OPERATING MANUAL AND USER GUIDE

INTRODUCTION
Congratulations on the purchase of your PMX portable powered mixer. The Wharfedale Pro PMX
Series is the result of many years experience in the use, design and manufacture of professional
audio products. We take great pride in engineering and building every Wharfedale Pro product and
wish to thank you for entrusting us with your sound.

From the time that Gilbert Briggs built his first loudspeaker in 1932, to the present day, Wharfedale
have maintained the same standard of quality in components, workmanship and performance.

Please take the time to read this manual completely in order to ensure that you get the most from
your PMX portable powered mixer.

ABOUT THE PMX SERIES


Designed to be a perfect balance of portability and power the PMX Series is suitable for use in a
wide range of portable sound applications. Everything you need to mix and amplify microphones
and line level sources is included in one box, with an ergonomic carry handle to aid transportation.

The one box concept speeds up your setup time and allows you to start your performance quicker
than ever before.

All models feature built in digital FX processing, expanding your creativity and improving your sound
quality without the need for additional expensive and often cumbersome processors. A graphic EQ
allows fine tuning of the overall mix.

OPERATING MANUAL AND USER GUIDE

PMX SYSTEM OVERVIEW


The Wharfedale Pro PMX System provides you with everything you need to get up and running for
a public performance.

• 1x PMX powered mixer


• 2x PT-X 2-way loudspeakers
• 1x DM 1.0 dynamic microphone
• 1x 4.5m microphone cable
• 2x speaker cables

A PMX System package comprises of a PMX powered mixer (PMX500 or PMX700), a pair of 2-way
loudspeakers (PTX-8 with the PMX 500 System and PTX-12 with the PMX700 System), a DM1.0
dynamic microphone and the necessary cables to connect the system.

Setting up a PMX System has been designed to be simple even for absolute beginners. Connect
the components as shown in the wiring diagram to create a basic vocal PA. Adding more equipment
is simple, always consult the user manual of any 3rd party equipment to ensure you will get the best
performance.

QUICK START GUIDE


In order to get up and running with your PMX System follow the steps below:

1. Zero the mixer. This involves setting all level and send controls to minimum and all EQ controls
to 0dB.

2. Make all connections for audio and power as per the wiring diagrams:
1. Ensure that the power switch is on the off position before connecting the AC supply.
2. Connect the microphone using the supplied XLR cable
3. Connect each speaker to the main outputs using the supplied speaker cables

3. If your microphones require phantom power use the rear panel switch to activate +48V supply.

4. Turn the power switch on.

5. Raise the level control for each of your connected sources, ensure that the Peak LED does not
constantly illuminate.

6. Raise the Mix Level control until you achieve the desired Sound Pressure Level (SPL).

NOTE
If the sound becomes distorted at higher volumes you may need to add extra equipment to achieve
the desired SPL, otherwise you may cause permanent damage to your system by overloading it.

PMX Powered Mixer

USB INTERFACE
The USB connector enables computers with USB connectivity to interface directly with the PMX 710
mixer for full duplex recording and playback. In recent years the introduction of USB connectivity
has ushered a new appreciation of the capabilities of computer audio, helping to fuse both digital
and analogue and open up endless possibilities for the recording musician.

The internal AD (Analogue to Digital) and DA (Digital to Analogue) converters are 16-bit/48KHz
enabling recording and playback above CD quality, ensuring that recordings that you make with a
PMX 710 have outstanding quality.

The PMX 710 is fully class compliant and requires no drivers when used with modern operating
systems. Mac OSX, Windows XP, Vista and 7 will require no additional driver software.

Windows XP Installation

Simply choose the device in the following location: Start/Settings/Control Panel/Sounds and Audio
Devices/Audio

Mac OSX Installation

Simply select as an input and output device using the "Audio MIDI Setup" page, you can find this
easily using the spotlight function.
