Peavey PVi 8500 Powered Mixer

The Peavey PVi 8500 is a 400-watt 7-channel powered mixer built for live sound reinforcement. It combines amplification and mixing in a single chassis with combination XLR and 0.25 inch inputs.

Solo performers and small ensembles needing

This mixer suits acts that want a compact system with enough channels for vocals, instruments and playback devices. The FLS Feedback Locating System and Kosmos-C processing help shape tone and control feedback without external gear. Bands requiring more than seven input channels or separate monitor mixes should look at larger consoles. Installations needing rackmount format or networked audio control will need a different solution.

Seven channels with 400 watts of peak power

The seven combination inputs handle microphones and line-level sources simultaneously for typical small-venue sets. 400 watts drives main speakers with headroom for clean peaks during dynamic material. The 9-band graphic EQ and selectable Main or Monitor output routing cover essential front-of-house and stage monitoring. Very large venues or high-SPL applications will exceed the available power and channel count.

Questions about this item

Do I need to bring my own microphones and speakers to use the 400-watt 7-channel powered mixer?

Yes — the unit provides 400 watts of peak power and seven combination XLR and .25-inch inputs, so you must connect microphones or line sources and passive speakers to hear any sound.

Can I keep using my older dynamic microphones with the combination XLR and .25-inch input jacks on this mixer?

Absolutely — the combo jacks accept standard XLR plugs from dynamic or condenser microphones and .25-inch plugs from instruments, so legacy mics and cables work without adapters.

How can I verify the built-in 24-bit digital effects are actually processing signal after I power up?

Engage the footswitchable effects defeat, turn up the effects send on a channel, and listen for reverb or delay on the main or monitor outputs; the FLS Feedback Locating System LEDs will also light when the EQ section is active.
