The Dynacord PowerMate 1600-3 is a powerful expanded take on Dynacord’s powered mixers that’s the perfect heart of any live mixing setup. Featuring two amplifier stages for left and right speakers, it’s ideal for adding the punch you need for passive speakers without investing in a separate power amp.
The PowerMate offers 1000 W of power per speaker with low impedance for clear, crisp audio quality that translates your mixes perfectly. The 1600-3 features 16 channels with high-performance preamps that deliver clean, clear audio with minimal noise. The PowerMate offers 12 mono channels and 4 stereo channels, making signal routing simple and easy.
Two effects send controls, two aux sends, and two monitor sends across all channels make further processing extremely easy, making this perfect as a monitoring hub or as a front-of-house desk. Rounded out by a USB audio interface with four playback channels, four recording channels, and MIDI compatibility, this mixer is incredibly connective and expandable.
This powered mixer also provides a staggering range of processing options with fixed 80 Hz low-cut filter and voice filter on mono channels for cleaning up sounds, and three-band EQ with a sweepable mid control for further sound sculpting. The desk also features a stereo graphic EQ that can be routed to the master channel or either of its two monitor outputs for extra precision. To add that final touch of quality to your mixes, the PowerMate also features dual effects units with 100 factory presets, 20 user slots, and adjustable parameters to complete any sources you send to it with reverbs, delays, or modulation.
Clean, clear amplification: Utilizing powerful Class D amplification, the PowerMate can provide up to 1000 watts of power per amplifier. This technology removes the need for heat sinks, improving efficiency so more functionality can be packed into the unit while making it lighter and easier to transport. An ideal solution for traveling engineers, touring bands, festivals, or installation as the heart of a live venue’s audio setup, this mixer is incredibly adaptable.
Extreme connectivity: The 1600-3 offers 12 mono channels with 4 stereo channels, as well as two aux sends, effects sends, and monitor sends per channel. This makes it incredibly simple to use and flexible. Perfect for expanding with other signal processors, input sources, as a sidecar mixer, or purely for monitoring. However, it’s still great for front-of-house mixing too. Plus, a built-in USB audio interface with four playback channels and four recording channels lets you play backing tracks or playlists from computers or tablets, capture live sets in their entirety, or record in studio spaces. MIDI functionality via this USB connection also allows you to run keyboards or synthesizers live.
Deep processing possibilities: The final finishing touches and extra polish to really bring the best out of live sets relies on both internal and external processing options offered by your mixer of choice. The PowerMate shines here too, with two aux sends on each channel allowing connections to outboard gear, as well as its dual built-in effects units. The PowerMate range has become beloved for its reverbs, which are all present on this powered model, as well as delay and modulation effects, letting you add space and depth to any sound source. 100 factory presets and 20 user slots give you plenty of flexibility for saving and loading your own custom effects chains or picking pre-designed ones by Dynacord for quickly achieving great-sounding mixes.
