Peavey AAM 802

54. FADER:
Channel output level control. The level of the channel can be adjusted from off to +10 dB of
gain. The optimum setting is the “0” (unity gain) position.
Channel Functions 5 & 6 for AAM 802 and 13 & 14 for 1602:
In these two channels all controls are identical to the previous channels with the exception of the
insert jack. It is replaced by pad and polarity switches.
55. PAD:
When pressed it attenuates the input signal by 20 dB. This will increase
the dynamic range to accommodate a higher input level before clipping which
may be necessary when close miking loud guitar amplifiers or drum kits.
56. POLARITY:
When pressed it reverses the phase of the input signal. This will compensate for
an out of phase input that would otherwise cause frequency cancellations in the
mix. (Often needed for drum mics where both sides of the drum head are picked
up in multiple mic situations.)
Channel Functions 7 & 8 for AAM 802 and 15 & 16 for 1602:
The Mic and Line inputs of these stereo channels can be used simultaneously. The following
features are found only on the the stereo channels.
57. STEREO INPUTS:
1/4" balanced (TRS) high impedance input for high level signals. The tip
is the positive input, which should also be used for unbalanced inputs.
The Left/Mono Input supplies signal to both the left and right inputs if
there is no input connected to the right input jack. If the channel's input is
mono, the signal should be connected to the Left/Mono Input .
58. MIC GAIN:
Varies the input gain of the Mic Input to allow for a wide dynamic range.
Proper adjustment of the input gain will maximize the signal to noise
ratio. It should be set by depressing the PFL switch (53) and adjusting it
for a 0 dB level at the L-R meters. At this point there is 18 dB of
headroom remaining.
59. LINE GAIN:
Varies the input gain of the Line Input to allow for a wide dynamic range.
Proper adjustment of the input gain will maximize the signal to noise ratio.
It should be set by depressing the PFL switch (53) and adjusting it for a
0 dB level at the L-R meters. At this point there is 18 dB of headroom
remaining.
