MIDI and utility functions Basic MIDI settings In the MIDI page of the UTILITY screen, you can make various MIDI-related settings such as selecting the MIDI messages that will be output from the MIDI OUT/THRU connector, and specifying MTC/MMC transmission and reception. To access this page, repeatedly press the Work Navigation section [UTILITY] key or hold down the [UTILITY] key and use the CURSOR [ ]/[ ] keys. 12 47 3 6 5 98 This page contains the following items. 1 MIDI OUT Selects the type of MIDI messages that will be output from the MIDI OUT/THRU connector. MIDI button If this button is on, various MIDI messages generated within the AW16G (except for MIDI Clock and MTC) will be transmitted. If you turn this button on, the THRU button will be defeated. CLK button If this button is on, MIDI Clock (and Start, Stop, Continue, and Song Position Pointer) messages will be transmitted while the recorder is running. If you turn this button on, the MTC button will be defeated. MTC If this button is on, MTC (MIDI Time Code) will be transmit while the recorder is running. If you turn this button on, the CLK button will be defeated. THRU button If this button is on, MIDI messages received at the MIDI IN connector will be re-transmitted without change from the MIDI OUT/THRU connector, and none of the MIDI messages generated within the AW16G itself will be transmitted. If you turn this button on, the MIDI/ CLK/MTC buttons will be defeated. B MMC MODE Specifies how MMC will be transmitted/received. MASTER button.......... If this button is on, the AW16G will be the MMC master. When you operate the transport, the corresponding MMC command will be transmitted from the MIDI OUT/THRU connector. Use this setting when you want to remotely control an external MIDI device from the AW16G. 150 SLAVE button If this button is on, the AW16G will be the MTC slave, and will follow MMC commands that it receives at the MIDI IN connector. Use this setting when you want to remotely control the transport of the AW16G from an external MIDI device. Tip! If you want to use the AW16G as the MMC master, make sure that the MIDI button is turned on in the MIDI OUT area. C DEV (device number) Specifies the MMC device number (1-127) that the AW16G will receive. Note • The MMC device number is an identifying number used to distinguish devices that transmit and receive MMC commands. When using MMC, the AW16G and the external MIDI device must be set to the same MMC device number. • The MMC device number is displayed as a decimal number starting from one. Some devices display the MMC device number as a hexadecimal number starting from zero. In this case, the numbers will correspond as follows. AW16W display → hexadecimal display 1 → 00h 127 → 7Eh • The AW16G always transmits MMC commands using the "All" device number (7Fh in hexadecimal). D MTC MODE Specifies how the AW16G operate when synchronized with an external MIDI device using MTC (MIDI Time Code). MASTER button ..........If this button is on, the AW16G will be the MTC master. When you operate the transport of the AW16G, MTC will be transmitted from the MIDI OUT/THRU connector. Use this setting if you want to the external MIDI device to follow the AW16G, or if you are using the AW16G by itself. SLAVE button If this button is on, the AW16G will be an MTC slave, and will follow MTC data it receives at the MIDI IN connector. Use this setting if you want to synchronize with a second AW16G unit, or if you want to synchronize the AW16G with an external MIDI device that can function only as the MTC master. Tip! When using the AW16G as the MTC master, make sure that the MIDI button and MTC button in the MIDI OUT area are both turned on. E AVRG (Average) Select one of the following to specify how closely the AW16G will follow the incoming MTC data when functioning as an MTC slave.
