Chapter 20 MIDI This section will describe the basic MIDI settings as well as the various MIDI features and capabilities provided. What you can do using MIDI On the AW2400, you can use MIDI to do the following things. ● Synchronize operation with an external device You can synchronize an AW2400 song with playback of an external device (such as a MIDI sequencer) by exchanging synchronization messages such as MTC (MIDI Time Code) or MIDI Clock with the external device. ● Remote control of AW2400 transport functions You can transmit MMC (MIDI Machine Control) messages from a MIDI sequencer or other external MIDI device to the AW2400 to remotely control the AW2400's transport functions. Conversely, you can also transmit MMC from the AW2400 to an external device for remote transport control. • Example: using MTC/MMC to synchronize the operation of the AW2400 and a MIDI sequencer (computer).

If you record these messages on a MIDI sequencer that is synchronized to the AW2400, the scene recall operations or mix parameter operations can be precisely reproduced at any time. • Example: recording/playing scene selections and mix parameter operations on a MIDI sequencer (computer) MIDI OUT/ THRU connector Control changes Program changes MIDI IN AW2400 MIDI IN connector MIDI OUT MY16-mLAN Control changes Program changes or USB cable or External MIDI device (e.g., computer) IEEE1394 cable ● MIDI Remote "MIDI Remote" is a function that lets you use the AW2400 as a physical controller for an external device. You can assign the desired MIDI messages to the toppanel faders and [ON] keys, and use them to remotely control a MIDI device or computer program. • Example: using the AW2400 as a physical controller for a MIDI sound module AW2400 Control changes System exclusive messages, etc. MIDI OUT/THRU connector or MIDI IN 20 MIDI MY16-mLAN USB cable or External MIDI device (e.g., computer) IEEE1394 cable AW2400 Owner's Manual 193
