Statement of RoHS Compliance
PMI Audio Group manufactures complete electronic products
which are covered by the European Union's "Removal of
Hazardous Substances" directive 2002/95/EC (RoHS). This
directive seeks to eliminate toxic substances from the
manufacturing process, such that when equipment is disposed
of at the end of its life cycle, the materials it contains do not
contaminate the environment and pose health risks. Banned
substances are lead, mercury, cadmium, hexavalent
chromium, polybrominated biphenyls (PBB) and poly-
brominated diphenyl ethers (PBDE). Lead is used together
with tin in solder connections to reduce the melting point of
solder. Lead-free solder requires higher soldering
temperatures which in turn places greater thermal stress on
components.
RoHS
COMPLIANT
PMI Audio Group takes seriously its obligations under the
RoHS directive and insists that its factories use only
components that are certified RoHS compliant, as well as lead-
free solder. In a very few cases the necessary components
may not yet be available to the world market but we work
continuously to eliminate any such exceptions at the earliest
opportunity. Our printed Circuit Boards (PCB's) and all
soldered joints have been lead-free since 2005.

Statement of WEEE Policy
PMI Audio Group manufactures many complete electronic
products which are covered by the European Union's "Waste
Electric and Electronic Equipment" directive 2002/96/EC
(WEEE). This directive seeks to ensure that waste electric and
electronic equipment is disposed of in an environmentally
responsible manner, at the end of its life cycle. PMI Audio
Group takes seriously its obligations under this directive to
take back WEEE-affected products and, from 13th August
2005, will mark all such products with the crossed-out wheeled
bin symbol.
Business to Business products: PMI Audio Group will cost-
neutrally take back WEEE-affected electric and electronic
equipment in this category, from 1st January 2006. PMI Audio
Group will work with disposal and recycling partners working
within the EU. The waste electric and electronic equipment can
then be turned over to a disposal and recycling companies in
the countries concerned.
Business to Customer products: emerging electric and
electronic equipment will be disposed of by local authorities'
collection systems.
Dual Use products: this equipment will be disposed of by local
authorities' collection systems.
JOEMEEK reborn - the legend grows
The Next Generation of Joemeek studio processors represents a
quantum leap in the history of the Joemeek legend. Long regarded for
its "Big Sound", the original Joemeek gear was both revered and
reviled for its somewhat "quirky" nature. Now we have taken the best
of what made the Joemeek products sound great, refined it, distilled it,
added to it and repackaged it.
Properly and robustly engineered for predictable, controllable
performance, the new range retains the famous Joemeek sound, with
its wide, flat frequency response extending from subsonic to
ultrasonic. It also uses genuinely low noise circuitry, with lots of
headroom (immunity to overload). Accurate calibration and metering,
together with clear panel labelling, give you complete confidence in
what's going on. While some equipment pays lip-service to quality and
"professional rules" but fails to deliver, the Next Generation Joemeek
products are founded on good solid electronic and audio engineering,
and withstand direct comparison with the very best names in mixers
and outboard gear.
The Joemeek range provides everything you need to get your
performance onto tape/disc.
About the Designer
The Next Generation of Joemeek has been completely re-engineered
by renowned audio electronics consultant Allan Bradford. With his
background in physics and 30 years experience with the design of
instruments, mixers, processors and amplifiers, Allan's unique range
of expertise ensures that Joemeek remains at the forefront of music
technology.
