Lowell MP-2 Active Monitor Panel, 12-Channels, 2 Rack Units

Lowel''s MP-2 is an active monitor panel with 12x1 selectable visual and aural monitoring. Six channels accept line level inputs (-10dBv to +10dBv) for monitoring amplifiers or other critical points in the signal chain, and six channels accept speaker level inputs (8 ohm or 0-70V) for monitoring the output of sound reinforcement systems. Visual monitoring with precise measurement of selected line or speaker input is accomplished using an analog meter with VU and voltage scales. Subjective aural monitoring of selected line or speaker input is accomplished through 3x5 inch internal speaker, which may also be accessed using the monaural headphone output (stereo jack) on the front of the panel.

Lowell MP-2 Features:

• Provides visual and aural monitoring of up to 12 lines.
• Inputs 1–6: accept line level (-10dBV, 0dBV or +10dBV).
• Inputs 7–12: accept speaker lines (70V, 25V or 8 ohm).
• Quick visual reference with analog meter scales.
• Versatile aural reference of selected line with 3” x 5” speaker and 1/4” headphone jack.
