Using the AW16G with external devices

Using external effects
As an alternative to using the internal effects, you can use
an external effect processor connected to the STEREO/
AUX OUT jacks. As an example, here’s how you can use
AUX bus 1 to apply a mono-in stereo-out reverb to the
track channels during mixdown.
1Lower the [STEREO] fader to the –∞ position.
2In the Selected Channel section, repeatedly
press the [PAN/BAL] knob or hold down the
[PAN/BAL] knob and use the CURSOR [ ]/
[] keys to access the AUX OUT page of the
PAN screen.
In this page you can select one of the following as
the signal that will be output from the STEREO/AUX
OUT jacks.
STEREO......................Stereo bus (default)
AUX 1/2.....................AUX bus 1/2
3Move the cursor to the AUX 1/2 button and
press the [ENTER] key.
The AUX bus 1 signal will be output from the L
channel of the STEREO/AUX OUT jacks, and the
AUX bus 2 signal will be output from the R channel
of the STEREO/AUX OUT jacks.
4As shown in the following diagram, connect
your external effect processor to the AW16G.

If you make the above connection with the [STEREO]
fader raised before performing steps 2 and 3, oscillation

With the settings so far, the signal from the track
channel will be sent from AUX bus 1 via the STE-
REO/AUX OUT jack to the internal effect.
7Use the Quick Navigate section [RECORD]
key to access the MIXDOWN page of the
RECORD screen, and make the settings
shown below.
With these settings, the unprocessed sound of track
channels 1–16 and the effect sound returned to
input channels 3/4 will be sent to the stereo bus and
mixed. You can monitor these signals via the MON-
ITOR OUT jacks.
