CD-RW drive (option)

• CD-RW drive can be installed internally
Stereo tracks on the hard disk can be used to pro-
duce an audio CD off-line. The CD-RW drive can
also be used to store recorded data for backup.
Playback of audio CD's and loading from CD-ROM
is also supported.

Other features

• Simple panel layout and efficient operation
A large backlit LCD screen provides excellent visi-
bility. The AW2816 is designed with a graphical
user interface for easy and intuitive operation.
• Option I/O card slot
A wide variety of input/output formats including
ADAT, TASCAM, AES/EBU, and analog are sup-
ported. The AW2816's open architecture ensures
excellent expandability.
• Import/export audio data
WAV files can be loaded from CD-ROM or MO
disk, and audio from tracks recorded on the
AW2816 can be converted and written as a WAV
file. This allows audio files to be exchanged with
waveform editing software running on your com-
puter. Track audio data and some song data is com-
patible with the AW4416, allowing AW4416 data to
be imported from external media.
• Rich array of MIDI functionality
MIDI messages such as control changes and param-
eter changes can be used to record AW2816 opera-
tions on an external device, and to remotely control
the AW2816 from an external device. In addition,
desired MIDI messages can be assigned to the fad-
ers and [ON] keys so that the controllers of the
AW2816 can control external MIDI devices.
