Thank you for buying the P4R Receiver. The P4R is a component in the PSM® 400 family of wire-  
less personal monitors. When used with a P4T Transmitter, it provides the many advantages of a  
wireless, in-ear monitoring system, including:  
Improved Sound Quality - high fidelity without the risk of feedback,  
Increased Mobility - your mix moves with you,  
Personal Control - through volume adjustment and MixMode®.

MEDIUM: 1-4 hours of operation.  
NOTE: If the receiver is receiving  
only one signal, it will be in mono.  
LOW: less than 1 hours of operation.  
5. High Frequency Equalization (EQ):  
Adds 6 dB at 10 kHz for increased treble  
response.  
6. Limiter (LIM): The limiter provides pro-  
tection against loud signal.  
NOTE: If no bars are present  
within the battery life gauge,  
change the battery immediately.

MIXMODE/STEREO  
The P4R receiver receives two signals (1/L and 2/R) from the P4T transmitter. The P4R processes  
these signals in either stereo or MixMode:

STEREO: In stereo, the signals remain separate so 1/L is heard through the left earphone and  
2/R is heard through the right earphone. The balance knob on the receiver adjusts the balance  
between the left and right earphones.  
MIXMODE: In MixMode, the signals are “mixed” in relation to one another using the balance knob,  
blending into one signal. The mixed signal is sent to both the left and right earphones.

Step One: The P4R re-

Step Three: The P4R  
sends the mixed signal to  
both earphones.

MIXMODE IN APPLICATIONS  
MixMode is most useful when two distinct mixes are provided to the P4T transmitter, such as a  
band mix and a vocal mix. MixMode combines these two signals into one monitor mix and allows  
you to control this mix during the performance with the P4R receiver. For example, if the band over-  
powers the vocals in the mix, increase the level of the vocals and decrease the level of the band  
by simply adjusting the balance knob.
