• On the AW2816, the number of tracks that can play
back simultaneously may be limited depending on
the number of tracks that are set to record-ready
mode. In this case, muting will forcibly be turned on
for tracks that cannot play back.
• If you want to defeat muting for a track that was
forcibly muted, you must first mute another track. If
you attempt to defeat muting without increasing the
number of muted tracks, a message of “CANNOT
CHANGE MUTE” will appear, and the operation will
not occur.
• By pressing the [ALL SAFE] key, you can defeat
record-ready mode and muting for all tracks.
