The XLR microphone input is equipped with an extremely high quality, ultra-low noise, discrete preamp.

The +48V phantom power for condenser microphones can be switched in groups of six.
The Line Input and Channel Insert are implemented as jack sockets.
The Gain can be controlled in the range 0-60 dB.
The switchable Lo Cut filter (80Hz, 18dB) serves to eliminate low-frequency noise. A very typical DYNACORD feature is the asymmetrical Voicing Filter by means of which, if desired, the voice can be powerfully emphasized in the mix.

Optimized for ease-of-use, the 3-band semi-parametric equalizer makes it possible even for unpracticed users to perform the requisite corrections swiftly and intuitively.

With its extended buss structure, the PowerMate-3 offers very flexible configuration options. In all, 6 AUX busses are available:

2 (FX) are assiged to the two effects sends;
2 (AUX) can be configured either as monitor or effects sends by means of a switch in the Main section;
2 (MON) are designed as monitor sends, each being equipped with a sweepable anti-feedback filter in the Master section.
