MPL-1204
Rackmount 12x4 Mic/Line Mixer
“MPL” stands for “Mic/Program/Line” and the name describes the
broad range of signals which can be handled by this powerful mixer.
In fact, the compact design of the MPL-1204 belies its extraordinary
versatility. A great all-around audio tool, the 4RU high MPL-1204
is designed for use in live and monitor mixing, keyboard setups,
recording and fixed installations, conference rooms, distributed sound
and as an extra mixer to expand home recording setups.
A true 4-bus, the versatile MPL-1204 features 12 input channels with
mic and line trim pots, 3-band EQ, two Aux sends (1 pre, 1 post) plus solo and bussing switches. There are independent faders for
each bus, and stereo Main and Control Room volume controls provide complete flexibility in monitoring and routing.
◆ Twelve independent channels with balanced
XLR and 1/4˝mic and line inputs; also has a
stereo CD/Tape input with dual RCA jacks.
◆ 48V phantom power for all 12 mic inputs
◆ Constant level Pan controls for each channel
that allow you to precisely place each input
signal in the left-right plane.
◆ Independent 3-band EQ for each channel,
with 15dB of cut/boost for low (100 Hz)
and high (10 kHz) frequencies, and 12 dB of
cut/ boost for mid (1 kHz) frequencies.
◆ Channel inserts for all twelve channels,
enable use of outboard signal processors
such as EQs, compressors or noise gates.
◆ Center detents for all Pan and EQ controls
make it easy to use in low-light situations.
◆ Flexible front panel metering system with
10-segment level meter lets you view at a
glance the levels of the main Left/Right out-
put, as well as main power, phantom power,
and PFL or AFL status.
◆ Four bus outputs and an electronically bal-
anced main stereo output, with dedicated
front panel control.Any channel input can
be routed to either of the two bus pairs (1/2
or 3/4), and any of the buses can be routed
to the Left/Right mix output with the touch
of a button. This flexible design allows you
to easily mute selected channels and/or to
create submixes within your main mix.
◆ Independent XLR-balanced Main stereo
outputs as well as balanced stereo Control
Room outputs with dedicated level control.
◆ Bus inserts allow external signals to be sub-
mixed into any or all of the four buses and
also enables linking of multiple mixers.
◆ Two auxiliary sends on each channel.Aux
send 1 is pre-fader,Aux send 2 is post-fader.
◆ Two stereo auxiliary returns (route to any of
the buses). with front panel level controls
◆ Selectable Pre Fade Listen (PFL) or After
Fade Listen (AFL) soloing for each channel.
Both are non-mix-destructive in that they
do not affect the signal being output either
by the Main,Bus, or Control Room outputs.
◆ Front-panel headphone output with volume
control for monitoring of soloed channels.
◆ Mounts in any 19" rack (4RU), making it
easy to integrate into existing systems.
