Be sure that the clip LED illuminates for signal peaks only. If it is illuminated all the time, it is a sign that the effects processor is overloading and hence producing unpleasant distortion.
The EFFECT display (PMH880S: two displays) shows the currently selected preset.
Turn the PROGRAM control (PMH880S: one control each for FX 1 and FX 2) to select an effects preset (preset number starts flashing). Push the control briefly to confirm your selection.

LED above the switch illuminates.
Use the POWER AMP switch to determine the operating mode of your power mixer.
The PMH880S has three different operating modes: In MAIN L/MAIN R mode it functions as a stereo amplifier, i.e. the left and right main stereo signals are sent to OUTPUT A (L) and OUTPUT B (R). InMON/MONO mode it functions as a dual mono amplifier. I. e. OUTPUT A sends the monitor signal, and OUTPUT B the main signal (mono). InBRIDGE AMP MODE the output power of outputs A and B are added and provided at OUTPUT B.
The PMH660M also has three operating modes, since it can be operated in two modes with the switch in its upper position (MAIN/MAIN (BRIDGE) mode), depending on the pin connections of the speaker cables. InMAIN/MAIN (BRIDGE) mode power of both outputs is added and provided at OUTPUT B (SPEAKON® cable, pins 1+/2+). With the normal pin connections (SPEAKON® cable, pins
Please refer to andas well as chapter 4.4 “Loudspeaker connectors”.
In BRIDGE mode, always connect only one loudspeaker with an impedance of at least 8 Ω to OUTPUT B (pins 1+/2+)! Please note that OUTPUT A mustNEVER be used in BRIDGE mode (with pin connections 1+/2+)!
In all other operating modes, the minimum impedance of the speaker connected must not fall below 4 Ω.
Use the SPEAKER PROCESSING switch to activate a filter that adapts the mixer to the specifications of your loudspeakers. If the speakers have a limited frequency response in the bass range, it allows you to adapt it optimally to the frequency response of the speakers.
EUROPOWER PMH660M/PMH880S
If STANDBY is pressed, all input channels are muted. During breaks you can thus prevent the microphones from picking up noise or interference, which would then be reproduced by the P.A. system. The advantage is that all faders can be left untouched while you play a CD via the CD/TAPE inputs (see). There is also no need to move down the faders of muted channels and lose your mix.
2.3.1 Connectors
The FOOTSWITCH connector is for a standard footswitch. You can activate an “effect bypass” that mutes the effects processor. Please use a dual footswitch for the PMH880S, so that you can enable/disable FX1 and FX2 independently of each other. In this case, the tip of the 1/4' plug controls FX1, and the ring FX2.
The FX OUT connector is used to route the FX SEND signal from the input channels, for example, to the input of an external effects processor. The PMH880S has two FX controls per input signal (see) and also two FX OUT connectors (FX OUT 1 andFX OUT 2).
Please note: When you connect a mono plug to one of the FX OUT jacks, the signal path from the respective FX send to the
Use the AUX IN 1/4' inputs to route an external stereo signal to the main mix. This can be the signal generated by an external effects processor. Use the left input for mono signals, which are then reproduced on both stereo sides. The PMH660S has only one mono AUX IN connector.
The AUX IN control adjusts the volume of the external signal in the main mix.
The 2TR IN RCA input allows you to feed in external stereo signals, e.g. from a CD player, tape deck or other

The REC OUT (RCA) provides
If the REC OUT signal is connected to a recorder whose output signal is returned to the 2TR IN, feedback can occur when you activate the record function. So, disconnect the 2TR IN from the recorder, before you start recording!
The MAIN 1/4' connectors allow you to send the main signal to an external amplifier, when you only wish to use the mixer and effects section. The signal is taken prepower stage of the mixer. It is also possible to use only the left jack of the output. The PMH660M has only one mono output connector.
Connect your monitor power amps or active monitor speakers to the mono MONITOR output to monitor the signal mix created with the MON controls or to route it to the musicians on stage.
Use the POWER switch to put the unit into operation. The POWER switch should always be in the “Off” position when you are about to connect the unit to the mains.
Please note: The POWER switch does not fully disconnect the unit from the mains. Unplug the power cord completely when the unit is not used for prolonged periods of time.

