Using libraries and scene
memories
This chapter explains how to use libraries and scene memories.
About the libraries
Memory areas that store settings for sections such as EQ,
dynamics, and effects are called “libraries.” By recalling
(loading) data from a library, you can instantly use the
desired set of settings. Most types of library also let you
store the current settings. The AW16G provides the fol-
lowing libraries.

About scene memories
On the AW16G, settings for the mix parameters of all
channels and the effect parameters etc. can be stored in
internal memory as a “scene” with the name you specify.

When you recall one of the various libraries described
above, the library settings you recall will be loaded into
the settings that you are currently using (referred to as the
“current scene”). You can then save the current settings
as a scene memory, which will contain the settings that
you loaded from a library. Libraries and scene memories
are saved on the hard disk as part of the song.
