The MDS 1000 compact systems combine a reliable amplifier, an MP3 player, an SD/MMC card drive, a USB socket for connection to external storage units and a digital FM tuner in a single piece of equipment that also features a range of functions typical of sound-broadcasting systems. 

The XLR sockets on the rear panel can be separately configured as microphone inputs (with or without phantom power supply) or as line inputs. 

The operating mode can be selected by means of the specific three-position switches above the sockets. 

Each of these inputs has its own level control so as to be able to adjust the amplitude of the various different signals suitably. 

In addition, the MIC/LINE 1 microphone input has an automatic precedence function (VOX): when speaking with the microphone connected to this input, all the music and microphone inputs will be automatically muted. It is possible to connect all dynamic microphones and the MBT 6400S microphone bases to the MDS 1000 Compact Systems. • MP3 file player via USB, SD or MMC card • FM digital tuner • n°3 MIC./LINE inputs with operating mode selector switches.
