-noise/high-headroom characteristics right at the front of the
mixer. The PPM1012 offers 8 mic/line channels with trusted Mackie
preamplifiers.
True 48V phantom power allows every condenser mic to
perform at its full potential.
Legendary 3-band active EQ with mid-sweep straight off the
tremendously popular VLZ3 mixer series. Sweetening any channel is a
breeze.
Individual mono channel inserts allow you to use your
favorite compressor or other outboard processing on a critical
instrument or voice. Don't leave the lead singer hanging! They are also
great direct outs for recording.
Dedicated in-line compressors (ch. 1-6) bring simple but
sweet dynamics with the single twist of a knob.
Dual graphic EQs are provided for both mains and monitors.
These EQs feature tight, constant-Q Filters that effect only the
frequency range you've intended, unlike many inexpensive built-in
graphic EQs that will remain nameless.
Simple stuff like useable main and monitor output metering
make a huge difference in your mix. Sorry, but 5 LED meters at the
output doesn't tell you that you're about to clip. Our
high-resolution12-segment meters enable more visibility of your signal,
and the super quick response of the meters allows what you see to
translate quickly and easily to what you hear.
