Recording your performance on the
sampling pads
The AW4416 provides a simple sequencer dedicated to the sampling pads which
operates in conjunction with the recorder. This simple sequencer records the tim-
ing of the trigger events that occur when you strike a pad, and can be used to
layer kick or snare sounds on the audio tracks, or to add sound effects. Events in a
specified area can also be copied repeatedly as a pattern, or erased.
Here’s how to record your pad performance on the simple sequencer.
1. In the SAMPLING PAD section, press the [EDIT] pad → [F5] key.
The Trig. List page will appear, allowing you to record your pad performance.
This screen shows the following information.
1 PAD
The bank and number of the pads that will be recorded/played.
B NAME (pad name)
This is the name assigned to each pad. Pads to which no sample has been
assigned will be displayed as “-NO ASN-”.
C R button
This is the recording switch for each pad. When you move the cursor and press
the [ENTER] key to change the button display from O to ●, that pad can now be
recorded.
D M button
This is the mute switch for each pad. When you move the cursor and press the
[ENTER] key to change the button display from O to ●, that pad will be muted.
It is not possible to play bank A and B pads simultaneously. The M buttons will
automatically switch to ● for the bank that is not currently selected by the
[BANK] switch, and will be muted.
