Using the AW1600 with external devices
Here’s how you can use the AW1600’s MIDI Remote function to remotely control a tone genera-
tor module.
1
Connect the AW1600 to your tone generator
module as shown in the following diagram.
2
Use the Work Navigate section [REMOTE]
key to access the PRESET page of the
REMOTE screen.
The Remote function will be enabled.
3
Turn the [DATA/JOG] dial to select the pre-
set that you want to use.
For example if you select preset 06 (XG 1-16), the
AW1600’s faders will control the volume of parts 1–
16 of your XG tone generator, and [TRACK SEL]
keys 1–16 will control the on/off status of parts 1–16.
4
If necessary, use the buttons in the CH area
to select the MIDI channels to which the
faders and [TRACK SEL] keys will corre-
spond.
The buttons in the CH area select the combination of
MIDI channels that are assigned to the faders and
[TRACK SEL] keys. For the combination of MIDI
channels used when each button is on, refer to “MIDI
and utility functions” (→ p. 157).
5
Operate the faders and [TRACK SEL] keys
of the AW1600.
The messages assigned to the faders and [TRACK
SEL] keys will be transmitted from the MIDI OUT/
THRU connector, and the parameters of your tone
generator module will change accordingly.
