Description of the device Features The AS-8 can be used for several purposes. Due to its intelligent design, the users can easily switch between a controllable audio mixer (with several inputs) and a signal splitter (with several controllable outputs). This makes the AS-8 a multifunctional solution for your own monitor mix, multi zone systems, conference applications and more.
While operating in Splitter mode, the main inputs may feed the mono outputs of all channels. Installation Remove all packing materials from the AS-8. Check that all foam and plastic padding is removed. Connect all cables. Do not supply power before the whole system is set up and connected properly.
