Switching AW16G scenes from

the workstation’s sequencer

Here’s how you can transmit program changes from the
built-in sequencer of your workstation to switch scenes
on the AW16G.

■Assign scenes to program changes

1In the Control section, use the [SCENE] key
to access the PC TABLE page of the SCENE
screen.
This page lets you assign a scene number to each
program change.
1List
This lists the scenes of the current song. The line
enclosed by a dotted frame is the scene currently
selected for operations.
BProgram change number
This indicates the program change number 001–
128. Move the cursor to this number and turn the
[DATA/JOG] dial to scroll the list upward or down-
ward.
CScene
Move the cursor to this area and turn the [DATA/
JOG] dial to select the scene that you want to assign
to the corresponding program number.
DINITIALIZE button
Returns the program change assignments to the ini-
tial state.
Tip!
Tip!
With the initial settings, program changes 1–96 corre-
spond to scenes 1–96, and program changes 97–128 are
set to NO ASSIGN (no assignment).
2Move the cursor to the program change
number, and turn the [DATA/JOG] dial to
select the program change number whose
assignment you want to change.
3Move the cursor to the scene in the list, and
turn the [DATA/JOG] dial to select the scene
that you want to assign to the corresponding
program change number.
4Repeat steps 3–4 to assign the desired scenes
to other program change numbers.
Tip!
Tip!
If you want to reset the scene assignments to the initial
setting, move the cursor to the INITIALIZE button and
press the [ENTER] key.

■Transmit program changes to switch

scenes

1Connect the AW16G and your workstation
synth as shown in the diagram below.
2In the Work Navigate section, use the [UTIL-
ITY] key to access the MIDI page of the UTIL-
ITY screen.
3Set the PGM CHG MODE field to RX.
With this setting, the AW16G will receive program
changes.
4Move the cursor to RX in the MIDI CH area,
and select the MIDI channel on which MIDI
messages will be received.
5Transmit a program change message from
your workstation synth to the AW16G on the
MIDI channel that you selected.
The scene assigned to that program change number
will be recalled.
Tip!
Tip!
If you insert program changes into the appropriate loca-
tions of your sequencer track, scenes will be recalled
automatically as the AW16G and your sequencer run in
synchronization.
