Selecting a channel

In order to operate the mix parameters of a channel
on the AW2816, you must first select the channel that
you want to operate. Here's how to select a channel.
1
Use the keys of the MIXING LAYER section
to select the mixing layer that you want to
operate.
In the AW2816, the controls for the monaural
channels in the top panel ([SEL] keys 1–8, [ON]
keys 1–8, faders 1–8) are shared between input
channels 1–8 and monitor channels 1–16. For
this reason, you must first select the mixing layer
(group of eight channels) that contains the chan-
nel you want to operate.
According to the key you select in the MIXING
LAYER section, the channels operated by the
fader section will change as follows.
Input channels 1–8
Monitor channels 1–8
Monitor channels 9–16
Tip!
The [SEL] keys, [ON] keys, and faders (controls) of the
stereo output channel and return channels 1/2 are not
affected by operations of the MIXING LAYER section
keys.
2
If you want to operate the faders, use the
[HOME] key and [AUX 1]–[AUX 6] keys of
the FADER MODE section to select the
fader mode.
Faders 1–8 are used to adjust the input levels of
the currently selected mixing layer or the send
levels to AUX 1–6. To select the parameters that
will be controlled by faders 1–8, use the keys of
the FADER MODE section.
