Rugged injection-molded chassis resists impacts that would destroy a rat-fur-covered wood box powered mixer. Built-in handle can be used by folks who don't have the foggiest idea of what injection molding is.
A real Mackie Designs mic/line mixer section! Based on our world-famous MicroSeries 1202-VLZ and enhanced with new mic preamps and about a gazillion ingenious extra features.
Rugged, sealed rotary controls resist dust, moisture and other contamination.
Expensive, studio-grade, 9-band program equalizers for mains and monitor that utilize multiple summing amplifiers and precision infinite feedback band-pass filters, which yield superior linear-phase and combining properties. What this means is our graphic EQs are exceptionally low-noise, low-distortion, sound great, and don't suffer from any nasty phase-shift problems. Level-setting control & LED on every PPM mixer channel-makes setting input levels a snap.
Mil-spec fiberglass circuit boards (instead of cheap phenolic) resist physical impact.
Amp routing switch assigns power amps to mains or mains + monitors.
Hefty 10,000µf storage capacitors for high peak power reserves.
