Frequently Asked Questions - 88M AMS Neve
How to connect the AMS Neve 88M?
Connect the XLR cables of the microphones to the microphone inputs (MIC IN), instruments to the DI inputs (INST IN). Connect the line outputs (LINE OUT) to your audio interface or console. Plug in the power supply and turn on the unit with the switch on the back.
What type of cable to use for DI inputs?
Use a standard 6.35 mm (TS) jack cable for DI inputs. Guitars and basses connect directly without an adapter.
How to activate +48V phantom power?
Each channel has a '48V' switch. Press this switch to enable phantom power. Make sure the connected microphones are compatible with +48V.
What is the high-pass filter (HPF) for?
The 80 Hz high-pass filter removes unwanted low frequencies (handling noise, rumble, resonances). Activate it per channel using the 'HPF' switch.
How to invert the phase of a signal?
Use the 'Phase' switch (φ symbol) on the corresponding channel. This inverts the signal polarity, useful for correcting phase issues between microphones.
What is the available gain range?
Gain ranges from +20 dB to +70 dB for microphone inputs and from +10 dB to +50 dB for DI inputs. Adjust the 'Gain' knob to set the level.
Is the 88M compatible with a USB audio interface?
Yes, the line outputs (LINE OUT) can be connected to the line inputs of an audio interface. The 88M is a standalone preamplifier, it does not have built-in digital conversion.
How to clean the device?
Unplug the device, then clean the housing with a soft, slightly damp cloth (clean water). Never use chemical or abrasive cleaners. Avoid the inputs/outputs.
What to do if the power does not turn on?
Check the power cable and the mains outlet. Make sure the switch on the back is in the 'ON' position. If the problem persists, contact AMS Neve after-sales service.
Where to find spare parts or repair?
For any repairs or parts orders, contact AMS Neve technical support via their official website. Do not attempt to repair the device yourself, as the warranty may be voided.
