O Channel Fader
This is the main level control for each input channel. It
determines the level of the signal sent from the corre­
sponding input channel to the master stereo buss..
The settings of the input channel faders determines
the “mix” or balance of souhd levels between the in­
struments or other sources connected to the inputs.
NOTE: ----------------------------------------------------
If a channel is not being used, its fader shouid be
set to the minimum position to prevent unwanted
noise from being added to the main program sig­
nals.
• Master Control Section
@ AUX SND Controls
These adjust the overall output level of the AUX 1,
AUX 2 and AUX 3 “mixes” set up using the corre­
sponding channel AUX controls. AUX SND 1 sets the
overall level of the AUX 1 mix signal appearing at the
AUX SND 1 jack, AUX SND 2 sets the overall level of
the AUX 2 mix signal appearing at the AUX SND 2
jack, and AUX SND 3 sets the overall level of the
AUX 3 mix signal appearing at the AUX SND 3 jack.
These controls should be used to optimally match the
AUX SND output level of the mixer to the input sensi­
tivity of the external signal processing device or power
amplifier used.
O AUX RTN Controls
These controls adjust the level of the signal received
at the corresponding rear-panel AUX RTN jacks and
mixed into the main program on the master stereo
buss. Stereo inputs are provided for each AUX RTN
input, providing compatibility with the many mono-in/
stereo-out signal processors currently available.
<E) STEREO L & R Faders
The STEREO L and STEREO R faders independently
adjust the level of the signal sent from the left and
right master stereo busses to the L and R ST OUT
jacks.
<D PHONES Control
Adjusts the level of the master stereo program signal
applied to the rear-panel PHONES jack. Use the
PHONES control to set the most comfortable head­
phone monitoring level.
® REC OUT Control
This control adjusts the level of the master stereo
signal available at the rear-panel REC OUT L and R
jacks. When the REC OUT L and R jacks are con­
nected to the inputs of a tape recorder, the REC OUT
control can be used to set the optimum recording
level (in conjunction with the tape recorder’s record
level controls, if available).
® Level Meters
The AM802 features independent 5-element LED
peak level meters for the left and right channels. The
LED elements correspond to levels of -20, -10, -3, 0,
and +3 dB. If either of the +3 dB elements lights more
than just occasionally on high-level peaks, the fader
levels or levels of the sources connected to the
mixer’s inputs should be reduced to prevent possible
overload distortion.
POWER Switch (Rear panel)
Flip to the ON position to turn power ON, or to the
OFF position to turn power OFF. The POWER indica­
tor LED will light when the power switch is turned ON.
CAUTION:
Make sure the STEREO L and R faders are set to
minimum when turning the POWER switch ON.
