external devices
This chapter describes various examples of how you can use the
AW16G in conjunction with external devices.

Using the AW16G with a “workstation synth”
There are numerous ways in which you can use the
AW16G together with a workstation synthesizer (a syn-
thesizer that has a built-in sequencer).

Synchronizing the AW16G with

Here’s how you can use MTC to synchronize the AW16G
song with the sequencer built into your workstation
synth. In this example we will also use MMC to remotely
control the transport of the AW16G from your worksta-
tion synth.
