1.2.2 Input name

1.2.3 Input Gain

Press the ❑ button to change the name of the connected source. The following window will appear:

Enter a (new) source name and press the OK button to store the name.

Up to 12 characters can be used to display the source name on the LCD-display of the Wall Controller.

When the ❑ button is pressed to change the input gain, below module is opened. Within this module

the gain level of each separate (mono) input on each Twin Input Card (placed in each system rack), can

be changed. If an input card is configured as a stereo input, the fader changes the level of both input

channels at the same time. The gain can be changed between -30dB and +30dB, using the gain fader.

The VU-meter shows the actual sound level of the connected source. Make sure all input gains are set to

obtain an equal level for all connected sources. All input levels should be set (leveled) at 0dB to create

around 3dB of headroom (peak level) on all inputs. Continuous high input levels can result in distorted

output signals and these can even result in a damaged input card. When more then one system rack is

connected, it is possible to change the input gain of each Twin Input Card in a system rack separate from

all other system racks. Below picture shows input 'Source 1L' on the first system rack. To change the gain

of the 'same input' but on another system rack, simply press on e.g. 'Rack 6', to change the input gain of

'Source 1L' on system rack 6.

*Note: To use a microphone, connected to a Local Input Module, in talk over mode, one needs to make sure

the microphone level is set above the auxiliary level. With the above VU-meter function of the input

gain module, one first needs to set the level of the microphone gain about 3 to 6 dB higher, using

the microphone gain adjuster located on the Local Input Module. Make sure to set the microphone

level equal to the other sources connected to the AMS-8 system, using the above procedure.
