Bosch PLE-10M2 2 Channel Plena Mixer (Discontinued)

The Plena mixer is a high performance, professional public address mixer with modern state‑of‑the‑art features. Combined with the PLE-1P120-US or PLE-1P240-US amplifiers, you can build an easy-to-operate yet powerful and flexible public address system. All this without sacrificing features such as ducking, priority, and flexibility. The mixer fills a wide variety of public address requirements yet is surprisingly affordable.

More unique features are available such as detachable labels where the user can write the names for inputs, music sources and zones. These labels can then be mounted on the front, protected by the clear window. Another useful feature is to indicate preferred settings on the front panel by inserting colored pins at the preset levels of all knobs. You can then instruct a user to set all the controls to the green pins to configure the system for their particular use. A second user can set all controls to the red pins for their configuration.

The mixer has two zone outputs. The music can be switched on and off in the zones via the front panel and optional wall panel. Announcements from the PLE-2CS two-zone call station can be routed to zone 1 or zone 2, or both. Announcements from the tel/70 V input or inputs 1 & 2 are routed to both zones. Input 1 can be used for a PLE-1CS allcall call station or any other microphone or call station with a PTT contact. The unit also has a line output to connect the preamplifier output before zone selection, making it possible to create a third zone. This output can be switched to music only, for example, so that music on hold can be provided for the telephone system. Loop-through input and output connections enable external sound processing equipment (e.g., an equalizer or Plena feedback suppressor) while maintaining a balanced connection to the amplifiers.
