MIDI and utility functions
14
0 .............The AW16G will synchronize to the incoming
MTC data at the highest precision. However if
the incoming MTC has significant instability,
synchronization may be interrupted or become
unreliable.
1 .............This setting allows more tolerance of MTC
instability than the “0” setting.
2 .............This setting allows the maximum tolerance.
Use this setting if the MTC master is an external
MIDI device that has significant instability.
Tip!
Tip!
When the AW16G is functioning as an MTC slave and is
operating in synchronization to an external MIDI device,
and the accuracy of the incoming MTC becomes unsta-
ble, the AW16G will make slight adjustments in its play-
back pitch in an attempt to follow. The AVRG parameter
specifies the range of MTC variance that will be toler-
ated.
F OFST (Offset)
When using the AW16G as an MTC slave, this
parameter shifts the absolute time within the
AW16G forward or backward relative to the incom-
ing MTC. The range is -24:00:00:00.00 to
+24:00:00:00.00.
Tip!
Tip!
The OFST setting has no effect on the MTC that is trans-
mitted from the AW16G’s MIDI OUT/THRU connector.
G MIDI CH
Selects the MIDI channel that will be used to trans-
mit and receive MIDI messages such as program
changes and control changes. This area contains the
following two items.
TX........... Selects the transmit MIDI channel, in a range of
1–16. While MIDI messages are being
transmitted, the characters “TX” will be
highlighted.
RX........... Selects the receive MIDI channel, in a range of
1–16 or ALL. If you select ALL, MIDI messages
of all MIDI channels will be received (Omni
mode). While MIDI messages are being
received, the characters “RX” will be high-
lighted.
H PGM CHG MODE
Switches program change transmission and recep-
tion on/off.
If program change reception is on, the AW16G will
recall the corresponding scene when it receives a
program change at the MIDI IN connector. If pro-
gram change transmission is on, the AW16G will
transmit the corresponding program change from
the MIDI OUT/THRU connector when a scene is
recalled on the AW16G.
You can select the following choices.
OFF .........Program changes will not be transmitted or
received.
TX............Program changes will only be transmitted.
RX ...........Program change will only be received.
TX-RX......Program changes will be transmitted and
received.
Tip!
Tip!
In the SCENE screen PC TABLE page you can specify the
scene number that will correspond to each program
change number (
p. 165).
Note
Note
In order to actually transmit program changes, the MIDI
button of the MIDI OUT area must be turned on.
I CTRL CHG MODE
Specifies how control changes will be transmitted
and received.
If control change transmission and reception are
enabled, the corresponding control change will be
transmitted when you operate a mix parameter
(fader, pan, effect send, etc.) for track channel 1–16
on the AW16G.
When a control change is received, the correspond-
ing mix parameter will change.
You can select one of the following choices.
OFF .........Control changes will not be transmitted or
received.
1..............Control changes will be transmitted and
received on MIDI channels 1–16. (MIDI chan-
nels 1–16 will correspond to AW16G track
channels 1–16.)
2..............Control changes will be transmitted and
received only on the MIDI channel that is
selected in the MIDI CH field. (This mapping is
compatible with the AW4416/AW2816.)
3..............This is the same as 2 in that control changes of
only one MIDI channel are received and trans-
mitted, but the parameter mapping differs from
2. (A single MIDI channel will correspond to
AW16G track channels 1–16.)
Tip!
Tip!
•For details on the mix parameters that correspond to
each control change, refer to the tables that follow.
•When you operate a mix parameter of track channel 9/
10–15/16 on the AW16G, two types of control changes
will be transmitted.
Note
Note
In order to actually transmit control changes, the MIDI
button of the MIDI OUT area must be turned on.
