SUPPORTED USB STORAGE DEVICES
The LP-16 player can play back directly from two different types of USB drives:
•
Small-format USB "thumb drives" that connect directly to the front-panel USB port and are
bus-powered by the USB port itself.
•
External USB hard drives, that connect to the front-panel USB port with a separate USB
cable, and are either powered from their own power supply, or are bus-powered from the
USB port.
Each of these two types of drives has their own unique considerations to keep in mind, when
using them with the LP-16, as described below.
14.1. USB 2.0 Thumb Drives
Thumb drives used for Direct-from-USB playback must be USB2.0 compatible
USB thumb drives traditionally tend to offer a less predictable and less consistent read speed
than traditional USB hard drives. Their unpredictable read speed makes them a less preferred
playback storage medium than a traditional USB hard drive, especially for 'mission critical'
multitrack playback situations.
14.2. USB 2.0 Hard Drives
USB Hard drives used for multi-track playback must be:
•
Fully compatible with the USB2.0 specification without requiring custom software drivers
•
Powered from their own external power supply
•
If "bus-powered", the drive must be bus-powerable from the standard amount of USB bus-
power offered by computer USB ports, and not require any extra amount of USB bus power
beyond this standard.
USB hard drives traditionally tend to offer a more reliable and predictable read speed than USB
thumb drives.

CONNECTING THE LP-16 TO AN AUDIO MIXER
15.1. Connecting the LP-16 to a Mixer with Unbalanced Line Inputs
The LP-16 offers 16 unbalanced analog ¼" output connectors, using a TS (tip-sleeve) configuration.
Thus, it is best connected to a mixing console with unbalanced, tip-sleeve line inputs.

Module
The illustration above shows the following connections:
•
16 tracks of pre-recorded playback are sent from the LP-16 to 16 separate line inputs of a
large format live sounding mixing console
•
MIDI keyboard connected to LP-16 MIDI in, MIDI sound module connected to MIDI out
•
Additional live musicians are fed into another 16 inputs of the console, using its mic inputs
•
The live sound engineer mixes the pre-recorded backing tracks of the LP-16 alongside
the live signals. In effect, the pre-recorded tracks from the LP-16 act as "virtual band
members", allowing for a more fleshed out production without the added expense of extra
live musicians.
15.2. Connecting the LP-16 to a Mixer with Balanced Line Inputs
In some situation, the LP- 16 will be connected to inputs of a mixing console that only offers
balanced inputs, in the form of tip-ring-sleeve (TRS) inputs. As long as the mixing console has a
properly designed balanced input, you can use a normal unbalanced TS to TS ¼" cable, with no
special cables or adapters required.
In the event that you are using a console that does not have a properly balanced input and
the connection does not work properly, use a TS to TS cable, and on the end of the cable
that connects to the mixing console's balanced TRS inputs, add a TS-to-TRS adapter. This will
convert the unbalanced signal from the LP-16 to a TRS signal that will operate correctly with the
console's balanced inputs.
