1. Recording on the Aw2816

Step 4. Adding ambience

Ambience-type effects such as reverb, delay, and echo

can be used to add spaciousness and warmth. Up to

this point in the process, you have been working with

the "dry" sound, unprocessed by effects, but there are

many engineers and artists who prefer to work with

ambience-type effects already applied. Many artists

also like to monitor the "wet" sound (i.e., with an

effect) while they record. There is no hard and fast

rule as to when in the mixing process ambience

should be added, but in this tutorial we will handle it

as a separate process. This is because unlike EQ or

compressor, ambience effects do not directly affect

the actual sound of the tracks. Ambience does not

modify the sound, but rather adds sound.

To create a sense of unity, we will apply only one type

of reverb to the entire song. Since the AW2816 con-

tains two internal effect units, it is easy to apply two

different reverbs or other effects to separate tracks, but

to convey the "liveness" of this song, simpler effect

settings will be more effective.

Applying excessive reverb to all tracks is the worst

possible thing you can do. Use ambience effects with

a light touch. Since reverb accumulates, applying

even a small amount to each track will result in a sig-

niﬁcant amount when the entire mix is played back.

In the beginning, you will need to repeatedly keep

adjusting the reverb send of each track, but as you

gain experience, you will learn the appropriate

amounts to use.

• Preset scene

By recalling the preset scene number 04 "STEP4 MIX"

you can hear the reverb and other settings that will be

explained below. By now you probably know how to

recall a scene, but if you are not sure, turn back to a

previous section.

Using effect 1 send, and selecting

an effect

Press the FADER MODE section [AUX5] key.

Now the faders will act as the AUX send controls

for the corresponding track. On the AW2816,

AUX5 is assigned to internal effect 1, and AUX6

is assigned to internal effect 2. Here we will use

only the AUX5 send.

Press the [F2] key to access the Effect

Library page.

The default Reverb Hall effect is a bit too big, so

we will select the Reverb PLATE effect which has

a warmth and presence that is just right for this

song.

From the effect library list, use the [DATA/

JOG] dial to select Reverb PLATE. Then

move the cursor to the RECALL button and

press the [ENTER] key.

A message will ask you for conﬁrmation, so

move the cursor to "OK" and press the [ENTER]

key.

Press the [F1] key to access the Effect Edit

page, and make sure that the "BYPASS"

setting is OFF. (If it is ON, move the cursor

to "BYPASS" and turn it OFF.)

EFFECT 2

Symphonic

Adding ambience to tracks as

needed

In AUX5 mode, use the faders to add just the neces-

sary amount of the Reverb PLATE effect to each track.

As in the other stages of the mixing process, you will

frequently be turning each channel on/off to hear how

a certain track sounds with the effect, or how it

sounds in combination with other tracks. As discussed

earlier, you should use the channel [ON] keys to turn

channels on/off, rather than using the Solo function.
