45. Control Room / Phones Control
This control is used to adjust the audio level of the Control Room
and Phones feeds, for use in the monitoring and tracking of
audio. The signal of the control Room / Phones mixing bus is
decided by the Source Selection buttons located immediately
below this control. If no buttons are selected, the solo signal will
be used instead.
46. Control Room / Phones Source Selection
These four buttons allow users to select the various possible
sources for the Control Room and Phones outputs. By simply
pushing one of these buttons, users have the ability to monitor
the Group 1-2, Group 3-4, Main L-R and 2T return signals, either
together or individually.

47. +48V Indicator
The internal Phantom Power will be activated
when you turn on this switch.
48. Power Indicator
The Power Indicator will light up when the power
of the mixer is on; in case you weren’t too sure.
49. Level Meter
The dual 12 segment level meter gives an accurate indication
of when audio levels of the Main L/R signal reach certain levels.
The 0 dB indicator illuminates is approximately equal to an output
level of +4 dBu (balanced), and the PEAK indicator illuminates
about 1.5 dB before the signal is dynamically clipped. To make
the maximum use of audio, set the various level controls so that
it sits steadily around 0 dB to make full use of audio, while still
maintaining fantastic clarity.
50. Group 1/5, 2/6, 3/7 and 4/8 Controls
These four faders are the final level control for the Group 1 to 4
audio feeds (the signals of which are doubled in the 5 – 8 Group
outputs), sent to the corresponding Group outputs on the rear of
the AM844D to feed external devices such as effect processors,
and, most commonly, multi-track recorders. These faders can
be fed a signal from the various mono and stereo channels, as
well as the AUX Return 3, depending on your selections. When
pushed all the way
up, these faders provide 10 dB of gain to the signal, and, when
set all the way down, effectively mute the signal. The Group
Controls also feature individual left and right buttons, which allow
you to send the various Group signals to the Main Left and Right.
This can be handy when wanting to combine the signals from
different signals and control their input levels simultaneously,
then send them to the Main L/R signal (eg. when multiple inputs
are used for, say, drums, you can combine these inputs together
to be controlled much simpler by a single fader).
51. Main L/R Fader
The Left and Right main mix is controlled with this fader – the
final level control for the Main Left and Right audio feeds, sent to
the Main L and R outputs. When pushed all the way up, the Main
L/R fader provides 10 dB of gain to the signal, and when set all
the way down, the signal is effectively muted.
