The PMC16 is a digital remote control consisting of a monitor mixer, a reverb effect
processor, and a global processing and output section. This creates an audio chain akin
to a traditional live sound monitoring system and puts it in the hands of the on-stage
musician, allowing each on-stage musician to tailor their own personalized mix and allow
the system engineer to focus on the front of house mix.
The PMC16 has two modes of operation: Setup Mode and Live Mode. Setup Mode refers to
the Setup Wizard and Setup Menus which are visible when the WIZARD button is pressed.
This mode is used by the system engineer to initially create the “configuration” and set
global options. Live Mode is the mode which refers to normal operation and consists of all
parameters pertaining to the “mix”. When the on-stage musician is editing their mix, they
are doing so in Live Mode. Live Mode consists of four pages, they are: the Meters page,
the Levels page, the Pan page, and the Effects page. Using these four pages allows each
musician to create their own unique mix by adjusting each instrument’s gain, placement
in the stereo field, and front to back spacial placement, using reverb. Channel muting and
soloing are available to help each musician focus on channels which require attention or
channels which should be eliminated from the mix.
The PMC16’s Setup Wizard assists the system engineer during setup and allows for quick,
easy configuration of the PMC16. The PMC16’s Live Mode of operation was designed to
provide a fast, intuitive navigational experience, so musicians new to the PMC16 can start
using the system immediately.
