Ashly Pema is a series of mixer amplifiers. Pema stands for ‘Protea-Equipped Media Amplifiers’. This means that the Pemas are equipped with a digitale signal processor, a class-D amplifier and 8 x 8 matrix mixer in one housing. This has the advantage of saving both rack space and installation costs.
The Pema mixer amplifiers have have eight Euro connector balanced Mic/Line inputs (one of which for TEL-PBX as well), eight pairs of unbalanced, summed mono RCA connectors, eight Euro connector Preamp/Aux outputs, four or eight speaker outputs, plus a 10/100 Ethernetpoort for easy installation. Due to the 8-in x 8-out matrix mixer, it is possible to assign any input to any output(s). Each in- and output can be muted, individually. The full Protea Suite, which comes with each Pema as a standard, offers an extensive, powerful DSP with a lot of options. This gives six individually configurable DSP blocks, per input and per output. With it come a lot of options, like dynamics, gain control, EQ, crossover, delay, metering and pink/white noise generator. In addition to the standard options of the Protea Suite, the amplifiers of the Pema series are equipped with gain sharing automatic microphone mixing, an automatic feedback suppressor, ambient noise detection and adjustment. The mixer amplifiers are very energy efficient. Depending on the temperature, the speed of the fan is determined to maintain the right operation temperature. In addition, the amplifiers have a real time clock, which makes it possible, using the event planner, to switch themselves to stand-by or completely off.
To control the Pema mixer amplifiers remotely, there are various possibilities. For instance, Ashly has developed a Remote Control app for the iPad. In addition, there are various wall control panels available: the WR-1e, the WR-1.5e, the WR-2e and the WR-5e. The neWR-5 is a wall control panel as well, this one is network programmable. Lastly the Pema’s can be controlled using the FR-8, the FR-16, the RD-8C and the RW-8C fader remotes. The function of the buttons on the Pemas can be switched off, so others can’t control the amplifiers.
In many sound installations, an entire rack of audio devices can be replaced with a single Pema. This makes the mixer amplifiers suitable for use in, among others, the following applications.
Within the Pema series, there are various models. First of all, the Pema has either four or eight channels. Then there are various wattages: the models are available in 125 Watts or 250 Watts per channel. Lastly, there are Low-Z and 100 volt versions available.
