Operate faders 1–16/[ON] keys 1–16.
The MIDI messages assigned to the correspond-
ing fader/[ON] key will be transmitted from the
MIDI OUT/THRU connector.
Tip!
• Even when the REMOTE screen is displayed, the
function of the faders and [ON] keys of the stereo
output channel will not change.
• The Remote A/Remote B fader positions and [ON]
key on/off status can be saved in a scene.
• Fader and [ON] key operations can also be recorded
in automix. By using automix to record operations
separately in each page, you can perform up to 32
channels of fader/[ON] key operations.
Assigning a MIDI message to a
fader
The MIDI Remote function lets you assign a MIDI
message of up to 16 bytes to each fader/each [ON]
key.
A message can be assigned in one of two ways. You
can input the desired message manually, one byte at a
time. Or you can capture a MIDI message received
from the MIDI IN connector/TO HOST connector/
option slot, and assign it either without change or
after editing it.
Here we will explain how to transmit a modulation
wheel message (control change #1) from a synthesizer
to the AW4416, and assign it to a desired fader.

Connect the MIDI OUT/THRU connector of

changes received from the external device will be
re-transmitted back to the external device, causing
malfunctions.
• In the MIDI Setup 2 page, make sure that the MIDI
OUT/THRU switch is set to OUT.
• The TX, RX, and OMNI buttons in the CONTROL
CHANGE area of the MIDI Setup 1 page will not
