Delivers The Message

 

The P4800 System Processor is a 4-input, 8-output digital audio processor that is perfect for any sound system. With an intuitive computer interface that doesn’t require a software manual or training course, drag-and-drop processing blocks and a tamper-proof front panel, it performs all the necessary functions between the mixers and the power amplifiers, including:

  • Processor blocks to handle post-mix and loudspeaker processing (graphic and parametric equalizers, digital feedback reducers, dynamics processors, delay elements and crossovers)
  • A full 4x8 matrix mixer
  • 128 presets
  • External control options

 

Kent Morris, Paul Baloche and the P4800 in Action

"Recently, Paul Baloche asked me to stop by his church in Lindale, Texas to see if I could improve the sound system response. While the system components were good products from reputable manufacturers, the room acoustics were less than ideal, with a low ceiling and reflective parallel walls.

Fortunately, the amp rack housed a Shure P4800 processor. I was able to connect my laptop and reduce errant frequency levels as well as taper the subwoofer response to avoid the bass notes accentuated by the room.

Within an hour, we were able to bring the praise band in for rehearsal. The team was amazed at the system's increased impact, especially since we were able to drop the overall level several decibels. Paul noted the improvement in his monitor mix and how the drums' presence was restored in the house mix. All the improvements were made free of charge thanks to the P4800's powerful DSP (Digital Signal Processing)."
