There has been some confusion over the ZX zone mixers ducking depth function lately. Many people have been wondering why their microphones do not work when trying to use this function. A paging control should be used together with the microphone to effectively get the audio to attenuate automatically. The paging... more

As Phonic doesn't make flight cases, and we currently don't have any plans to begin producing such cases, we can only suggest that any flight case based on a regular sized console should suffice for travel.  In the even that one of our mixers has unique dimensions (the Sonic Stations come to mind), then a case... more

Any generic foot switches with momentary contact (ie. non-latching type) will be suitable for the Powerpod Mixer.  Roland/BOSS offer the FS-5U is a momentary unlatching footswitch.  Phonic does not currently manufacture footswitches.

Our sound systems can be friend, or seem like foe. As worship leaders, praise musicians, or pastors, we are usually entirely dependent on acoustic technology, and the faithful and courageous folks who do their best to manage sound every week. One of the recurring frustrations can be unintended noise such as speaker... more

Q: Does the PM 801 have individual OUTPUTS (for each channel) that are controlled by the LEVEL?

Secondly, the effect drive knob on the processor should also be set to allow the audio to be heard. Next, ensure the level control of... more

You can use the AM/MU series mini stereo jack (not featured on all models) for the mixer-PC connection. You may also purchase an appropriate y-cable with RCA plugs on one end (to connect to your Rec out) and a single mini-stereo plug on the other (to connect to your computer).

Sonic Station 16 has 8 direct outputs - one each on channels 1 through 8. They are unbalanced 1/4" TS jacks, which send the signal post-fader, post-EQ, post-Low-cut filter, post-Mute.

You would connect the EFX or AUX send of the mixer to the input of your effects unit and the output of the effects unit to the EFX or AUX return on the mixer. If you want to get only the effected sound returned , set the balance on the effect unit to 100% effects, without any direct signal mixed in. more
