What Does The Pro-Matrix Do?
The Pro-Matrix Amplifier is ideally suited
for restaurants and similar venues.
It provides 4 AUX and 2 MIC inputs that
can be distributed into 3 different zones.
The Pro-Matrix automatically switches the
different audio sources based on a preset,
user-programmed priority hierarchy. This
allows the correct audio to reach the correct
areas without any user intervention, mak-
ing operation ultra simple.
For example, suppose a restaurant has a
dining area, lounge, and waiting area that
are in need of the following audio sources:
• The Dining Area - Uninterrupted back-
ground music only, no other sources.
• The Bar - Hostess paging mic and either
background music, jukebox, or TV audio.
• The Waiting Area - Hostess paging mic
and background music only.
The Pro-Matrix adapts quickly to this situ-
ation. Connect each area to a different
audio channel. Then connect the back-
ground music source, jukebox, and TV
audio to the AUX inputs, and connect the
hostess paging mic. The rest of the installa-
tion is completed using the detachable
10-character control panel. Using simple
prompted programming, give each input the
priority it should have relative to the other
sources for each area. Undesired sources can
be removed from the priority list in a particu-
lar area so they cannot cut in.
This flexible priority assignment allows all
the sources needed in the lounge to be han-
dled correctly and automatically, while the
same source in the dining and waiting areas
are automatically handled differently accord-
ing to their needs.
In addition to flexible priority assignment of
inputs, the Pro-Matrix has 10 different menus
that allow control of a host of system opera-
tions from applying phantom power to mics
to setting the muting level of music during
mic pages and much more.

The Pro-Matrix was developed expressly for the needs of restaurants, lounges, fitness
centers, and other venues that require numerous input sources but have areas with
distinctly different audio requirements. The Pro-Matrix amplifier provides 3 fully
independent audio channels that can use any of the 6 different inputs in vastly
different ways. The Pro-Matrix is designed to be as easy for users to operate as a
home stereo, yet it provides the installer with a wide array of customizable features
that are all password-protected from tampering.
