Aviom A-16R and A-16CS User Guide
MIDI In
Connect the A-16R MIDI In jack to the MIDI output of a device in
your MIDI system. The MIDI In jack is used to receive data from an
external device. Data received at the MIDI In jack will be echoed to
the MIDI Thru jack automatically. This allows multiple A-16Rs or
other MIDI devices to be connected in a serial manner.
MIDI Out
The MIDI Out jack carries MIDI information and commands
generated by the A-16R. Connect the A-16R MIDI Out jack to the
MIDI In jack on a compatible MIDI recording or storage device.
MIDI Thru
The Thru jack is used when daisy-chaining MIDI devices. Any MIDI
information received at the MIDI In jack is passed on to the MIDI
Thru jack without alteration. An unlimited number of devices can be
connected in this manner without the need for a MIDI Interface or
computer.
Note: Check that the MIDI cables between your A-16R and MIDI
recording devices are properly connected and configured
before attempting data transfers.
A-16R MIDI Base Channel
This feature allows the user to assign a MIDI channel to an A-16R, and
to check the value of the MIDI base channel that is currently assigned.
Sixteen MIDI channels are used; the A-16R can be set to any of the
sixteen available channels. The sixteen MIDI channels correspond to
the A-16R’s channel LEDs and buttons, numbered 1 through 16.
MIDI automation allows devices to be controlled from a computer
running MIDI sequencing software or from other types of MIDI
controllers. To support the use of MIDI automation, it is necessary for
the A-16R to respond to channel-specific MIDI messages.
Display the MIDI Base Channel
The display and assignment of a MIDI Channel is accomplished by
using the R

switch on the A-16R Personal Mixer’s front
panel.
