F E ATU R E S
・The PMC-007, like its predecessors the PMC-05Pro &
PMC-07Pro, is a professional 2-channel (PGM)
battle worthy mixer perfect for serious scratch DJs
who are looking for improved sound quality, control and
flexible options to increase their creative potential.
・2 Channel scratch mixer with an open battle zone
around the Cross Fader and Input Faders making it
perfect for fast scratching and battle moves.
・Cross Fader Freeze (Mute). Means that you can
practice a scratch or mix on the master fader
without the sound being broadcast through the
Master section. Pressing this button freezes the
master output level of that channel so that what
happens on the cross fader can only be heard in
the headphone monitor section.
・ReX (Rapid Exchange Fader System). In addition to
high-grade third generation PCV faders (CF & IF)
the PMC-007 also incorporates Vestax's latest
fader exchange system. These faders can be
replaced in under 30 seconds, freeing up time on the
fly and making service a breeze. Think of the
future applications for a fader system that can be
replaced at whim in under 30 seconds!
・3 Band Isolator on each PGM with proprietary
Vestax infinity cut and +4dB boost.
・Scratch EQ. Simply press the scratch EQ button to
instantly set the isolator EQ on that channel to an
optimal scratch setting of HI = MID = and LOW = .
Sure to open up some new moves in how it is used
this a great feature for creating some new variant
acoustic scratches.
・Effects routing on both channels with advanced
monitoring features for all environments. This
effects loop can be used for group session
turntablism.
・Balanced XLR outputs, unbalanced 1/4 inch out
and Booth out.
・MIC with 2 Band EQ and effect loop input
option.
・1/4 headphone and mini jack options.

!BOOTH LEVEL
qMIC LEVEL
This knob is used to adjust the level of output through the
Booth section.
This switch is used to adjust the signal level of the Main
MIC input.
!MONITOR SELEC T SWITC H
wMIC EQ
This switch is used to select which type of monitor signal,
either CUE or MASTER, is heard in headphones connected
to this mixer. When set to CUE, both signals (including the
EQ settings on each) will be heard. Using the CF Monitor
Fader @ will alter what is heard in the headphones.
The2-Band MIC EQ feature is used to adjust the equalization
level of the High & Low frequencies on the MIC input
signal. These levels can be adjusted to/by +/-12dB.
eEFFEC T SEND LEVEL
This knob is used to adjust the signal level from an
external effects device connected to the AUX send input
jack on the rear panel of this mixer.
!REC EIVE C UE SWITC H
This switch has three settings, which in turn control how
the Effect Received signal is monitored. When set to
BLEND, users will hear both the effect receive signal and
either the Cue or Master output (see 15 for more). When
set to OFF, no effect receive signal will be heard. When
set to SOLO, only the effect receive signal will be heard.
rGAIN
The GAIN controls (on both PGM 1 & 2) are used to adjust
input signal levels. For optimal acoustic quality first set the
level of the input fader @ to a position of 7 or 8, then, make
any necessary adjustments to the GAIN control so that a
sufficient signal is fed through the channel (PGM) without
distorting.
!POWER INDIC ATOR
This LED will be illuminated when powered.
!EFFEC T SEND ON/ OFF SWITC H
tHI ISOLATOR
When on this feature will send the PGM signal (1 & or 2)
to the effects send jack found on the rear panel.
This knob is used to adjust the HI frequency signal level
relevant to each PGM.
!EFFEC T REC EIVE LEVEL
yMID ISOLATOR
This fader when moved from DRY to WET is used to adjust
the signal level received from any external effects device
connected to the Effect Receive input located on the rear
panel of this unit.
This knob is used to adjust the MID frequency signal
level relevant to each PGM.
uLOW ISOLATOR
This knob is used to adjust the LOW frequency signal
level relevant to each PGM.
CAUTION
A function can be changed with the switch(*) under a
top panel. Only the level of the signal (RCV sound)
inputted from the EFFECT RCV jack is adjusted at
the tim e of Switch OFF (at the tim e of a initial setup),
and it changes to the balance regulation volum e of
RCV sound and the sound of M ASTER OUT at the
tim e ofSwitch ON.
iSC RATC H EQ
This button is used to activate the scratch EQ feature
(new) on this mixer. The scratch EQ feature essentially
disregards the manual isolator EQ setting and passes all
signal feeds through a Mid Boost and Hi Boost EQ and
Low Cut circuit (per PGM), which is designed to
generate the best scratch EQ setting possible.
@PHONO/ LINE SELEC TOR
oSC RATC H EQ INDIC ATOR
This LED will be illuminated when the Scratch EQ
feature i is on.
This switch is used to determine which input source is
sent to the PGM. Once an input is connected to the
correct PGM jack users are able to switch back and
forward between either phono or line signals, effectively
creating a type of transformer scratch.
!PGM BALANC E
This fader is used to adjust the stereo balance on each
PGM. The PGM Balance can also be used to adjust an
unbalanced stereo image. From the center position a
movement to the right will increase the volume of the
signal R over L and vice versa.
@REHEARSAL MUTE SWITC H
When activated this switch restricts the signal path of the
PGM to only the headphone monitor, allowing you to
practice a mix or scratch using the master CF but without
the sound being outputted. Moreover, any adjustment to
the monitor CF will have no effect to the headphone signal
whilst the Freeze feature is active. Pressing both PGM 1 &
2 Freeze switches will result in all output being muted.
When PGM 1 Freeze is on, the LED indicator above the button
will illuminate and all signals from PGM will be routed only to
the headphone section and thus not outputted. Moving the CF
from position 2 to 1 will have only an effect in the headphones,
facilitating practice of a mix point or scratch point.
!C F REVERSE SWITC H
This switch is used to reverse the direction of the cross
fader (CF) such that if reversed position 1 becomes position
2 and vice versa. When reverse mode is activated the CF
REV LED @ will be illuminated in the main LED section.
!MASTER LEVEL
This knob is used to adjust the signal levels from the Line
Out connections found on the rear panel of this unit.
!STEREO/ MONO SELEC T SWITC H
When PGM 2 Freeze is on, the LED indicator above the button
will illuminate and all signals from PGM will be routed only to
the headphone section and thus not outputted. Moving the CF
This switch is used to select either a mono or stereo
signal output for the Line Out section. Regardless of your
choice, the L & R levels will remain the same.

