AM844D
English
10. Auxiliary (AUX) Sends
These 1/4” phone jacks are the
final output of line-level signal
fed from the corresponding
auxiliary send mixing buses,
and are best suited for use
with stage monitors. Feeding
the output from the Auxiliary
outs to an amplifier - and
possibly an equalizer - and
then to a floor monitor speaker allows artists to monitor their
own instruments or vocals whilst performing. There are four AUX
Sends at the AM 844D.
11 Main Outputs
These outputs will output the final stereo
line level signal sent from the main
mixing bus. The primary purpose of the
two XLR jacks is to send the main output
to external devices, which may include
power amplifiers (and in-turn, a pair of
speakers), other mixers, as well as a wide
range of other possible signal processors
(equalizers, crossovers, etcetera). The two
1/4” phone jacks are able to send the Main
output to external devices that may run in
parallel with the mixer. This may include
additional power amplifiers, mixers, PA
systems, as well as a wide range of other
possible signal processors.
12. Main Insert
Located on the rear of the AM 844D, the primary use for these
TRS phone jacks is for the addition of external devices, such
as dynamic processors or equalizers, to the main L and main R
signals. This will require a Y cord that can send (pre-fader) and
receive signals to and from an external processor.
13. CTRL RM Control Room Outputs
These two 1/4” Phone Jack outputs feed the signal altered by the
Control Room level control on the face of the mixer. This output
has extensive use, as it can be used to feed the signal from the
mixer to an active monitor, for the monitoring of the audio signal
from within a booth, among many other possible uses.
14. Foot Switch Jack
The foot switch port is for the inclusion of a foot switch, used for
remote activation and deactivation of the built-in Digital Effect
processor.
15. Group Outs
These 1/4” phone jacks output the final feed from the Group 1/5,
2/6, 3/7 and 4/8 Faders on the main panel of the mixer. These
outputs can be sent to the Left or Right Main channels using the
corresponding selector, they can also be used to feed multi-track
records, as well as an amplifier and speakers to be used along
with the Main Speakers. Since the signal of Group 1 is mimicked
to the Group 5 output, Group 2 to Group 6 – and so forth – these
outputs can easily be used to feed an 8 track recorder by simply
connecting the Group outputs to the corresponding Multi-track
input channels. Similar to if a Y-cord was built into your AM
844D!
16. AUX Returns
The 1/4” TRS AUX Return inputs are for the return of audio to
the AM 844D mixers, processed by an external signal processor.
If really needed, they can also be used as additional inputs. The
feed from these inputs can be adjusted using the AUX Return
controls on the face of the mixer. When connecting a monaural
device to the AUX Return 1, 2 and 4 inputs, simply plug a 1/4”
phone jack into the left (mono) input, and the signal will appear in
the right as well. You can use balanced and unbalanced signals.
NB.
When any device is plugged into the mixer’s corresponding EFX
Return inputs (AUX Return 3), the mixer’s internal digital effect engine is
then disabled.
17. Power Connector and Fuse Holder
Used for the addition of a power cable and
supply, allowing power to be supplied to the
mixer. Please use the power cable that is
included with this mixer only. The Fuse holder,
located above the AC Power connector, is,
of course, for the AM 884D’s fuse. If the fuse
happens to blow, open the holder cover, and
replace the fuse with a suitable replacement
(as indicated on the fuse holder’s cover).
