Getting Started

Enclosed in the shipping carton, you should find the following:

1 AMR™ 64 Mixer

1 wall mount power supply with cord and connector

1 Operating Instructions brochure

Connecting Power to the AMR 64

Connect the wall mount power supply to a nearby AC power

outlet. It is wise to see that audio signal lines are not near the

power transformer (to prevent hum pickup). Power then can be

applied to the mixer by turning on the front panel power switch.

Connecting Signal Lines to the AMR 64

There are various system setups in which the AMR 64 mixer

may be used, all of which cannot be covered in this operating

instruction sheet. For a guideline, you will find a line drawing

below that indicates where various pieces of equipment are con¬

nected to the AMR 64 mixer.

NOTE: All equipment that is connected to the AMR 64 mixer in

the below line drawing is "line level," with exception to the micro¬

phone signals. Be careful when connecting your mixer to other

equipment that you do not connect it to any microphone inputs

on such equipment (use line level inputs and outputs only).

Rack Mounting the AMR 64

The AMR 64 may be rack-mounted, if desired, with the acces¬

sory rack mount kit. See your AMR dealer and ask for a RM™ 64

rack mount kit.

The AMR 64 is a compact mixer that features six inputs with

four channel and simultaneous stereo outputs. The features and

functions have been optimized for speed and flexibility in making

high-quality multi-track recordings. The AMR 64 incorporates

many features found on large mixing consoles such as input

channel patching, separate monitor mixer, sweepable equaliza¬

tion, etc. As you become familiar with the operation of the AMR

64, you will grow to appreciate the attention to detail that makes

this an exceptional mixer.

Each input channel features low impedance XLR microphone

inputs, line level channel "insert" patching (mic preamp output

and line input), mic/mute/tape switch, input gain control, three-

band equalization (fixed high and low frequencies and a sweepa¬

ble midrange), auxiliary send, linear level control, pan pot and

output assignment switch, in addition to a peak reading LED to

indicate an overload condition on that specific input.

The AMR 64 features a separate (4 x 2) monitor mixer that will

allow you to have all input channels free during the overdubbing

process. Typically, pre-recorded tape tracks are brought back

through the normal input channels for monitoring purposes dur¬

ing overdubbing. In addition, the monitor mixer can be used as

four additional line inputs during the mixdown process (provid¬

ing a total of ten line inputs).

There are many more features that are incorporated on the

AMR 64. As you read the detailed explanation of each feature,

you will soon grow to appreciate its well thought out features and

design.
