PPM1008
The PPM1008 features 800W + 800W peak Class-D, Fast
Recovery™ power amplifiers, six mono mic/line channels
each with 3-band Perkins EQ and sweepable mid and two
stereo mic/line/RCA channels each with 4-band Perkins EQ.
The PPM1008 is equipped with a 32-bit RMFX+™ processor
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 four channels.
Each mono channel has a premium Mackie mic preamp,
a low/high gain switch, one Mon send and one FX/Mon
send and a Channel Insert jack for connecting an external
processor.
There are built-in DIs on channels five and six for direct
connection of guitars or bass, a 1/4-inch stereo footswitch
jack for muting effects and a subwoofer output.
Other features include +48V phantom power, stereo tape
output, stereo 12-segment LED meters and TRS stereo
output jacks.
Despite its large channel count, the PPM1008 is ultra-light.
Plus, it’s a Mackie which means it is “Built-Like-A-Tank” and
will survive years of abuse.
