Operation section
Using the internal effects
The AW2816 contains two multi-effect units (effect 1/
2). These internal effects can be used either via AUX
send/return or by insertion into a desired channel. In
this section we will explain how to use an AUX bus to
apply reverb to the signal of each track.
1
Press the [PATCH] key
→
[F1] key.
The PATCH screen Patch IN page will appear,
allowing you to patch an input signal to each
channel.
Make sure that in the EFFECT PATCH area EFF 1
is set to “AUX 5,” and that in the MIXER CHAN-
NEL INPUT ASSIGN area RTN1 is set to “EFF1 L/
R.”
With these settings, the signal of each channel
will be routed through AUX bus 5 and sent to the
input of effect 1. Also, the output signal of effect
1 will be sent to return channel 1.
Tip!
• If these parameters are set differently, move the cur-
sor to the corresponding field and turn the [DATA/
JOG] dial to change the setting.
• With the default settings of an AW2816 song, the
output of AUX buses 5/6 is patched to the input of
internal effects 1/2, and the output of internal
effects 1/2 is patched to the input of return channels
1/2. Thus, if you are using the default settings, it will
not be necessary to change the patching.
2
Press the [PAN] key
→
[F1] key.
The PAN/ROUTE screen Pan 1-8 page will
appear.
Make sure that in the RTN1 (return channel 1)
area the ST button is turned on, and that the two
PAN knobs are spread apart to left and right.
With these settings, the return signal from effect 1
will be sent to the stereo bus, and mixed with the
signals of the monitor channels.
3
Press the [AUX 5] key
→
[F2] key.
The [AUX 5] key will light, and the AUX5/EFF 1
screen Library page will appear. In this page,
effect library programs can be loaded/saved for
internal effect 1. The display will show a list of
the saved programs.
4
Move the cursor to the library list, and turn
the [DATA/JOG] dial to display “002.
Reverb Room” at the cursor location.
In this example we will load a room reverb pro-
gram.
5
Move the cursor to the RECALL button and
press the [ENTER] key.
A popup window will appear, asking you to con-
firm that you want to load the effect program.
6
Move the cursor to the OK button and
press the [ENTER] key.
The “Reverb Room” effect program will be
loaded into internal effect 1.
