The BEHRINGER POWERPLAY P16
system is the easy, affordable way to
give your musicians and vocalists what
they really want—“more me!” P16-M
Personal Mixers lets each performer take
control of what they hear, allowing the
engineer to concentrate on providing
the audience with the best possible
listening experience. Fast and easy to set
up, a basic system can be installed and
configured in a matter of minutes—and
the system can be expanded to adapt to
changing needs.
Tech-Free Zone
The P16-M’s simple user interface
makes it easy for even non-techies
to dial-in the perfect monitor mix.
For example, let’s say the electric guitar
is too loud in the lead vocalist’s mix;
they simply press the appropriate channel
button (the one labeled E. GTR) and turn
the Volume control to lower the guitar
level in their mix. They can also adjust
Pan (left to right mix), EQ (Bass, Mid with
sweepable Freq control and Treble),
and much more. All of these adjustments
can be made without affecting anyone
else’s personal mix.
