The PZ-Pro is a two channel instrument preamp, switcher, and performance control station designed for stage musicians who are serious about their tone and like being in the driver's seat. Dual input channels allow you to switch between two sources or blend them together, with full control over the sound of each instrument, and the ability to bring effects pedals and a signal booster into the mix with a single footswitch.

Each channel on the PZ-Pro has its own semi-parametric equalizer section and input level, along with individual filter controls to reduce feedback on stage. Channel-B also features a microphone input to allow any dynamic or condenser microphone to be used,including clip-on instrument mics or even vocal microphones. An FX Loop with a wet/dryknob provides the ability to blend in as much or as little pedal effects as desired, with a footswitch to bring them in and out of the signal chain at a moment's notice.

Finally,once your tone is completely dialed-in, balanced XLR direct outs feed the PA system or 
a recording interface, with both Pre-EQ and Post-EQ outputs available.
