NEW FEATURES & FEATURES THAT VESTAX MADE STANDARD
NEW
FEATURES THAT VESTAX MADE STANDARD
・Double Panel. Vestax invented the double panel
system in order to open up the faceplate for fast
moves and reduce personal injury (fingernails).
This full battle worthy layout was designed with a
lot of advice from top-level scratch and
performance DJs and has become the layout
standard for scratch and performance mixers
since.
・User Replaceable Parts. It is a given that you
will punish your mixer enough to need to replace the
cross fader, an input fader and possibly the input
select switch. Thus, Vestax came up with the
concept of user replaceable parts. You can easily
replace and or upgrade the faders and the input
switches on the PMC-05Pro series by yourself in
just a few minutes.
・Cross Fader Curve Control. Vestax faders have
an undeniably great feel about them. They are
smooth, responsive and strong enough to
withstand most punishment. But making them
even more performance friendly is that the curve of
the fader can be preset or adjusted to suit your
playing style.
・Effects routing. 1 x Effects Send and 1 x Effects
Receive means that you can hook up an external
effects unit for use during play. The volume of
your send and receive signal is easily controlled
through 2 x volume knobs and the signal can be sent
to PGM1, PGM2 or both simultaneously.
・New PCV Cross Fader. The new PMC-05ProIII
comes standard with Vestax's latest proprietary
cross fader. Extra smooth, fast and amazingly
precise, this plastic conductive volume fader is
built to last and survive the most intense play
possible.
・New Input Switch. Designed for rugged and fast use,
this new input switch will stand up to just about any
punishment and is designed to allow quick and
constant changing between phono and line inputs. It
is also omni positional meaning that you can have it
set to its standard position or a number of angles it
for easy use.
・New Look. The new PMC-05ProIII has not only
undergone a technology upgrade but it also sports a
new look with a new set of rotary knobs. These new
knobs are built to reduce slippage and improve
fast access at all times.
・Monitor Cue. Select between monitoring the cue
signal or the master signal. Great for practice and
live play.
・Improved EQ specifications. The EQ section on the
PMC-05ProIII has an improved frequency
response of -26dB to +6dB.
