Using a DAT recorder as the word clock master
If you wish to input a digital signal from a DAT recorder or sampler etc. into the
AW4416 via the DIGITAL STEREO IN jack, turn on the D.ST IN button.

• Set the DAT recorder so that it will operate according to its own internal

clock.

Most consumer DAT recorders are designed to forcibly follow the word clock of
the input signal when recording. This type of DAT recorder can be used as the
word clock master only when it is playing back.

4. After selecting the desired button, press the [ENTER] key.

The AW4416 will switch to the specified clock source.

• A slight interval of time is required for the AW4416 to select clock sources,

and the sound may be muted during this time.

• After switching the clock source, verify that the button you selected in step 3 is

not marked with an X symbol or / symbol. If an X symbol or / symbol appears
on the button, or if an error message is displayed, check the connections or the
clock setting of the external device.
