1.1.1  Shipment
Your PMP2000 was carefully packed at the factory and the packaging is designed

overheating, please do not place the PMP2000 near radiators etc.

Your EUROPOWER PMP2000 comes with 14 input channels, which only differ 

in terms of pad switch, peak LED and interface panel. Since the EQ, effect, 

monitor and level controls are identical on all channels, they will be described 

only once on the enclosed sheet.

(1) 

The FX control determines the signal level that is routed from the respective 

channel to the built-in effects processor.

(2) 

The HIGH control in the EQ section governs the high frequencies of the 

respective channel.

(3) 

Use the MID control to boost/cut the mid range.

(4) 

The LOW control allows you to raise or lower the bass frequencies.

(5) 

The MON control determines the channel’s volume assigned to the 

monitor mix.

(6) 

Use the LEVEL control to set the volume level of the respective channel.

(7) 

Use the CLIP LED to ensure that the input gain is set properly. The CLIP LED 

should light up only with peak signals, but never all the time.

(8) 

The PAD button reduces the channel input sensitivity by 25 dB. Thus, you 

can also connect high-level line signals to the respective channel input.

(9) 

This HI-Z/LINE input can be used to connect line level signal sources, such as 

keyboards, electric and bass guitars.

(10) 

This is the channel’s balanced XLR microphone input.

(11) 

The stereo line input of channels 7 - 12 can be used to connect, for example, 

keyboards with stereo outputs or a stereo drum computer.
