4.1 MONO MIC/LINE CHANNELS

These are channel 1 through channel 8. You can connect balanced,  
low impedance microphones or a low level signal to the XLR socket.  
On the 1/4" line jack you can connect either a microphone or a line  
level instrument such as synthesizers, drum machines, effect pro-  
cessors or any other line level signal.

Note: You shall never connect an unbalanced microphone to the  
XLR socket if you do not want to damage both the microphone and  
mixer. Also, it is not possible to simultaneously use both the MIC  
&LINE inputs on the same channel, use only one of them for the  
appropriate source.

4.2 MONO CHANNEL INSERT

Insert sockets are provided for all mono MIC channels. It can  
allow you patch external signal processing devices into signal path  
via a TRS connector, the signal will be taken out after the input  
gain control (TRIM), and sent to an external processor such as a  
compressor- limiter, then returned into the same channel imme-  
diately before the EQ section.

4.3 INPUT LEVEL SETTING  
3
This control is provided with 2 different indication rings: one is for  
the microphone and the other for the line level. When you use a  
microphone you shall read the OUTSIDE ring (0 ~ 44dB), when  
you use a line level instrument you shall read the INSIDE ring  
(+15 ~ -30dB). For optimum operation you shall set this control in  
a way that the peak LED will blink also occasionally in order to  
avoid distortion on the input channel.  
4.4 LOW CUT SWITCH  
4
By pressing this button you will activate a 75Hz low frequency  
filter with a slope of 18 dB per octave. You can use this facility to  
reduce the hum noise caused by the mains power supply, or the  
stage rumble while using a microphone.

audio devices, -10dBV is suitable for general HI-FI devices. If not  
sure to use which setting, try +4dBu first, or change it to -10dBV  
if the volume is too small to be satisfied.

AUX1 can be configured as PRE/POST fader via the PRE/POST  
switch. Up for POST fader, the signal is sent out after the channel  
fader and will be affected by the channel fader. Down for PRE  
fader, the signal is sent out before the channel fader and will not  
be affected by the channel fader. AUX2 is configured as POST  
fader, however, it can also be configured as PRE fader through  
internal modification. (For more detail, please refer to chapter 6)

Abbreviation of PANORAMA control for mono channels, for the stereo channels, always says, BALANCE control.  
You can adjust the stereo image of the signal via this control. Keep this control in center position and your signal  
will be positioned in the middle of stage. Turn this control fully counterclockwise and the signal will be present  
only on the left speaker and vice-versa.

4.10 MUTE/ALT3-4 SWITCH & LED INDICATOR  
Each channel is equipped with the MUTE/ALT3-4 switch. This switch is used to route the channel signal to  
ALT3-4 output instead of the main mix and the LED beside MUTE/ALT3-4 will illuminate when the switch is  
Depressed.

PHONES, also the LED beside it will illuminate. Usually use the SOLO function to preview each channel  
signal before they are let into the mix.  
It is useful to set an instrument's input level and EQ, and you can "solo" any channel that you want to.  
However, The SOLO switch never affects any mix other than the PHONES/CONTROL ROOM mix.  
4.12 PEAK LED  
16  
Inside your AMX-220/AMX-220FX the audio signal is monitored in several different stages and then sent to the  
PEAK LED, when this LED blinks, it warns you that you are reaching signal saturation and possible distortion.  
The PEAK LED will blink with a level that is 6dB before actual clipping.

This control will adjust the overall level of this channel and set the amount of signal sent to the main output.

Use the Tape input if you wish to listen to your mixer from a Taper Recorder or DAT. You can assign the signal  
coming from the Taper Recorder either to CONTROL ROOM/PHONES output using the 2TK IN button on the  
front panel or to the MAIN MIX output using the 2TK TO MAIN MIX button.  
TAPE OUT  
These RCA sockets will route the main mix into a tape recorder.  
4.15 STEREO AUX RETURNS  
19  
Use these stereo 1/4" sockets to return the sound of an effect unit to the main mix. You can also use them as  
the extra auxiliary inputs, but they are primarily used to connect the output of external effect processors.  
Note: in AMX-220FX, the returned signal of AUX RETURN1 will also be routed to AUX RETURN if there is no  
signal feeding to AUX RETURN 2 sockets. The signal is summed,on mixed in to the main L/R mix bus.

4.16 ALT OUTPUT  
These 1/4" sockets are unbalanced outputs, the signal level to the ALT OUTPUT is adjusted by ALT 3-4  
rotary on the front panel.

4.17 MAIN MIX OUTPUT  
The stereo output is supplied both with XLR and 1/4" TRS sockets, which are used to send the audio signal to  
an amplifier. Through the main mix level control, you can adjust the output level from - to +10dB.  
4.18 MIC +4dB

mode. Engage the button, the output signal of soloed channel will be sent out after its channel fader.  
Release the button to enter into PFL mode, the signal of soloed channel will be sent out before its channel  
Fader and not affected by the PAN/BAL and fader control.  
Note: The SOLO MODE switch will not be usable unless one or more channel SOLO switches have  
been pressed down.

5. INSTALLATION AND CONNECTION  
Ok, you have got to this point and you are now in the position to successfully operate your AMX-220/AMX-220FX.  
However, we advise you to read carefully the following section to be the real master of your own mixer. Not paying  
enough attention to the input signal level, to the routing of the signal and the assignment of the signal will result in  
unwanted distortion, a corrupted signal or no sound at all. So you should follow these procedures for every single channel:  
Before connecting mics or instruments, make sure that the power of all your systems components including the  
mixer is turned off. Also, make sure that all input and output controls of your mixer are turned down. This will avoid  
damage to your speakers and avoid excessive noise.  
Properly connect all external devices such as mics, power amplifiers, speakers, effects processor etc.  
Now, turn on the power of any peripheral devices, then power up the mixer.  
Note: the power amplifier or powered monitors shall be turned on after the mixer and turned off before the mixer.  
Set the output level of your mixer or the connected power amplifier at no more than 75%.  
Set the CONTROL ROOM/PHONE level at no more than 50%.  
Position HI, MID and LOW EQ controls on middle position.  
Position panoramic (PAN/BAL) control on center position.  
While speaking into the mic (or playing the instrument), adjust the channel Level control so that the channel PEAK  
LED will blink occasionally, in this way you will maintain good headroom and idea dynamic range.  
You can shape the tone of each channel by adjusting the equalizer controls as desired.  
Now repeat the same sequence for all other input channels. The main LED could move up into the red section,  
in this case yo can adjust the overall output level through the MAIN MIX control.  
For AMX-220FX, you can select desired DSP sound effects via PRESET and VARIATION controls.

6. FOR THE EXPERTS WHO WANT TO KNOW MORE  
As we have told you previously in this manual, the AUX SEND2 control both on mono and on stereo channels is factory  
wired as POST-FADER. If you have some skill in electronic components soldering you can modify this setting and have  
all your AUX SENDS configured as PRE-FADER.
