    PMP 6000 · Behringer

    6 for sale on Reverb3 finishes at Thomann

    • Weight13.1 kg

    You get a lot of channels and a lot of power here, so this mixer suits you if you run a band or a small event with many mics and sources. It has 12 mic preamps with 48V phantom power, so condenser mics work without extra gear. Because it is a powered mixer, you can plug speakers straight in without buying a separate amplifier.

    Pros

    • Two 800 W power amplifiers, bridgeable to 1600 W, for serious output
    • Twelve mic preamps with 48V phantom power for condenser microphones
    • Twenty channels, 12 mono and 4 stereo, for mixing many sources

    Cons

    • Only 2 AUX-paths, which may limit complex monitor setups

How to choose the best powered mixers

EQ

Don't expect surgical precision. We're looking for usable bands that can tame harsh frequencies or add a little warmth without introducing noise. A basic 3-band EQ on each channel is a minimum; a usable mid-sweep is a bonus.

Headroom & Cleanliness

Can it handle a loud drum kit or a screaming vocalist without distorting prematurely? We're looking for that sweet spot where it breaks up nicely if you push it, but stays clean when you need it.

Effects

Reverb and delay are nice to have, but don't be swayed by a ton of effects you'll never use. Quality is more important than quantity; a decent reverb is worth more than a dozen cheesy chorus settings.

Connectivity

XLR inputs are non-negotiable. Aux sends for effects loops are a big plus for bands. Think about how many mics and instruments you'll realistically be plugging in.

Build Quality

Let's be honest, at this price point, things will be plastic. But we're looking for something that feels reasonably solid and won't fall apart after a few gigs. Rattling knobs and flimsy faders are instant deal-breakers.

Buying guide

Alright, so you need a powered mixer but your bank account isn't screaming 'platinum endorsement deal.' Been there. Finding something that actually sounds decent and can handle a gig - even a small one - without breaking the $800 barrier takes some digging. This list isn't about marketing hype; it's about getting you a mixer that'll let you focus on the music, not wrestling with fizz or a muddy low end.

Under $800, you're making trade-offs. Don't expect boutique preamps or pristine noise floors. EQ will be functional, not fantastic.

You'll probably be dealing with a fair amount of plastic in the construction. Prioritize headroom and usable EQ; those are the things that'll make or break your sound live. A slightly larger mixer with fewer, higher-quality preamps is often better than a smaller one crammed with mediocre ones.

Questions

Will this mixer be good enough for recording vocals?

It depends on the mic and your expectations. It's doable, but don't expect pristine studio results. A decent USB interface is often a better investment for serious vocal tracking.

What's the difference between 'phantom power' and 'XLR'?

Phantom power (48V) is what powers condenser microphones. XLR is the type of connector they use. You need both to use a condenser mic.

Can I connect my acoustic guitar directly to this mixer?

Absolutely. Just be mindful of the input level to avoid clipping. A DI box can help match impedance and add a little extra clean gain if needed.

What does 'headroom' mean, and why is it important?

Headroom is the amount of 'space' before the mixer starts to distort. More headroom means you can crank the levels without unwanted breakup, especially important for drums or loud amps.

My mixer is making a buzzing sound. What's going on?

Ground loops are a common culprit. Try different power outlets or a ground lift adapter. It's a frustrating problem, but usually solvable with some troubleshooting.
