Whirlwind PRESSMITE - 1 Line In to 12 Mic/2 Line Out Active Press Box

The Whirlwind PRESSMITE is a professional, compact, active press feed box, having the capacity to distribute 12 clean mic level signals and 2 line level signals, and featuring high isolation between outputs. It provides 60 dB of gain adjustment on input, which accepts mic or line level signals.

The PRESSMITE features a built-in headphone amp, and is powered by a pair of standard 9V batteries that typically provide more than 8 hours of continuous operation. A Battery OK LED is also provided for monitoring. In MIC input mode, 18V phantom power is available, and the 3-segment LED headroom display enables quick level adjustment.

The PRESSMITE is a rugged, useful tool designed to withstand the rigors and the hectic environment of press conferences and other public broadcast events.
