Channel fader or EQ does not work
Faders do not work
When pairing is on, the faders of even-numbered
channels 1–16 will not function.
The volume level of an even-numbered channel is
controlled by the fader of the adjacent odd-numbered
channel to the left.
When you turn pairing off after it had been on, or after
Scene Read is used, the volume levels of the channels
may not match the fader positions.
→ Raise and lower the faders so that the fader positions
match the actual volume levels.
During playback, channel faders whose [TRACK
STATUS] is REC are used to adjust the input level; the
playback level is fixed at unity.
→ Set the [TRACK STATUS] to PLAY, and you will be
able to adjust the level of the playback.
EQ does not work
For an input signal, the input EQ can be used and the
channel EQ cannot be used.
→ Adjust the input EQ in the [INPUT/TUNER] "InEq1–
4" or "InEq5–8" tab page.
For a playback signal, the channel EQ can be used and
the input EQ cannot be used.
→ Adjust the channel EQ in the [EQ/PHASE] "Eq1–4,"
"Eq5–8," "Eq9–12," or "Eq13–16" tab page.
The input EQ cannot be used on the digital input or on
the rhythm. The input EQ can be used only on the
analog inputs.
Can't record
Is the [CHANNEL] fader of the D1600mkII lowered?
(When the [RECORD] "RecMode" tab page item
"Select RecMode" is set to "Input")
Is the [MASTER] fader of the D1600mkII lowered?
(When the [RECORD] "RecMode" tab page item
"Select RecMode" is set to "Bounce")
Is the [TRACK STATUS] of the recording destination
track not set to REC?
Could the drive space be insufficient?
→ Set the counter display to "FreeTime," and check the
time available for recording. (→p.91)
→ Delete unneeded songs to create more free space on
the drive. (→p.70, 110)
Is the input source that you wish to record being
correctly input to a mixer channel?
→ In the [INPUT/TUNER] "Ch1–8" or "Ch9–16" tab
page, assign the input to a mixer channel. (→p.36, 123)
Is the recording mode ("Select RecMode") appropri-
ate? (→p.99)
Is "RHSL" turned off? (→p.135)
Can't input digitally
If you wish to input a digital signal, press the "DigiIn"
button to turn it "On" in the [INPUT/TUNER] "Ch1–
8" or "Ch9–16" tab page.

Does the D1600mkII support the sampling rate of the
digital input?
→ 96 kHz sampling rate is not supported.
Too much noise or distortion in the input
sound or recorded sound
Is the [TRIM] setting appropriate? If the [TRIM] is too
high, the sound will be distorted. If it is too low, there
will be excessive noise.
→ To adjust [TRIM] to the optimal settings for the
[INPUT 1]–[INPUT 8/GUITAR IN] jacks, use the
[METER/TRACK VIEW] page "Select Display" to
choose "PreFdr," and adjust [TRIM] so that the level is
as high as possible without allowing the level meter
"CLP" to light.
If the input or output of an effect is distorted, make
the following adjustments.
→Input
• Insert effect: While watching the meter in the
[INSERT EFFECT] "InsEff1"–"InsEff5–8" tab page,
use [TRIM] etc. to adjust the input volume so that
"CLIP" does not light.
• Master effect: While watching the meter in the
[MASTER EFFECT/AUX] "EffSnd 1" or "EffSnd2"
tab page, adjust the send volumes so that "CLIP"
does not light.
• Final effect: While watching the meter in the
[MASTER EFFECT/AUX] "FinalEff" tab page,
adjust the volume of each channel so that "CLIP"
does not light.
→Output
• Insert effect: Adjust the effect parameters or
[TRIM] while listening to the result.
• Master/final effect: While watching the meter in
the [MASTER EFFECT/AUX] "EffSnd1,"
"EffSnd2," or "FinalEff" tab page, adjust the effect
parameters so that "CLP" does not light.
If distortion is occurring in the EQ, make the follow-
ing adjustments.
→ For the analog input, adjust the input EQ. For play-
back, adjust the gain of the channel EQ. (→p.48)
Effects do not apply
Have you selected effect program number 000?
→ Select an "EffectNumber" other than "000" (=NO
EFFECT).
Insert effect does not apply
Is the digital input enabled?
→ If "DigiIn" is turned "On" in the [INPUT/TUNER]
"Ch1–8" or "Ch9–16" tab page, the insert effects are
disabled. Turn the setting "Off."
Is the effect inserted at an appropriate location?
→ In the [INSERT EFFECT] "InsAsn" tab page, set
"Assign" to "In" if applying the insert effect to the
input, or to "Trk" if applying the insert effect to the
playback.
