The Plena mixer is a high performance, professional
public address mixer with modern state of the art
features. Combined with the PLE-1P120-EU or
PLE-1P240-EU amplifiers, you can build an easy-to-
operate yet powerful and flexible public address
system. All this without sacrificing features such as
ducking, priority, and flexibility. The mixer fulfills a
wide variety of public address requirements yet is
surprisingly affordable.
Functions
Inputs
All Mic/line inputs can be switched between
microphone level and line level sensitivity. The inputs
are balanced and can also be used unbalanced.
Phantom power can be switched on to provide power
to condenser microphones.
Input channels 1 and 2 can take priority over all other
microphone and music inputs:
• Input 1 can be activated by contact closure on the
PTT (push to talk) input, or the input can be switched
automatically if a signal is fed to the input, i.e. if
someone speaks into the microphone (VOX
activation). A 2-tone chime can be configured to
precede an announcement
• Input 2 also has a VOX possibility. When one or both
inputs are configured for priority, the attenuation
(reduction) of the cinch input can be set between
‑2 dB (little attenuation) and -∞ dB (mute). This
provides a talk-over or voice-over function.
Input channels 1 and 2 also feature selectable speech
filters to enhance the clarity of announcements.
Labels and colored pins
More unique features are available such as a
detachable label where the user can write the names
for inputs, music sources and zones. These labels can
then be mounted on the front, protected by the clear
window.
Another useful feature is to indicate preferred settings
on the front panel by inserting colored pins at the
preset levels of all knobs. You can then instruct a user
to set all the controls to the green pins to configure
the system for their particular use. A second user can
set all controls to the red pins for their configuration.
Unique features
Separate music inputs are available with their own
input selector, volume control and tone control. The
user can choose a music source such as a CD player or
radio (like the PLN-DVDT), and set the music level. A
desired sound for the music source can be set
separate from the mic/line inputs. So if the music