A special feature of your PMH880S and PMH660M is the builtin
PRO DSP2024P. The PMH880S even has two effects
processors, each of them with 99 different standard effects such as reverb, chorus, flanger, delay, vocal

distortion as well as various effects combinations.
CATHEDRAL: Simulates the dense, long reverberation of a large cathedral, which is appropriate for solo instruments or vocals in slow pieces. Choose between two variations.
PLATE: Simulates the sound of plate reverberations and hence is a classic for drums (snare) and vocals. The second one features more
CONCERT: Select between a small theater and a large hall. Although this program is similar to studio (see below) it features more presence, which adds to its “lively” character.
STAGE: Is well suited for dissipating the sound of a keyboard or an acoustic guitar.
ROOM: You can clearly hear the walls of the room. A useful program for reverb that isn’t directly noticeable (rap, hip hop vocals) or to make dry recordings of instruments sound natural again.
STUDIO: This simulation of a middle to
SMALL HALL: Simulates a small, lively (strongly reflecting) hall and is perfect for processing drums.
AMBIENCE: Reproduces a
EARLY REFLECTIONS: The initial reflections of this room are clearly audible. This effect is a classic for dynamic signals (drums, percussion, slap bass, etc.).
SPRING REVERB: Simulates classic spring reverberation.
GATED REVERB: This effect synthetically cuts off reverberation after a period of time. It is famous in the song “In the Air Tonight” by Phil Collins. The variations differ in the reverb length.
REVERSE REVERB: This is a reverberation in which the envelope is reversed, i.e. it slowly gets louder.
CHORUS: This effect slightly detunes the original signal. A very pleasant detune effect is created in connection with the pitch variation. The chorus effect is used often and quite extensively used for dispersing signals. The variations available range from slow to fast chorus effects.
SYMPHONIC: This effect creates the sound of an
(!) vocal chorus.
FLANGER: The word “flange” means “tape spool”, and this explains the characteristics of the effect. Originally, the flanger effect was generated with two tape recorders which ran synchronously. The same audio signal was recorded on both machines. If you put a finger on the left spool of one of the machines, the spool and the playback speed are slowed down. The generated delay results in phase shifting of the signals. Please choose either “medium flanger” or one of the “bright flanger” programs, which feature an increase in presence.
PHASER: With the phaser, a second,
ROTARY SPEAKER: The simulation of a classic effect that is normally generated with a (slow or fast) rotating speaker.
DELAY: A delay of the input signal with various repetitions. Different tempo settings (ten variations in total) allow interesting delay effects.
ECHO: Similar to the stereo delay, with the difference being that the repetitions have less presence. This simulates the character of the original tape echo that was used before the digital era and can be thought of as a “Vintage Sound”.
MULTI TAP: A delay effect with changing stereo positioning (left, center, right). Four variations are available.
CHORUS & REVERB: This algorithm combines the popular chorus with a reverb effect. Taking all variations into account, they differ in the length of reverb time.
FLANGER & REVERB: The combination of flanger and reverb effects.
PHASER & REVERB: The combination of a classic stereo phaser and a reverb effect. Here, too, the phaser is combined with different reverb types.
ROTARY SPEAKER & REVERB: The combination of a rotary speaker effect and reverb program.
DELAY & REVERB: Delay and reverb is the most common combination for vocals, solo guitars, etc.
PITCH & REVERB: The pitch shifter slightly detunes the audio signal, while the reverb adds ambience to the signal.
DELAY & CHORUS: Chorus can contribute to a wideness of the signal and interesting repetition effects can be adjusted with the delay. Vocals can be given a distinctive effect without making the voice sounding blurred.
DELAY & FLANGER: This effect is just right for creating a modern, slightly “spacy” vocal sound.
DELAY & PITCH: A repetition of the audio signal, with an oscillatory effect added by the pitch shifter.
3 VOICE PITCH: The pitch effect can be used to produce a
LFO BANDPASS: Filters, in general, influence the frequency response of a signal. A
VOCAL DISTORTION: This effect is very hip when used on vocals and drum loops.
VINYLIZER: This effect adds clicks and noise to your audio signal, simulating old vinyl records.

This illustration shows just one example of how the channels of your power mixer can be used, including the connection of mono and stereo sources, and the tape ins and outs recording the mix signal or playing back external signals.
Fig. 5.3: Standard
One example of how to use your power mixer with a subwoofer in bridged mono mode. The illustration shows the PMH880S with a subwoofer connected to OUTPUT B that will receive the full (bridged) output power. A separate stereo power amp (BEHRINGER EUROPOWER EP1500) for the stereo main P.A. signal is connected to the PRE AMP MAIN outputs. The PRE AMP MONITOR output is wired to active speakers on the stage. This application can also be realized with the PMH660M, except for the main P.A. signal, which would be mono.
