Palmer PMS 02 PRO - 2 CHANNEL MICRO SPLITTER

A classic on the field for signal distribution, in the Palmer spirit

Palmer splitters address an unavoidable reality in sound reinforcement and event production: distributing a source signal to multiple destinations without hassle and without audible degradation. The Palmer PMS 02 fits this "ready-to-use" logic, designed for technicians who need to simultaneously manage front of house, monitors, recording, or broadcast, while maintaining a stable, silent, and reliable system.

Who is the Palmer PMS 02 for and when to use it?

The PMS 02 is particularly suited for live performances, fixed installations (venues, rehearsal studios, multi-zone locations), and configurations requiring parallel routings. Typically, it allows sending a microphone output to multiple inputs simultaneously (front of house console, monitor console, broadcast truck, recorder), but it can also distribute a signal from a console's main outputs to several amplifiers when you need to sound multiple areas with the same source.

Isolation, silence, and reliability: what makes the difference with the PMS 02

A splitter is not just a simple "Y": in the field, signal distribution can quickly reveal issues with grounds, hum, or equipment compatibility. The PMS 02 relies on a passive design and isolation transformers sized to limit any signal alteration while providing real ease of use during complex setups.

Two transformer-isolated outputs

Per channel, the PMS 02 offers two outputs passing through a 1:1 isolation transformer. This isolation is valuable whenever multiple devices powered differently are interconnected: it helps avoid ground loops and maintain a clean signal, especially in electrically noisy environments (stage, TV studios, temporary installations).

Groundlift: an immediate solution when hum appears

Each channel features a Groundlift switch: a simple but often decisive tool to quickly solve a buzzing problem without having to redo all the cabling. This kind of detail saves time during soundcheck and secures live broadcasts.

Balance or unbalance according to your audio chain

The PMS 02 can also be used as a balancer or unbalancer of signals. This flexibility makes the unit useful beyond pure splitting, especially when you need to interface different types of equipment or adapt routing to an existing infrastructure.
