Mackie Powered Mixer News: Mackie announce a new line of ultra-light professional powered mixers - the PPM608, the PPM1008, and the PPM1012. Delivering more sound per pound than any other mixer in its class, the PPM series brings maximum volume (with no distortion) in a light-weight, built-like-a-tank box.
“While they may be lightweight, the new Mackie PPMs deliver mad power,” said Gilbert Perales, Mackie product manager. “You won’t see smoke when driving dual S225 15” towers from our mixer and we provide more than enough power for a complete system,” said Gilbert.
Each model features custom-designed Mackie Class-D Fast Recovery Amplifiers, which are cooler running and more efficient than their predecessors. A complete set of professional mixing tools includes premium Mackie preamps, 2 built-in DI boxes, 3-band Active EQ, and in-line compressors adding ultimate presence and punch for vocals and instruments. The new onboard 32-bit RMFX+? effects processor boasts a sane, useable set of premium Mackie reverbs, choruses and multi-tap delays that are not found in any other powered mixer on the market.
The Mackie PPM608 8-Channel, 1000W powered mixer includes 8 premium Mackie mic preamps, 48V phantom power and 6 TRS inserts. The Mackie PPM1008 8-channel powered mixer provides 1600W of power, 8 premium Mackie mix preamps, 48V phantom power and 6 TRS inserts. The Mackie PPM1012 12-Channel Powered Desktop Mixer features 8 mic/line mono inputs and 2 stereo line inputs…all the features of a Mackie mic/line mixer, with the added benefit of tremendously powerful built-in amplifiers.
