About This Booklet
The M-16DX makes an excellent companion to a digital
audio workstation—or “DAW”—on a personal computer.
Its USB 2.0 connectivity makes it easy to get audio from
the M-16DX into the DAW. Within the DAW, you can grab
audio from any of the M-16DX’s 16 input channels or the
M-16DX’s stereo main mix bus.

working with the M-16DX. Other Workshop booklets detail using the
M-16DX with specific DAWs—you should read this booklet first, though, to
make sure you’re clear about the overall process.
