Portable Digital Recorders and Audio Workstations

Linking Two AW16Gs

It is possible to link two AW16Gs for a total of 32 tracks of recording. They are synchronized using MTC (MIDI Time Code) and the audio is cascaded from one AW16G into the second one using the digital stereo out.
  1. Connect the MIDI OUT of the AW16G 'master' to the MIDI IN of the AW16G 'slave' using a MIDI cable.
  2. Connect the DIGITAL STEREO OUT of the AW16G slave to the DIGITAL STEREO IN of the AW16G 'master' using an optical cable.
  3. Press the [UTILITY] button on the AW16G 'master' repeatedly, until the 'MIDI' Screen appears.
  4. Cursor to 'MTC' under ''MIDI OUT'' and press the [ENTER] button. This sets the AW16G 'master' to transmit MTC.
  5. Press the [UTILITY] button on the AW16G 'slave' until you are at the MIDI Screen.
  6. Cursor to 'SLAVE' under MTC MODE and press the [ENTER] button. This sets the AW16G 'slave' to sync to incoming MTC.
  7. Press the [UTILITY] button on the AW16G 'master' until you are at the D.IN-HDD screen.
  8. Cursor to the box under 'DIGITAL IN PATCH' and turn the [JOG/DATA] Wheel until it displays STEREO BUS. This routes the signal coming from the AW16G 'slave' directly to the stereo mix of the AW16G 'master'.
  9. Press the [PLAY] button on the AW16G 'slave'. The [PLAY] button should blink indicating that it is waiting for MTC.
  10. Press the [PLAY] button on the AW16G 'master'. The AW16G 'slave' should now start playing and be synchronized with the master via incoming MTC.
