Once the basic set up is complete, use the P4M Personal Monitor Mixer to create a custom mix:
1. Mix the signal from each audio input using the corresponding CONCENTRIC LEVEL/PAN knob:
OUTER RING: Use this to pan the signal to the left or right channel of the stereo mix.
INNER KNOB: Use this to control the level of the audio input.
2. Observe the signal/clip LEDs next to each CONCENTRIC LEVEL/PAN knob.
NOTE: Decrease the level of an input if the corresponding signal/clip LED is consistently red. If the level is decreased all the way and the
LED remains red, the level of the input from the previous device in the audio chain is too high and should be decreased.
3. Up to two additional line-level audio sources (such as other mixers, a click track or a digital sequencer) may be added via
the AUX IN inputs. These signals go directly to the MIX OUT outputs and are not affected by the CONCENTRIC LEVEL/
PAN knobs.
4. To pass an unaltered signal through the mixer, use the corresponding SPLIT OUTPUT.
NOTE: Although the mixer does not provide phantom power for condenser microphones, the SPLIT OUTPUTS can pass phantom power
from a phantom power supply to a microphone connected to the corresponding input jack.
CAUTION!: Use a “direct box” when connecting guitars, keyboards, and other instruments to a mixing console through
the P4M Mixer. The phantom power that mixing consoles provide for microphones can damage other instruments. Connect
the instrument to the direct box then connect the direct box to the P4M Mixer input.

Running Multiple PSM Wireless Systems Under MixMode Control: When using a mixer with multiple auxiliary out jacks, a single monitor
mix can be sent to multiple P4T transmitters using the LOOP connectors, and independent monitor mixes or direct outputs can be sent
directly to the second channel of each P4T. This allows each P4T user to mix a band mix signal with a solo mix signal using the MixMode
feature on the receiver. The thumbwheel on the P4R is used to mix the two signals in relation to one another.
Running a Recording Device Through a P4T Transmitter: If you would like to make a recording of a performance, the LOOP outputs
can be connected to the inputs of a tape deck, DAT, or other recording device.

MixMode/Stereo Control
The flexible design of the PSM 400 Wireless Personal Performance Pack makes configuring a monitor mix very simple. In
addition, the unique MixMode circuitry enables you to customize your own individual mix in a multiple mix environment.

P4R RECEIVER
WHAT IS MIXMODE CONTROL?
The P4R receiver receives two signals (1/L and 2/R) from the P4T transmitter. The P4R processes these signals in either MixMode or stereo:
STEREO: In stereo, the signals remain separate so that 1/L is heard through the left earphone and 2/R is heard through
the right earphone. The balance knob on the P4R adjusts the balance between the left and right earphones.
MIXMODE: In MixMode, the signals are “mixed” in relation to one another using the balance knob, blended into one
signal. The one mixed signal is sent to both the left and right earphones.

MIXMODE IN APPLICATIONS
MixMode is most useful when two distinct mixes are provided to the P4T transmitter, such as a band mix and a vocal mix. MixMode combines
these two signals into one monitor mix and allows you to control this mix during the performance using the P4R receiver. For example, if the
band overpowers the vocals in the mix, increase the level of the vocals and decrease the level of the band by simply adjusting the balance
knob on the receiver.

Monitor Mix
This configuration uses the P4M’s SPLIT OUTPUTS to pass audio signal to other P4M Personal Monitor Mixers. Each player can create a custom mix at
their mixer. Recommended for live, studio or rehearsal situations.
1. Connect a monitor mix signal (from a mixing console) and up to three audio sources to the four inputs on the mixer’s front panel.
2. Connect the SPLIT OUTPUT of the mixer containing the monitor mix to an input on a second mixer.
3. Connect the other SPLIT OUTPUTS from the first mixer to either the second mixer or to the mixing console.
4. On the second mixer, connect the SPLIT OUTPUT containing the monitor mix to a third mixer or to a floor monitor amplifier.
5. Connect MIX OUT 1/L and MIX OUT 2/R on the back panel of each mixer to INPUTS 1/L and 2/R on the back panel of a P4T trans-
mitter.
6. On each mixer, mix the four signals using the CONCENTRIC LEVEL/PAN knobs on the front panel.
7. Transmit the mix from each transmitter to its respective P4R receiver.
