Features: 15"
woofer, dual-piezo horn. Four input channels, each with volume, effects
send, and reverb level knobs. 3-band EQ on three channels, 4-band EQ on
the fourth channel. Master volume, effects send, and reverb level
knobs. Switchable global limiting. Black vinyl covering. Casters.
Attached power cord. Interfacing: Balanced
1/4" inputs on channels 1-3, balanced 1/4" and XLR mic inputs on
channel 4. Post reverb/effects 1/4" and XLR outputs, 1/4" effects send
