sage transmission and reception. Press the [ENTER] key
to confirm your selection.
The connectors/ports that can be selected for MIDI trans-
mission (TX) and reception (RX) are as follows:
B
CHANNEL field
Selects the MIDI channel that will be used to transmit and
receive MIDI messages such as program changes and con-
trol changes. This area contains the following two items.
• TX .......... Selects the transmit MIDI channel, in a range
of 1–16.
• RX .......... Selects the receive MIDI channel, in a range
of 1–16.

PROGRAM CHANGE field
Turns program change transmission and reception on or
off. When program change reception is on, the corre-
sponding scene will be recalled when a program change
message is received via the AW2400 MIDI IN connector
(or USB connector or digital I/O card input port). When
program change transmission is on, when a scene is
recalled on the AW2400 the corresponding program
change message is transmitted via the MIDI OUT/THRU
connector (or USB connector or digital I/O card output
port).
The following items are available:
• ON/OFF button (TX)...... Turns program change trans-
mission on or off.

messages are re-transmitted
(“echoed”) via the MIDI OUT/
THRU connector (or USB con-
nector or digital I/O card out-
put port).
• ON/OFF button (RX) ..... Turns program change recep-
tion on or off.
• OMNI button (RX).......... Program change messages
can be received on all MIDI
channels, regardless of the
MIDI receive channel setting.
D
CONTROL CHANGE field
Specifies how MIDI control change messages will be
transmitted and received. If control change transmission
and reception are enabled, the corresponding control
change message will be transmitted when you operate any
of the AW2400’s channel mix parameters (fader, pan,
effect send, etc.). When a control change message is
received, the corresponding AW2400 mix parameter will
change.
The following items are available:
• ON/OFF button (TX)...... Turns control change trans-
mission on or off.
• ECHO button (TX) ......... Received control change
messages are re-transmitted
(“echoed”) via the MIDI OUT/

tion on or off.
