Here’s how you can synchronize the AW1600 and the 
built-in sequencer of your workstation synth, and use the 
sequencer to record/play the fader and pan operations you 
perform on the AW1600.
Since operating the AW1600’s mix parameters will cause 
a large number of control change messages to be transmit-
ted, we will use MIDI Clock (which uses less data) as the 
synchronization signal rather than MTC.
1
Connect the AW1600 and your workstation 
as shown in the following diagram.
2
In the Work Navigate section, use the [UTIL-
ITY] key to access the MIDI 2 page of the 
UTILITY screen. Turn on the MASTER but-
ton in the MTC MODE area, and turn on the 
CLK button in the SYNC OUT area.
With these settings, the AW1600 will transmit MIDI 
Clock, Start/Stop/Continue, and Song Position Pointer 
messages from its MIDI OUT/THRU connector when 
it is running.

MIDI Clock and Start/Stop/Continue
3
Move the cursor to the CTRL CHG MODE 
area, and turn the [DATA/JOG] dial to select 
1 out of the possible range of 1–3.
The CTRL CHG MODE lets you choose one of three 
combinations (1–3) that specify how control changes 
will correspond to the mix parameters of the AW1600. 
(For details on the contents of each choice, refer to 
page 160.)
If you want to divide your operations into a separate 
MIDI channel for each of the AW1600’s track chan-
nels, choose 1. If you want all track channels to be 
controlled on a single MIDI channel, choose 2 or 3.
If you chose 2 or 3, you will also need to set the MIDI 
CH field to specify the MIDI channel that will be used 
to transmit and receive the control changes.
4
Make settings on your workstation synth so 
that its built-in sequencer will follow exter-
nal MIDI Clock messages. Also set the 
sequencer to record-ready mode.
For details on how to make these settings, refer to the 
manual for your workstation synth.
5
Play back the AW1600 song from the begin-
ning.
When the AW1600 begins playing, it will transmit a 
Start message and MIDI Clock messages to the 
sequencer, and the sequencer will begin running in 
synchronization with the AW1600.
6
Operate the AW1600’s mix parameters such 
as fader and pan.
The control changes assigned to each parameter will 
be recorded on the sequencer.
The type of mix parameters that can be recorded will 
depend on the setting of the CTRL CHG MODE field 
(
7
When you are finished recording, stop the 
AW1600 song.
8
Switch the workstation’s sequencer to play-
back-ready mode, and play back the 
AW1600 song from the beginning.
The recorded control changes will be transmitted to 
the AW1600, and the corresponding mix parameters 
will change.
If necessary, you can use the editing functionality of 
your sequencer to edit the values and timing of the 
control changes that were recorded.

• If your workstation synth has a function by which MIDI mes-
sages received at its MIDI IN connector are retransmitted 
from its MIDI OUT connector (a function called “MIDI Echo” or 
“MIDI Thru”), you must turn it off. If this function is turned on 
while you are recording, the control change messages trans-
mitted when you operate the AW1600 will be immediately 
returned to the AW1600, causing malfunctions.
NOTE
• If you set CTRL CHG MODE to 1, operating track channels 1–
16 will transmit control changes on the corresponding MIDI 
channel 1–16. For this reason, you should normally record 
operations only for a single channel at a time, unless your 
sequencer is able to record multiple MIDI channels simulta-
neously.
