More about QSC’s MP-M Zone Mixers

Easy to configure and simple to operate, QSC’s MP-M series of music and paging mixers are designed for retail and hospitality applications. MP-M mixers process high-quality foreground/ background audio and route it from various sources to multiple zones. They are a great choice for live mixing in business applications that require live speech reinforcement, such as banquet halls, conferences, entertainment venues, fitness clubs, hotel meeting rooms, public presentations, and more.

All MP-M mixers are equipped with cue bus outputs for auditioning zones and tracks, a USB port for storing and recalling design files, presets, and scenes. Two general-purpose inputs enable external control triggers, while an Ethernet port for wireless connection provides access to two apps that streamline the installation and operation processes: MP Install (for iOS/Android tablets, Windows, and Mac OS PCs) and MP Manage (for iOS/Android tablets and smartphones).

All inputs feature responsive, musical processing via high and low-pass filters, 4-band parametric EQ, a gate, and a dynamics processor that functions as an automatic gain control or a compressor. Any combination of input channels may be designated as sources for any output zone. Designate two channels to allow a higher-priority source to take over the audio (such as for paging or announcements). There are also processing blocks for auto-loudness, equalization, and limiting. All outputs include 12 anti-feedback notch filters with a setup wizard.

Optimize your loudspeaker system. MP-M mixers include a dedicated loudspeaker processing section with preset Intrinsic Correction voicings for QSC loudspeakers. You can also create, save, and recall voices using the 6-band fully-parametric equalizer along with high-pass and low-pass filters with a choice of filters and slope.

QSC MP-M40 Features

• Easy configuration and design: MP Install app gives you an attractive graphic user environment with an intuitive workflow and controls that make it simple to manage all the inputs and outputs.
• Workflow Wizard: Helps the installer keep track of tasks and easily navigate the mixer.
• QSC loudspeaker voicings: Apply Intrinsic Correction (factory FIR/IIR presets) to QSC loudspeakers to maximize the performance and value of the system.
• Customized control level: Fine tune controls to allow as much or as little as the installation requires on the available MP-M Series control peripherals.
• Wired/wireless control options: Use optional MP-MFC wall-mounted controllers with graphic display to control zone source and level or recall presets. MP Manage app expands these control options with wireless, more granular controls. In both cases, facility staff may be restricted to only those controls that they are authorized to use.
• Complimentary aesthetics: MP-M Series mixers match the appearance aesthetic of the QSC MP-A Series music and paging amplifiers for an installation that looks as good as it sounds.
