ECLER eHMA60

Product overview

The ECLER eHMA60 is a compact self-powered audio mixer with one MIC input and two MIC/LINE stereo inputs, and a 60 W mono output for 4 Ω loudspeakers or 70 V / 100 V lines.

It includes talkover on input 1 for paging and emergencies, a 2-band tone control for the mix, auto standby, a MUTE port, +24 V phantom power and a universal 24 V DC power supply. Input and output levels use rotary knobs while tone controls are set with a screwdriver, so non-technical staff can run it safely, and it needs no fan. The half-width unit comes with a rack mount kit for 19 inch racks.

Background music and paging

Microphones (200 to 600 Ω) connect on Euroblock, line sources on RCA, each with a rear GAIN control. Talkover on input 1 attenuates the music by 30 dB while an announcement is made.

Low or high impedance

Use LOW-Z OUT for 4 Ω loudspeakers, or the HIGH-Z terminals (0 V and 70 V or 100 V) for loudspeakers with line transformers up to 60 W in total.

Safe operation

A dry contact on MUTE silences the mixer from a fire detection system, and auto standby lowers consumption to under 4 W after 2 minutes without signal.

In the box

• 1 x eHMA60 powered mixer
• 1 x 24 V DC power supply
• 1 x rack mount kit

3. Switch on TK for the microphone input.
4. Set OUTPUT VOL so CLIP only blinks on the low frequencies.

Tip: Talkover lowers the music by 30 dB during announcements.

Workflow 2: Restaurant and bar

Dining areas with background music and a host microphone.

Connections

Setup

1. Connect the loudspeakers to the matching output.
