Recording to a sound clip
The AW16G has a Sound Clip function that lets you record and play
back independently of the recorder section. You can use a sound clip
to quickly record and play back your performances on an audio
source connected to the AW16G or on the pads. This is an ideal way
to capture ideas for a song or arrangement, or to record a simple
accompaniment for practicing a part.
This chapter explains how an instrument or mic connected to an
input jack can be recorded as a sound clip.
Connecting your instrument or mic
First, the instrument or mic that you want to record must
be connected to a MIC/LINE INPUT jack. The various
types of jack are compatible with the following sources.
●
MIC/LINE INPUT (XLR) jacks 1/2
These are XLR-type balanced input jacks. Use a male
XLR
↔
female XLR cable to connect your mic, direct
box, or a guitar/bass preamp that has a balanced out-
put jack.
●
MIC/LINE INPUT (TRS phone) jacks 3–8
These are TRS-type balanced input jacks. Use a 1/4"
TRS phone
↔
female XLR cable to connect your mic,
direct box, or a guitar/bass preamp that has a bal-
anced output jack.
Alternatively, you can use a 1/4" phone
↔
1/4"
phone cable to connect an instrument with unbal-
anced output, such as a synthesizer or rhythm
machine.
●
MIC/LINE INPUT jack 8 (Hi-Z)
Use a 1/4" phone
↔
phone cable to directly connect
an electric guitar/bass that has passive pickups.
