Chapter1—Welcome to the world of the AW4416
— Operation Guide 27
Digital cascade connections
The input signal from the rear panel DIGITAL STEREO IN jack can be cascaded
directly into the stereo bus, instead of being sent via the input patch section and
patched to a pair of input channels. This is convenient when you wish to use an
external digital mixer without linking it to the mixer section of the AW4416. Set-
tings for cascade connection are made in the SET UP screen D.InSetup page.
* For the signal flow diagram, refer to Oscillator, below.
Oscillator
The AW4416 has a built-in oscillator section that allows you to select a sine wave
(100 Hz, 1 kHz, 10 kHz) or white noise. The signal of the oscillator can be output
from one of the following buses: buses 1–8, AUX buses 1–8, or the stereo bus.
Oscillator settings are made in the UTILITY screen Oscillator page.
Stereo output channel
This is the stereo output channel that processes the signals sent from each chan-
nel to the stereo bus. It provides the same four-band EQ and dynamics processor
as do the input channels. The output signal of the stereo output channel is sent
via the output patch section to the various output jacks, and is simultaneously
output from the MONITOR OUT jacks and the PHONES jack.
When an internal or external CD-RW drive is used to play back an audio CD, the
CD audio signal is patched to a point before the fader of the stereo output chan-
nel.
