Chapter1Welcome to the world of the AW4416
— Operation Guide 21
Sampling pad section
Assign 16 sounds to the sampling pads
Sixteen sounds can be assigned to the eight pads with switchable A/B banks.
Sounds can be sampled into these pads at the same 16 bit/24 bit and 44.1 kHz/
48 kHz audio quality as for recording. Sampling sources can be taken from a
sound file on hard disk, an audio CD inserted in the CD-RW drive, or from a
WAV file on a SCSI device. The playback timing can be recorded on a special
sequencer track, and edited later. Pad polyphony is eight notes, and a total of
approximately 90 seconds can be sampled in the pads (16 bit/44.1 kHz).
CD-RW drive (option)
CD-RW drive
(*3)
can be installed internally
You can produce an audio CD off-line, using stereo tracks from the hard disk. This
allows entire process from recording to CD production to be completed within a
single unit. The CD-RW drive can also be used to store recorded data, making
backups easy. Playback of audio CD’s and loading from CD-ROM is also sup-
ported, allowing these to be used as sources for the sampling pads.
*3. A CD-RW drive is optional.
Other features
Simple panel layout and efficient operation
The AW4416 features a large backlit LCD and a three-color FL display, providing
a graphic user interface that can be used intuitively and efficiently. A serial mouse
(9 pin D-sub connector) can also be connected.
Two I/O card option slots
Two slots support a variety of formats including ADAT, TASCAM, AES/EBU, and
analog. The AW4416 is designed with an open architecture for superb expand-
ability.
Sophisticated connectivity
TO HOST connector and SCSI connector (SCSI-2) are standard, ensuring easy
connection to computers, external SCSI devices
(*4)
, and MIDI devices. WORD
CLOCK IN/OUT connectors are also provided to allow the construction of digital
systems for a variety of applications. In addition, MTC/MIDI clock can be used
for synchronization, and MMC commands can control the AW4416 from an
external device.
*4. External SCSI devices can be used only to back up data. They cannot be used to
record audio data directly.
