Behringer EUROCOM MA6000M Fiche Technique

2

The EUROCOM MA6000M professional mixer offers

extraordinary versatility and ease-of-use in a rack-

mountable system that is ideal for medium-complexity

commercial sound in facilities such as meeting rooms,

conference rooms, presentation facilities, houses of

worship, restaurants, clubs, and similar applications

involving foreground music and paging. Designed for

easy operation by non-technical personnel, the MA6000M

combines a clear, intuitive front panel with back-panel

controls that allow the installer tremendous flexibility

in customizing the mixer to the needs of each

individual installation.
The MA6000M includes eight main channels for

balanced or unbalanced input from line-level sources

or microphones, either standard or phantom powered.

All channels accept input via both 5-pin Euroblock

connectors (with control and direct-out pins) and

XLR/TRS (¼-inch) combination jacks. All main inputs are

equipped with a signal LED, gain trim, and high and low

EQ. A set of nine DIP switches on each channel assign the

channel to main and/or Zone 2 buses, set mic/line input,

turn phantom power on/off, set mute send/receive for

channel muting, and enable remote volume control,

auto-mixing, and chime activation for the channel.

The level of each channel in the main mix is set with

individual front-panel level controls.
Four additional auxiliary input channels, each with a

pair of RCA jacks that are summed internally to mono,

are provided for playback from external sources such as

CD/MP3 players, cable boxes, and radio/TV tuners. A set

of four front-panel buttons determine which aux input is

currently sent to the main mix. Front panel controls are

also provided for the level and the high/low EQ of the

aux input.
A 4-pin Euroblock connector provides an additional

input (600 Ω, mic or line) for a telephone paging system.

MA6000M telephone/paging functions, configured

via Tel/Page DIP switches, include assignable muting

(signal, switch, or contact closure activated), an assignable

chime, and assignment of any aux input to a Music on

Hold (MOH) bus. Controls are provided for the level of

the paging send to the main mix, the amount of ducking

during pages, the volume of the paging chime, and the

level of the Music on Hold feed.

MA6000M outputs, all mono, include two main-mix outs

(switchable line or mic level) on 3-pin Euroblocks and

both Zone 2 and MOH outputs combined onto a single

5-pin Euroblock connector. The MOH out is fed from the

main mix bus, while inputs to the Zone 2 mix, which may

be fed to an external recorder or supplemental PA system,

are assigned independently of the main mix. Each output

has a level control, and neither is affected by master

volume or EQ settings.
Additional MA6000M connections include a 5-pin

Euroblock for remote control, switchable between the

main mix and the aux bus. Also on 5-pin Euroblock

connectors are Bridge In and Bridge Out, which allow

multiple MA6000 series units to be bridged under the

control of one master unit. The master is determined by

a setting on each unit’s Master DIP switches, which also

include settings for routing the aux inputs, the aux bus,

and the chime.
In addition to the controls described above, the MA6000M

front panel includes a master level (main mix) knob—

surrounded by an indicator ring that glows yellow

when the unit is powered and flashes red at the onset

of clipping—as well as high and low EQ to optimize the

main mix sound for any environment. Also included are

a pair of LED meters that indicate Main Mix and Zone 2

output levels.
Combining powerful features and exceptional

configurability with a streamlined interface that is

ideal for non-technical users, the EUROCOM MA6000M

mixer provides outstanding value and functionality

for installed sound applications in a wide variety of

commercial installations.
