Chapter 2:
Setting Up the AMM-1
Setting up the AMM-1 is very straightforward.
1. Find a suitable location. The AMM-1 is designed to be mounted
in a standard 19-inch equipment rack.
2. Confirm that the included power supply is correct for the elec-
tricity in your part of the world. If you are not sure, or the
power supply has a plug that is incompatible with your wall
sockets, contact your local Antares dealer for help.
Important! Do not attempt to modify the supply or use any
other supply that is not specifically intended for the AMM-1.
3. First, connect the power supply’s 7-pin DIN connector to the AC
INPUT jack on the rear of the AMM-1. Then plug the power
supply into an AC outlet.
4. Connect a balanced or unbalanced audio input to one of the
INPUT jacks or a digital input to the AES/EBU digital input
connector. (see Chapter 3 for details).
5. Connect a cable to one of the Analog OUTPUT jacks or the AES/
EBU digital output connector and route the output as appropri-
ate for your application.
6. If you will be controlling your AMM-1 via MIDI or downloading
new mic models via Standard MIDI Files, connect a MIDI cable
from your MIDI source to the ATR-1’s MIDI IN jack.
An Important Note About Grounding: The AMM-1 is an ex-
tremely quiet piece of gear. When properly connected and
grounded, analog noise and hum will be inaudible. However, as
you’re no doubt well aware, every studio has its own unique
quirks when it comes to connections, grounding and noise. For
the absolute best sonic performance, ensure that your analog
input and output are fully balanced.
