Important Safety Instructions

WARNING:

Terminals marked with this symbol carry electrical current of sufficient magnitude to constitute risk of electric shock.
Use only high-quality professional speaker cables with ¼” TS or twist-locking plugs pre-installed. All other installation or modification should be performed only by qualified personnel.
This symbol, wherever it appears, alerts you to the presence of uninsulated dangerous voltage inside the enclosure – voltage that may be sufficient to constitute a risk of shock.
This symbol, wherever it appears, alerts you to important operating and maintenance instructions in the accompanying literature. Please read the manual.

Caution
To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not remove the top cover (or the rear section). No user-serviceable parts inside. Refer servicing to qualified personnel.
Caution
To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not expose this appliance to rain and moisture. The apparatus shall not be exposed to dripping or splashing liquids and no objects filled with liquids, such as vases, shall be placed on the apparatus.
Caution

Unplug this apparatus during lightning storms or when unused for long periods of time.
Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. Servicing is required when the apparatus has been damaged in any way, such as power supply cord or plug is damaged, liquid has been spilled or objects have fallen into the apparatus, the apparatus has been exposed to rain or moisture, does not operate normally, or has been dropped.
The apparatus shall be connected to a MAINS socket outlet with a protective earthing connection.
Where the MAINS plug or an appliance coupler is used as the disconnect device, the disconnect device shall remain readily operable.
Correct disposal of this product: This symbol indicates that this product must not be disposed of with household waste, according to the WEEE Directive (2012/19/EU) and your national law. This product should be taken to a collection center licensed for the recycling of waste electrical and electronic equipment (EEE). The mishandling of this type of waste could have a possible negative impact on the environment and human health due to potentially hazardous substances that are generally associated with EEE. At the same time, your cooperation in the correct disposal of this product will contribute to the efficient use of natural resources. For more information about where you can take your waste equipment for recycling, please contact your local city office, or your household waste collection service.
Do not install in a confined space, such as a bookcase or similar unit.
Do not place naked flame sources, such as lighted candles, on the apparatus.
Please keep the environmental aspects of battery disposal in mind. Batteries must be disposed of at a battery collection point.

EUROPOWER PMP2000D Controls

Controls

The FX control determines the signal level that is routed from the respective channel to the built-in effects processor.
The HIGH control in the EQ section governs the high frequencies of the respective channel.(3) Use the MID control to boost/cut the mid range.
The LOW control allows you to raise or lower the bass frequencies.
The MON control determines the channel’s volume assigned to the monitor mix.
Use the LEVEL control to set the volume level of the respective channel.
Use the CLIP LED to ensure that the input gain is set properly. The CLIP LED should light up only with peak signals, but never all the time.
The PAD button reduces the channel input sensitivity by 25 dB. Thus, you can also connect high-level line signals to the respective channel input.
This HI-Z/LINE input can be used to connect (21) POWER AMP switch determines whether line-level signal sources, such as keyboards, electric and bass guitars.
This is the channel’s balanced XLR microphone input.
The stereo line input of channels 7 – 12 can be used to connect, for example, keyboards with stereo outputs or a stereo drum computer.
The 2-TRACK/LINE IN RCA input of channel 13/14 allows you to feed in external stereo signals from your CD player or tape deck, for example.
The 2-TRACK/LINE OUT RCA output provides the stereo main mix signal of your PMP2000D and can be routed to, say, a recording machine.
The phantom power supply provides the voltage necessary for the operation of condenser microphones. Use the PHANTOM POWER switch to activate the supply together for channels 1 – 12 (XLR connector). The LED above the switch is lit when phantom power is on.
This is the PMP2000D’s graphic stereo equalizer, which comprises two units and can be used to adapt the sound to the room acoustics.
Use the EQ IN buttons to switch the two equalizer units on or off.
Press the LOW CUT button to activate the low-cut filter of channels 1 – 6. This filter eliminates unpleasant bass frequencies (e.g. microphone pop noise).
The FX TO MON control determines the effect’s intensity of the multi-effects processor as part of the monitor mix. Turn the control fully counter-clockwise to add no effect to the monitor mix.
The MONITOR LEVEL control adjusts the volume of the monitor mix.
Use the MONITOR LEVEL display to control the monitor signal level. The upper LED (LIM) lights up when the built-in limiter is activated, thus protecting against overload.
POWER AMP switch determines whether the PMP2000D works as a stereo amplifier (MAIN L/MAIN R), a dual amplifier with the left channel dedicated to monitoring
(MONITOR/MONO) or a single mono amplifier with both channels dedicated solely to front-of-house sound reinforcement
(BRIDGE/BRIDGE). In BRIDGE/BRIDGE mode, please use a single 2-pole speaker cable with pins 1+ and 2+ of OUTPUT B only.
The MAIN LEVEL control governs the overall volume of the PMP2000D.
The MAIN LEVEL display reads the output level of the PMP2000D. The upper LED (LIM) lights up when the built-in limiter is activated, thus protecting against signal peaks.
The FX TO MAIN control functions as FX return for the built-in effects processor. Use this control to add the desired effect signal to the main mix. No effect signal is added when the FX TO MAIN is set fully counter-clockwise.
The DIGITAL WIRELESS USB input accepts
the optional BEHRINGER wireless microphone receiver. The LEDs indicate wireless microphone signal input. WIRELESS MIC 1/MIC 2 input signals are routed to channel 1 and channel 2.
AUX IN section accepts audio signals from external devices using 1/8″ TRS stereo connectors. The AUX IN knob controls the input level.
Use the FX FOOTSW(itch) jack to connect any commercially available foot controller. It allows you to bypass the effects unit.
Here, you will find a list of all multi-effect presets available.
This is the LED level meter of the effects processor. Please make sure that the clip LED lights up with signal peaks only. If it is lit constantly, this indicates that the effects processor is overdriven, which can lead to unpleasant distortion.
The Effect display reads the currently selected preset.
Turn the PROGRAM/PARAMETER [PUSH] control to select the effect presets. Press the control briefly to confirm your selection. PUSH and TURN the button to adjust one parameter of the currently chosen effect.
FX button activates the effects processor when pressed.
The TAP button allows you to program time-based effects (such as delay) by pressing the button repeatedly in time with the desired tempo. The TAP LED flashes rhythmically to show the current tempo.
The mains connection is on a standard IEC receptacle. An appropriate power cord is supplied with the unit.
Use the POWER switch to put your PMP2000D into operation. The POWER switch should always be in the “Off” position when you are about to connect your unit to the mains.
SERIAL NUMBER.
OUTPUT A uses pins 1+ and 1- to send out the left (LEFT) speaker channel over a single
2- pole speaker cable. As an option, you may also connect a single 4-pole speaker to OUTPUT A to carry both the left and right speaker outputs, in which case the left channel output will use OUTPUT A pins 1+ and 1-, while the right channel uses OUTPUT A pins 2+ and 2-. When the POWER OUTPUT switch is set to BRIDGE/BRIDGE mode, the bridged mono output uses pins 1+ and 2+ of OUTPUT B only (using a single 2-pole speaker cable), and you should therefore NOT connect any speaker cable to OUTPUT A.
OUTPUT B uses pins 1+ and 1- to send out the right (RIGHT) speaker channel over a single 2-pole speaker cable. When the POWER OUTPUT switch is set to BRIDGE/BRIDGE mode, the bridged mono output uses pins 1+ and 2+ of OUTPUT B only (using a single 2-pole speaker cable), and you should therefore NOT connect any speaker cable to OUTPUT A.
