Peavey Escort 6000

Connecting Microphone(s) or Line Input(s)
The Escort’s powered mixer is designed to work with any good-quality, balanced, dynamic or condenser microphone such as Peavey’s PV
®
i
series of microphones. Connect the microphone to the XLR (three-pin) input connector as shown (Fig.7). If using multiple microphones, connect
them in the order they will be on stage for easy adjustment to each microphone. To connect a line level device such as a keyboard, use a 1/4”
instrument cable and insert into the center of the XLR-1/4” combo connector as shown (Fig.8).

Connecting a Powered Sub-Woofer
The Escort
®
6000 features a Sub-Woofer output that is internally crossed over at
100Hz. This output is line level so it will need to be connected to a POWERED Sub or
a Power Amplier that will then drive your passive Subs. Be sure the power for your
Escort and your Sub-Woofer is turned OFF. Insert a 1/4” cable into the Sub-Woofer
Output (Fig.5) on the back of the Escort, then insert the other end of the cable into
your POWERED Sub-Woofer or power amplier input.
Connecting a Monitor
The Escort 6000 includes a full-range line level Monitor output. This is to be used
when monitors are required for a performance. This output is line level so you will
need to use POWERED Monitors or a separate power amplier to drive passive
monitors. Be sure the power to your Escort and your Monitors is turned OFF. Insert a
1/4” cable into the Monitor Output on the back of your Escort (Fig.6), then insert the
other end of the cable to the input on your POWERED Monitors or power amplier.
This output can also be sent to another mixer or recording device to record the full-
range signal from your performance. The level of the monitor mix can be controlled by
the master monitor control (Fig. 6a).
