• If you select DISABLE, the AW1600 will operate using its own
internal clock. If you select any other setting, the AW1600 will syn-
chronize to the clock contained in the input signal from the DIGI-
TAL STEREO IN jack. However when playing an audio CD, the
AW1600 always operates using its own clock.
HINT
•You cannot switch this setting while the recorder is running.
• If you select a setting other than DISABLE, a message of
“((((WRONG WORD CLOCK!!))))” will be displayed if appropriate
clock data is not being sent to the DIGITAL STEREO IN jack.

the recorder section will not operate. To make the AW1600 oper-
ate, you must either input the correct clock signal or switch the
DIGITAL IN PATCH setting to DISABLE.
