Aviom A-16R and A-16CS User Guide

MIDI In

Connect the A-16R MIDI In jack to the MIDI output of a device in your MIDI system. The MIDI In jack is used to receive data from an external device. Data received at the MIDI In jack will be echoed to the MIDI Thru jack automatically. This allows multiple A-16Rs or other MIDI devices to be connected in a serial manner.

MIDI Out

The MIDI Out jack carries MIDI information and commands generated by the A-16R. Connect the A-16R MIDI Out jack to the MIDI In jack on a compatible MIDI recording or storage device.

MIDI Thru

The Thru jack is used when daisy-chaining MIDI devices. Any MIDI information received at the MIDI In jack is passed on to the MIDI Thru jack without alteration. An unlimited number of devices can be connected in this manner without the need for a MIDI Interface or computer.

Note: Check that the MIDI cables between your A-16R and MIDI recording devices are properly connected and configured before attempting data transfers.

A-16R MIDI Base Channel

This feature allows the user to assign a MIDI channel to an A-16R, and to check the value of the MIDI base channel that is currently assigned. Sixteen MIDI channels are used; the A-16R can be set to any of the sixteen available channels. The sixteen MIDI channels correspond to the A-16R’s channel LEDs and buttons, numbered 1 through 16.

MIDI automation allows devices to be controlled from a computer running MIDI sequencing software or from other types of MIDI controllers. To support the use of MIDI automation, it is necessary for the A-16R to respond to channel-specific MIDI messages.

Display the MIDI Base Channel

The display and assignment of a MIDI Channel is accomplished by using the REMOTE/LOCAL switch on the A-16R Personal Mixer’s front panel.
