Stored scenes can be recalled at any time via the AW2400 panel controls, MIDI program change commands, or Automix events. SCENE MEMORY A fast USB 2.0 interface for advanced computer connectivity and data management. The AW2400 features a fast USB 2.0 interface that can be connected to a USB-equipped personal computer to allow standard WAV files to be transferred back and forth. You can back up audio data from the AW2400 directly to USB STORAGE computer and import audio files into the AW2400 from the computer. In addition to providing advanced file management capabilities this means you could, for example, move files to the computer for processing in a computer-based audio application and then move them back to the AW2400 for final mastering. Remotely control the AW2400 from a MIDI sequencer or synthesizer, or control DAW software from the AW2400. The AW2400 allows full parameter control via MIDI commands, so you can record scene changes as well as control changes from the AW2400 to a MIDI sequencer, for example, and then reproduce the recorded operations REMOTE precisely when the sequence is played back. If you’ll be using the AW2400 with MIDI gear such as a Yamaha MOTIF series synthesizer, the AW2400 includes a number of control “templates” that instantly set it up for convenient remote controls from the synth’s keys and encoders. The AW2400 can also remotely control computer-based DAW software such as Cubase SX3 and Nuendo 3.
