Description
The INTUSONIC INTUWORX PAA71+ is a professional 7-channel mic/line mixer designed to act as the central control point of an installed sound system. Built for commercial AV environments, it combines multiple microphone and line-level inputs, wireless audio connectivity, talkover priority and emergency integration within a robust 19-inch rackmount chassis.
Designed for flexibility and reliability, the PAA71+ is ideal for venues that need simple day-to-day audio control with the connectivity required for professional installation.
Multi-Input Mixing for Commercial Systems
The PAA71+ provides five multi-purpose inputs, each able to accept either balanced microphone signals or unbalanced stereo line-level sources. This makes it highly adaptable for systems where microphones, media players and external audio sources need to be managed from one central rack unit.
This makes it suitable for:
- Bars, pubs and restaurants
- Retail and showroom audio systems
- Fitness studios and leisure venues
- Education and presentation spaces
- Commercial AV installations requiring multiple local sources
Dedicated FOH and Wireless Audio Input
In addition to the five main inputs, the PAA71+ includes a balanced stereo input that is particularly useful for sources positioned further away from the rack. This input can also be switched to receive audio from the front-panel 3.5mm TRS connection or the integrated INTUSONIC LINKOUSTIC 5.2 wireless audio receiver.
This provides a practical solution for:
- Temporary device connection
- Guest audio playback
- Wireless music streaming
- Front-of-house or remote source integration
Dedicated Microphone Input with Talkover
A separate microphone input with adjustable talkover priority allows announcements to be heard clearly over background music. When speech is detected, the mixer can automatically reduce the music level, helping to maintain intelligibility without manual volume adjustment.
This is particularly useful for:
- Staff announcements
- Instructor microphones
- Venue paging
- Presentation and speech applications
Front-Panel Control with Installer Setup Options
Each main input channel includes front-panel level control and 2-band EQ, allowing easy adjustment of connected sources. Rear-panel gain controls help installers balance the system during commissioning, ensuring the front-panel controls remain practical for daily use.
The mixer also includes a stereo master output with an 8-LED level meter, rear maximum level adjustment and mono switching, helping ensure consistent output to amplifiers, processors or zone controllers.
Emergency and External Mute Integration
For commercial environments, the PAA71+ includes emergency signal input and output mute connections. These allow the mixer to integrate with announcement, evacuation or external control systems where required.
This makes it a strong choice for fixed installations where background music and local sources must work alongside building-wide priority audio requirements.
Monitoring and Recording Outputs
The PAA71+ includes an adjustable monitor output that can be used for stereo headphones or as a balanced mono output, providing useful monitoring capability during setup or operation. An unbalanced record output is also included, allowing the mixer signal to be fed to recording equipment or secondary systems.
Professional Rackmount Construction
The PAA71+ is housed in a full metal 19-inch rackmount chassis with detachable rack ears and handles. Its robust construction, clear front-panel layout and professional connectivity make it well suited to permanent AV racks and commercial sound system installations.
A Flexible Mic/Line Mixer for Installed Sound
The INTUSONIC INTUWORX PAA71+ delivers a versatile and reliable mixing solution for commercial audio systems. With seven input channels, wireless audio, talkover priority, emergency integration and balanced output connectivity, it provides a professional rackmount control hub for modern installed sound applications.
