Features Important to DJs
Universal internal power supply. When traveling, finding power supply
adapters is difficult. The Empath accepts 100 to 240 VAC, 50/60 Hz power, for
use anywhere in the world without adapters. Auto-Gain prevents performance-wrecking
swings in program level when changing sources. The music is never too soft or
clipped. FlexFX is a post-fader external stereo effects loop with individual Dry/Wet
pan controls for Mic and Input Channels 1, 2 and 3. Penny & Giles faders are
simply the best money can buy. Smooth, accurate and reliable mixing is made possible
by employing the most respected name in audio faders. Two kinds of fader caps
are provided for different mixing preferences: soft rubber caps for smooth mixing,
and hard plastic caps for fast mixing. Flash-Cue allows the DJ to rapidly select
Crossfader A-Cue-sum or Crossfader B-Cue-sum with the flick of a switch, normally
slow or complicated on other mixers. Multiple Outputs. Nothing is more frustrating
than arriving at a club and finding their jacks don't match. Systems may have
XLR, TRS or RCA connectors. The Empath provides all three. Low and High headphone
tone controls allow the DJ to match their mixer to their headphones. Both 1/8"
and 1/4" headphone jacks are simultaneously usable. More headphones are compatible
with the Empath. Two assignable CD triggers work with any CD player with fader
start ability. Accelerated-Slope, full-cut, 3-band tone controls are the most
flexible and highest quality available. Crossfader assign switches allow any Input
Channel to be mixed on the A-side, B-side or Post Crossfader. Level meters view
Stereo Cue, Stereo Master Mix, Split Cue or Main Output signals. All of these
features are wrapped in the smallest, most portable chassis of any three-channel
mixer. Excellent control ergonomics allow this small package to feel as open and
comfortable as much larger units.
