This will walk you through recording the two mic inputs simultaneously.


First you have to connect the input to the track you want to record on. In the WORK NAVIGATE section, press the [QUICK REC] key. On the left side are the sounds being input to the AW2816, and on the right side are tracks 1–16 (a total of sixteen tracks) on which you can record. Try pressing [ENTER] on the circle for CH1 in the left. In the screen, a connection will be made between CH1 and TR1. In the same way, connect CH2 and TR2. In the CH SETTING area, select [FLAT] to select the default settings when recording
for the first time. When you have completed these preparations, press
[ENTER] on EXECUTE, located at the far right. You will be asked whether you are sure, so select OK. If the REC TRACK SELECT 1 and 2 indicators in the upper right of the AW2816 are blinking, you are ready, if not, then press them until they do so. Although you could record immediately, let’s pair the two inputs so that we can record in stereo.
In the MIXING LAYER section, press INPUT [1-8], and then press the channel 1 [SEL] key to make it light. Now in the MIXER section, press [VIEW], and then press [F1] to access the CH View screen. Use the [CURSOR] keys to move to the MONOx2 area beside PAIR, and press [ENTER]. You will be asked how you want to pair adjacent channels, so for this example, press [ENTER] on INPUT 1-2. This lets you simultaneously control the settings for the two inputs channel 1 and 2. To try this out, move the fader of input channel
1 up and down. The fader of the adjacent channel should move with it.
