1. Recording on the Aw2816

Punch-in/punch-out

When you want to re-record just a speciﬁed area of a

previously-recorded track, the action of switching

from playback into record mode at the beginning of

that area is called "punch-in," and the action of

switching from record mode back into playback at the

end of that area is called "punch-out."

A parameter of the parametric-type equalizers (*see

entry) provided by the AW2816. Q speciﬁes the width

of the frequency band (*see entry) that will be boosted

or cut. High settings of Q will make the band nar-

rower, producing a steeper curve of change.

Quantization (number of bits)

The resolution of the data when an analog input signal

is converted into a digital signal.

Restore

The action of recalling a previously backed-up song

from CD-R/CD-RW back into the internal hard disk.

SCSI (Small Computer System Interface)

This was originally a speciﬁcation used to transfer

data between a computer and an external storage

device, but the AW2816 also uses this connector to

connect external hard disks or external CD-R/RW

drives. (*Do not connect the SCSI connector of the

AW2816 directly to a computer. Doing so may dam-

age both devices.)

S/N

The ratio of audio signal to noise. In dB (decibel)

units, this indicates the level of the residual noise that

is produced when absolutely no sound is being out-

put.

S/P DIF

Stands for Sony/Philips Digital Audio Interface. The

speciﬁcation is formally called IEC60958, but is more

generally known as S/P DIF. This is a consumer format

for transferring digital audio signals, and simulta-

neously transmits or receives two channels (one stereo

pair) of audio.

Sampling rate

Also called Sampling Frequency. The number of times

per second that an analog sound is converted into dig-

ital data. A sampling rate of 44.1 kHz means that

44,100 digital conversions are being performed each

second. If this number is higher, a broader frequency

range of sound can be captured as data.

Scene memory

A function that collectively saves the parameter set-

tings of the AW2816's mixer section. A scene that you

saved can be recalled at any time to reproduce those

settings.

Solo

A function that allows you to listen only to the sound

of a desired channel during mixdown, etc.

Time code

Time data that is used when making the AW2816

operate in synchronization with a rhythm machine,

sequencer program, or another recorder. The AW2816

is able to transmit and receive MTC (*see entry).

Track

A number assigned to an audio signal that is recorded

or played back by a recorder. The AW2816 has 16

tracks x 8 virtual tracks (*see entry), for a total of 128

tracks.

Virtual track

Although the AW2816 can play back 16 tracks simul-

taneously, each track actually has eight tracks, and

you can select one of these tracks for playback. The

eight tracks that can be selected for each track are

called "virtual tracks."

Word clock

A synchronization signal used when transferring digi-

tal audio data, which is used to ensure that the audio

data is received at the same rate it is being transmit-

ted. When two or more devices are digitally con-

nected, all devices must be using the same word

clock. If not, it may be impossible to transfer audio

signals, or noise may occur in the signal.

XLR connector

This is type of three-pin connector used for mics. It

has a locking mechanism that prevents the cable from

being pulled out accidentally.

YGDAI

Stands for Yamaha General Digital Audio Interface.

Digital mixers or digital recorders that have a YGDAI

slot allow you to install separately-sold I/O cards that

support various professional digital audio formats or

provide AD/DA functionality. There are two types of

cards; YGDAI cards (CD series) that can be used by

the Yamaha 02R and 03D, and Mini YGDAI cards (MY

series) that can be used by the Yamaha 01V, D24, and

AW4416. One optional Mini YGDAI card can be

installed in the AW2816.
