INTRODUCTION

Thank you for choosing one of Phonic's many quality compact
mixers. The AM1204FX and AM1204FX USBR compact mixers –
designed by the ingenious engineers that have created a variety
of mixers fantastic in style and performance in the past – displays
similar proficiency that previous Phonic products have shown; with
more than a few refinements, of course. The AM series features
full gain ranges, amazingly low distortion levels, and incredibly
wide dynamic ranges, just showing the dominance these small
machines will have in the pro audio industry.
AM1204FX and AM1204FX USBR both feature four of Phonic's
quality low-noise preamplifiers accepting microphone signals, as
well as number of line-level ¼" phone jack inputs across four mono
and two stereo channels. The AM1204FX and AM1204FX USBR
are both adorned with studio-quality 32-bit digital effect processors
that feature 16 unique effects, each of which has its own user-
adjustable parameter. Featured solely on the AM1204FX USBR
is a stereo USB audio interface, perfect for sending audio directly
to any modern OSX or Windows based computer. Stereo audio
can also be injected straight into your mix via the USB interface.
We know how eager you are to get started – wanting to get the
mixer out and hook it all up is probably your number one priority
right now – but before you do, we strongly urge you to take a look
through this manual. Inside, you will find important facts and figures
on the set up, use and applications of your brand new mixer. If
you do happen to be one of the many people who flatly refuse to
read user manuals, then we just urge you to at least glance at
the Instant Setup section. After glancing at or reading through the
manual (we applaud you if you do read the entire manual), please
store it in a place that is easy for you to find, because chances are
there's something you missed the first time around.

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. 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 setting to the 0
dB mark.
4. Disengaged the Mute button for the channel you wish to set.
5. 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 microphone, then you should speak or
sing at the same level the performer normally would during
a performance; if a guitar is plugged into the channel, then
the guitar should also be strummed as it normally would be
(and so on). This ensures levels are completely accurate
and avoids having to reset them later.
6. Set the gain control on the channel so that the level meter
indicates the audio level is around 0 dB.
7. This channel is now ready to be used; you can stop making
the audio signal.
8. You can repeat the same process for other channels. Or not,
it's your call.