from position 1 to 2 will have only an effect in the headphones,
facilitating practice of a mix point or scratch point.
@LED LEVEL METER
As above.
@REHEARSAL MUTE/ FREEZE INDIC ATOR LED
When the Rehearsal Mute/Freeze feature is active this
LED will illuminate.
@C F REVERSE INDIC ATOR.
This LED is illuminated when the CF has been reversed as
described in !.
@INPUT FADER
@C ROSS FADER (C F)
An input fader is used to adjust the input level on a given
PGM. The input fader on this unit is a PCV fader and utilizes
Vestax ReX fader exchange technology. This fader is user
replaceable. For comprehensive information on how to replace
this ReX PCV Fader please see the "How To Change The
Fader Unit" section of this manual.
Assuming that the CF reverse is off, Rehearsal Mute is off, and
that the input levels of both PGM 1 and PGM 2 are properly
set, then when the CF is at position 1 the signals from PGM 1
can be heard and when the CF is at position 2 the signals from
PGM 2 can be heard.
@MONITER LEVEL
@LEVEL METER SELEC T SWITC H
This fader is used to adjust the volume level heard in the
headphone section.
This switch is used to select which signal level is displayed.
When set to PGM, both sides of this LED section will
display the current PGM level, with the left side showing
PGM 1 and the right side showing PGM 2. When set to
MASTER, the two LED indicators will show the L&R
channels of the master signal being outputted.

This fader is used to adjust which PGM is heard in the
headphone section.

Rotating this knob in a clockwise manner will produce a steep
curve more suited to scratching cutting. An anticlockwise
rotation will have the opposite effect of producing a gentler
slope more suited to long mixing.
