The PRO-MIX-7 is designed for the DJ who requires professional mixing with the flexibility of
7 channels plus sound effects. High-end electronics feature ultra low noise circuitry and SMT
construction giving a crystal clear transparent sound that rivals our larger consoles offering a
notch of performance above the typical DJ mixer.
FEATURES:
• 4 stereo channels with transform switches for any combination of 3 vinyl and 5 CD/line
inputs
• 3 Mic channels for vocals and other sources with TALKOVER feature
• Active LO, MID and HI EQs on each channel are set at 80, 750 and 11.5 k Hz
• 25 dB EQ cuts on the 4 main channels
• Input GAIN controls on each channel prevent overloading
• 4 segment metering for each main channel, plus 10 segment MASTER metering
• Each of the four main channels are assignable to either side of the A/B CROSSFADER
24-BIT effects with Reverb, Echo, Chorus and Flange are assignable to either side of the
A/B CROSSFADER or 3 MIC channels, with bypass switch. All parameters are easily
changed for rate, damping, decay, depth, time and regeneration.
AUX OUTPUTS include a separate ZONE for MASTER or MONITOR mix, and a MONO
output which can be switched into a SUBWOOFER output utilizing an internal 150 Hz, 18 dB
per octave crossover. Both outputs have separate level controls.
The MONITOR control center takes it’s input from the MONITOR MIX control for critical listen-
ing of the MASTER output and CUE monitoring from of any of the 4 MAIN or 3 MIC channels.
The MONITOR LEVEL control drives the powerful built in headphone amp, delivering high vol-
ume levels to all 3 headphone outputs.
SUPERB SOUND is derived from the extremely low distortion, high "Headroom" design.
A state-of-the art, low noise, balanced XLR mic preamp for each channel features a common
mode rejection of better than 78 dB, which means that any possible noise that may come over
your cables is virtually eliminated. Even the balanced XLR output connectors guard your sys-
tem from cable noise. Distortion is nearly non-existent with THD below .01%, which guaran-
tees the purity of your sound. Hear the difference - your sound will not seem "sterile" or
"processed". It will be dynamically open and transparent just like it was meant to be!
EASY TO USE Everything is logically laid out making the PRO-MIX 7 simple to use, which
helps to eliminate operator error.
24-Bit STEREO DSP EFFECTS The effects processor with 256 EFFECTS, include
reverbs, choruses, flanging and echoes, with parameters fully adjustable for; damping, decay,
depth, speed, regeneration and time.
ACTIVE 3 BAND CHANNEL EQ Provides easy adjustment for the tone you want. The
LO frequency controls starts at 20 Hz and continues through 80 Hz for adding solid non-flab-
by bass. A simple adjustment with the MID band, gives you the best sound for vocals or gui-
tar in the very important 750Hz frequency range. The 11.5k Hz HI treble control adds sparkle
to your top-end without adding harshness. Both the LOW and HI are "shelving", which means
they are effective from 20Hz up to 20k Hz.
ENGINEERED TO LAST Every PRO-MIX 7 mixer incorporates a rugged reinforced steel
chassis. Hidden deep in the heart of these mixers is the “SMT” Surface Mount Technology
construction that utilizes surface mounted components to prevent parts from shaking or
vibrating loose. Sealed controls and switches guard against the outside elements while heavy-
duty connectors provide a positive connection to your cables. Fire retardant FR-4 military
spec. circuit cards feature double-sided copper construction to guard against noise and radio
frequencies (RF). Precision 1% tolerances guarantee that your settings will be accurate every
time. The PRO-MIX 7 is professionally made in the USA for years of service!
