High-quality hardware
The PPM1012 features 8 mic/line channels each with their own low noise/high headroom performance for the most transparent sound possible. Coupled with true 48V phantom power & Mackie’s legendary VLZ3-style EQ, you’ll have no problem bringing out the best in any microphone.
That isn’t good enough, we hear you say? It might be worth taking note of the 6 dedicated in-line compressors (Channels 1-6) – perfect for bringing out those sweet dynamics in any performance. You’ll be able to monitor all of this on the dual graphic EQs with their tight, constant-Q Filters that effect only the frequency range you've intended. Nifty, we know.
Transparent audio
Mackie have custom designed the PPM1012 with Class-D amps, which are cool-running and boast maximum efficiency. The PPM includes Mackie's proven Fast Recovery circuitry, eliminating the risk of pesky amp latching. The result is a distortion free mix even when pushing peak levels.
The built-in limiter can go toe-to-toe with the most popular outboard stereo limiters used in live sound today, protecting your speakers from damage. The limiter's attack and release times are specifically selected to address full-bandwidth music and will not muddy things up by adding any unwanted pumping. You can push the PPM1012 to its maximum output, distortion free.
A world of effects
What’s the best thing to accompany great hardware? Great DSP – especially when it’s 24 ‘Gig Ready effects! The Mackie PPM1012’s rich selection of small-to-large reverbs pair together with an array of choruses & practical delays – allowing you to get that soundcheck sorted quick. Mackie refer to this processor as an RMFX+ (Running Man FX), which also happens to be the first onboard processer to feature a tap function. This means that if you want to use a delay, but the preset delay time doesn't work, you can tap it in instantly!
Built to last
Mackie are in the business of creating some of the most durable equipment out there. What’s good for you is that the PPM1012 is no exception. Continuing Mackie’s 'Built-Like-A-Tank™' philosophy, this unit is housed within a solid-steel chassis with ABS end caps to ensure that your mixer is as solid as your mix. What’s more surprising, is how lightweight this system is despite all that protection!
Couple up!
PPM mixers and Mackie passive speakers were made for each other. From their popular C series (C300/200) to their S series (S200/S400), Mackie designed their mixer to match the power requirements of their passive speakers perfectly. It’s a match made in heaven.
