AM440/440D
GETTING STARTED
1. Ensure all power is turned off on your mixer. To
totally ensure this, the power supply should not
be connected to the unit.
2. All faders and level controls should be set at the
lowest level and all channels switched off to en-
sure no sound is inadvertently sent through the
outputs when the device is switched on. All lev-
els can be altered to acceptable degrees after
the device is turned on using the channel setup
instructions.
3. Plug any necessary equipment into the device’s
various outputs. This could include ampliers
and speakers, monitors, signal processors, and/
or recording devices.
4. Plug the supplied power cable into the inlet on
the back of the device and then into a power
outlet of a suitable voltage.
5. Turn the power switch on and follow the chan-
nel setup instructions to get the most out of your
equipment.
CHANNEL SETUP
1. To ensure the correct audio level of the input
channel is selected, each of the level input con-
trols of the Mixer should be turned counterclock-
wise or down as far as they will go.
2. No input other than the one being set should
have any device plugged in. This will ensure the
purest signal is used when setting channels.
3. Set the level control of the channel you are set-
ting to the 0 dB mark.
4. Ensure the channel has a signal sent to it similar
to the signal that will be sent when in common
use. For example, if the channel is using a mi-
crophone, then you should speak or sing at the
same level the performer normally would during a
performance; if a guitar is plugged into the chan-
nel, then the guitar should also be strummed as
it normally would be (and so on). This ensures
levels are completely accurate and avoids hav-
ing to reset them later.
5. Set the gain so the Level Meter indicates the au-
dio level is around 0 dB.
6. This channel is now ready to be used; you can
stop making the audio signal.
7. You can repeat the same process for other chan-
nels. Or not, it’s your call.
