PPM1012

Featuring 800W + 800W peak Class-D, Fast Recovery power amplifiers, a full eight mono mic/line channels each with 3-band Perkins EQ and sweepable mid and two stereo channels each with 4-band Perkins EQ, the PPM1012 is the flagship mixer of the Mackie PPM series. The PPM1012 is equipped with two 32-bit RMFX+ processors, each featuring 24 effects with tap delay, dual 9-band graphic EQ (one for mains, one for monitors) and dedicated in-line compressors on the first six channels. Each mono channel has a premium Mackie mic preamp, an input Gain control with 50 dB of gain, a 100 Hz Low Cut filter, two Aux/Mon sends and two Aux/FX sends, Pan, Mute, Solo, a 60mm fader and a Channel Insert jack for connecting an external processor. There are built-in DIs on channels seven and eight for direct connection of guitars or bass, a 1/4-inch stereo footswitch jack for muting effects and a switchable subwoofer output with variable low-pass frequency. Other features include +48V phantom power, a stereo tape input and output, a 1/4-inch stereo headphone jack, stereo 12-segment LED meters, BNC lamp socket and XLR and TRS stereo (and mono) output jacks. Despite its large channel count, the PPM1012 is ultra-light and rack-mountable. Plus, its a Mackie which means it is Built-Like-A-Tank and will survive years of abuse.
