EUROPOWER PMP580S Getting started

Step 3: Getting  started

1. With the power to all devices turned off, make all power, audio, and speaker connections. Engage the +48 V switch if you are using condenser microphones or powered direct boxes.

2. Select the appropriate speaker output configuration with the POWER AMP A/B selector switch.
   The EUROPOWER PMP580S has two power amp operating modes. In MAIN L/MAIN R mode the PMP580S functions as a stereo amplifier. In this mode left and right stereo signals are sent to OUTPUT A (L) and OUTPUT B (R). In MON/MONO mode it functions as a dual mono amplifier. In this mode the MONITOR signal is sent to OUTPUT A and the MAIN signal is sent to OUTPUT B.

3. With both the MAIN LEVEL and MONITOR LEVEL knobs turned all the way down, turn the mixer on.

4.  Turn the MAIN LEVEL knob about half way up and then adjust the volume of connected audio sources via each channel’s LEVEL knob.

5. Adjust the desired left / right stereo position of each channel with the PAN knobs.

6. Turn the MONITOR LEVEL knob about half way up. Use each channel’s MON knobs to adjust the amount of the channel present in the monitor speaker(s).

7. Adjust the MAIN LEVEL and MONITOR LEVEL knobs to set the overall output volumes. The MAIN LEVEL METER and MONITOR LEVEL METER will indicate the output volume and whether or not the signal is clipping. If the red LIM LEDs on the MAIN LEVEL METER or the MONITOR LEVEL METER illuminate, turn the corresponding LEVEL knob down until the red LED goes off.

8. The PMP580S has a built-in effects processor. Follow these steps to add an effect to one or more channels.
   • Turn the FX 1 knob up half way on each channel that the effect will be applied.
   • Press the FX button to engage the Multi-FX processor.
   • Turn the FX RETURN knob in the MAIN section up half way. To hear the effects in the monitor, turn the FX RETURN knob in the MONITOR section up half way.
   • Scroll through the FX presents using the FX selector knob, when the desired preset number is designated in the FX PROGRAM display, press the FX selector knob to engage the preset.
   • Use the TAP tempo button to adjust the tempo of time-based effects.
   • Readjust each channel’s FX 1 knob to increase or decrease the amount of effect applied to the connected input source. If the METER on the FX PROGRAM display reaches the red CLIP LED, turn the channel FX 1 knobs down.

9. If feedback occurs at the MAIN or MONITOR outputs, engage FBQ FEEDBACK DETECTION.
   • Press the EQ and FBQ FEEDBACK DETECTION buttons to engage the feedback detection system.
   • An LED will illuminated on the EQ slider that corresponds with the feedback frequency.
   • Lower the illuminated EQ slider until the feedback stops.
