Bouncing Tracks when Recording on a AW4416
If more Tracks are needed in the AW4416 for recording it is possible to bounce several Tracks to either a single Track, or to two separate Tracks for a stereo mix. For this to happen the destination Track(s) must be selected and set to record from a Bus. Also, the Track(s) being bounced together must be assigned to that same Bus.
1) Assign the bounce Track(s) to a Bus:
a) Press the [SETUP] and [F1] buttons to access the ‘SET UP/Patch In’ screen.
b) Press the , , , or ‘CURSOR’ buttons to move the cursor to the
‘RECORDER TRACK INPUT ASSIGN’ section and highlight the input assignment of
the destination Track.
c) Turn the ‘JOG/DATA’ wheel to select one of the 8 Busses of the AW4416 from
which the destination Track will record.
2) Assign the record Track(s) to a Bus, or Busses:
a) Press the [PAN] button and the [F3] buttons. The ‘PAN/ROUTE’ page will display.
b) Use the ‘CURSOR’ buttons to move the cursor to the bus
assignment section of the first Track that is to be bounced and highlight the bus that
was selected in step 1 as the source from which the destination Track will record.
c) Press the [ENTER] button.
d) Repeat steps 2.c – 2.d for any other Tracks that are to be bounced together onto
the destination Track.
3) Bounce the selected Track(s):
a) Press the appropriate [1] – [16] button in the ‘REC TRACK SELECT’ section for the
selected destination Track.
NOTE: If the Tracks are being bounced to two separate Tracks to form a stereo mix,
then repeat steps 1.a – 3.a to set up a second destination Track. When assigning
tracks to two Busses, panning the source Track all of the way to the left will send it
only to the odd numbered Bus and panning the source Track all of the way to the
right will send it to the even numbered Bus.
b) Press the [PLAY] and [RECORD] buttons to record onto the destination Track(s).

The estimated required monthly payment shown which excludes taxes and delivery equals the amount financed divided by the number of months in the promo period, rounded up to the next cent. During the last month(s) of the promo period the required monthly payment may be reduced due to this rounding. These payments apply only with the financing offer shown. If you make these payments by the due date each month, you should pay off this amount financed within the promo period, if it is the only balance you are paying off. If you have other balances on your account, this payment will be added to any other minimum monthly payments.
