PMC-500 DJ Mixer

Flexible enough to be used by anyone, the rackmountable PMC-500 DJ Mixer is engineered with the highest standards to suit the styles of a thousand genres. The PMC-500 features 5 channels, each with 3-band EQ, 7-segment LED level indicator, plus an extensive array of I/O options.

Line in (RCA) and phono (RCA) inputs on each channel feed the 60mm Tight Torque faders. Effects level controls are also provided on each channel for fine tuning and separating effects when routing audio to the unit's aux send output.

2 dedicated mic channels offer 1/4" unbalanced inputs, and Mic 1 also features a balanced XLR input. For additional flexibility, the mic channels can also be used as line channels via top panel RCA inputs (indicated by an LED when active).

For external effects linking, the PMC-500 provides an aux send and return with separate level controls. The aux send is selectable to pre, off, or post with its own cue switch. The aux RCV (return) is linked to its own 7-segment LED readout for active level metering. Dual master outputs and a dedicated booth output all feature limitable outputs (-10dB/0dB) that can be preset via an attenuation switch under the top panel. The booth output also has a dedicated 2-band EQ and booth mute (100%) switch. A headphone control section features 2-band EQ and selectable split cue and stereo cue modes.

The PMC-500 includes Vestax's PCV crossfader with pre-selectable crossfader curve settings to fit long- or short-throw mixing styles. The crossfader is also field-replaceable for zero downtime.

Finally, the PMC-500 offers an emergency Fire Alarm function that mutes the mixer's output, allowing only the mic channel to function in an emergency.
