EUROPOWER PMH1000/PMH3000/PMH5000 FOREWORD Dear Customer, Welcome to the team of EUROPOWER users and thank you very much for expressing your confidence in BEHRINGER products by purchasing this power mixer.
EUROPOWER PMH1000/PMH3000/PMH5000 1. INTRODUCTION Congratulations! With the PMH1000/PMH3000/PMH5000 you have acquired a state-of-the-art power mixer that sets new standards. Right from the very start it has been our goal to design a revolutionary unit that can be used for a wide variety of applications. Indeed, this overwhelming power mixer gives you plenty of functionality and a broad range of connection and expansion options. Please make sure that all units have a proper ground connection.
EUROPOWER PMH1000/PMH3000/PMH5000 The FX control determines the signal level sent from each channel to the built-in effects processor; this signal is also present at the FX SEND jack (see ). The stereo channels have a TRIM control for gain adjustment, with the input sensitivity ranging from +20 to -20 dB. The PMH5000 has two FX controls (FX 1 and FX 2), so that you can use two effects simultaneously.
EUROPOWER PMH1000/PMH3000/PMH5000 In BRIDGE mode, always connect only one loudspeaker with an impedance of at least 8 Ω to the OUTPUT B jack! Please note that OUTPUT A must NEVER be used in BRIDGE mode! In all other operating modes, the minimum impedance of the speaker must not fall below 4 Ω . 2.3 Effects section List of all multi-effects processor presets.
EUROPOWER PMH1000/PMH3000/PMH5000 PMH1000: MON SEND fader. Use the SUB FILTER control PMH3000/PMH5000: MON1/2 fader. The FX SEND connector can be used to route the FX SEND signal from the input channel, for example, to the input of an external effects device. Since the PMH5000 has two FX controls per input signal (see ), both FX SEND 1+2 are present at one jack. These faders are used to set the monitor output volume (see also and ).
EUROPOWER PMH1000/PMH3000/PMH5000 CONCERT: Select between a small theater and a large hall. Although this program is similar to studio (see below) it features more, presence which adds to its “lively” character. STAGE: Is well suited for dissipating the sound of a keyboard or an acoustic guitar. ROOM: You can clearly hear the walls of the room. A useful program for reverb that isn’t directly noticable (rap, hip hop vocals) or to make dry recordings of instruments sound natural again.
EUROPOWER PMH1000/PMH3000/PMH5000 4.3 Loudspeaker connections Your power mixer is equipped with high-quality loudspeaker connectors (compatible to NEUTRIK® SPEAKON®), which ensure safe and trouble-free operation. The SPEAKON® connector was especially developed for high-power loudspeakers. Once it is plugged in, it safely locks into position and cannot be accidentally disengaged. It prevents the occurrence of electrical shock and ensures the correct polarity.

WIRING EXAMPLES Fig. 5.2: Bridged mono operation This illustration shows the power mixer with a sub-woofer connected to OUTPUT B. For a bridged mono operation to OUTPUT B, the AMP MODE selector switch must be set to its lower position “BRIDGE”.
EUROPOWER PMH1000/PMH3000/PMH5000 Fig. 5.3: Dual mono operation For a dual mono operation, the AMP MODE switch must be set to its center position (MON1/MONO for PMH3000/PMH5000 or MON for PMH1000)! The two loudspeaker outputs provide the main and the monitor signals, separately from each another. Each of these signals is then sent to two speakers wired in parallel. Fig. 5.
EUROPOWER PMH1000/PMH3000/PMH5000 Fig. 5.5: Expanded set-up This application is an expanded set-up based on the standard set-up as shown in fig. 5.4, and provides additional connection options. Again, this is just an example, which can be expanded in various ways. 12 5.
