Control knobs
The control knobs can now be used to edit various pa-
rameters in the following pages.
Sub Mixer1–8;
Sub Mixer9–16 (AIB-8 required);
Sub Mixer1724 (DIB-8 required);
Analog Compresser1–8;
Analog Compresser9–16 (ACB-8 required);
plus EQ/ATT, Master EQ, Effect 1/2 Send, Aux 1/2/3/4
Send, FaderPan, Cue Level, Ch View
The D16XD does not have an Aux 3/4 Send page.
The knob icons in the screen are grouped together in blocks
of four. You can use the control knobs to edit the block of
knobs that is currently emboldened in the screen.
To edit a knob that is outside the currently emboldened
group, press the corresponding knob icon; the block that in-
cludes that knob will be emboldened, and you can use the
control knobs to edit the knobs located in that block. You
can also use the cursor arrows to move from block to block.
In the EQ/ATT, Master EQ, Effect 1/2 Send, and Aux 1/2/3/4
Send pages, you can also use the EQ knobs and SEND knobs
as before.
When you turn a control knob, actual control will begin when
the knob position matches the stored value of that parameter.
However, you can cause the change in value to occur immedi-
ately by holding down the corresponding page mode key (CH
VIEW, MIXER, EFFECT) as you turn the control knob.
More simultaneous record tracks in
the 24-bit mode
The number of tracks that can be recorded simultaneously
in a 24-bit song at 48 kHz/44.1 kHz sampling frequencies
has increased to 12 tracks (from 8 tracks in previous versions).
The number of tracks that can be recorded simultaneously
in a 24-bit song at a 96 kHz sampling frequency has increased
to 6 tracks (from 4 tracks in previous versions).(

song, the

Data compatibility with other Korg
Digital Recording Studios
The D32XD and D16XD are now able to restore song data
created using the D12, D16, D1200, D1600, D1200
mk
II, and
D1600
mk
II that was backed up to CD.
Song data backed up to a PC using the D1200, D1200
mk
II, or
D1600
mk
II can also be restored.
The song data that can be restored is the audio data, song name,
song protect, LOC1–4, and MARK1–99 data. When restoring
song data that was backed up on a PC drive, the song protect
setting is cancelled.
Caution when restoring D32XD backup data into the D16XD
If a 16-bit D32XD song contains automation events recorded
in channels 17–32, backing up this song and then restoring it
into a D16XD will automatically erase all automation data
of channels 17–32. Since the amount of deletion processing
that has to be performed will depend on the amount of data,
the restore operation will take longer.
If you intend to back up D32XD song data for use on the
D16XD, you should first delete automation events for chan-
nels 17 and above before you back up the data.
Pair
Paired channels can now be controlled not only from the odd-
numbered channel but also from the even-numbered channel.
When adjacent odd-numbered/even-numbered channels (1–
2, 3–4, 5–6 ... 31–32 [*15–16]) are paired, editing a value of
either channel will set both channels to the same value.
When pairing is enabled, the following parameters are linked.
• CH ON key
• REC/PLAY key
• EQ/ATT
• REC/EFF/AUX SEND
• PAN knob
• Channel fader
• Group settings
When controlling paired faders on the D32XD using the even
numbered fader, the odd numbered fader will seem to “lag” a bit.
This lag is in the fader motor encoding, and does not affect the
actual audio data.
