Description Technical Specs Extended Information

The Yamaha AW1600 is for the musician on the move – or with limited "studio" space. With the AW1600, you get maximum audio workstation performance and functionality with minimum size, weight, and setup hassles. The AW1600 has extraordinary music production power in a remarkably compact, all-in-one unit that can take you all the way from inspiration to finished CD.

Yamaha's groundbreaking AW16G and AW4416 digital audio workstations not only brought the "studio in a box" concept directly to musicians – they also provided immediate access to inspiration and creativity. That legacy continues with the introduction of the Yamaha AW1600. It has everything needed to record your music anytime and anywhere in a compact, road-worthy design. The Yamaha AW1600 adds many features to the award winning AW16G while maintaining the same affordability. These new features include 8 combo inputs (all with Phantom power), USB 2.0 drag and drop capabilities for moving files onto your computer, 24-bit recording and a new Pitch Fix algorithm for correcting the pitch of vocal tracks.

The AW1600 mixer supports up to 8 simultaneous inputs. Eight balanced mic/line XLR type connectors as well as eight balanced or unbalanced TRS phone jacks are provided in "combo connectors" on the rear panel for direct input. The microphone preamps fed by the inputs – a critical factor in achieving superior sound – are of the highest quality, and with high-performance microphones you're guaranteed recording quality on a par with some of the most advanced studio gear available.

You can even record 8 tracks simultaneously for convenient one-take ensemble recording. For 16-bit recording and playback the AW1600 recorder section offers a total of 16 tracks, or 8 tracks for 24-bit recording and playback. You also have 8 virtual tracks per physical track – that's 18 (16 + stereo) x 8 in 16-bit mode or 10 (8 + stereo) x 8 in 24-bit mode) – that provide plenty of capacity for alternate takes or arrangements. Any of the mixer's inputs can be easily patched to any of the recorder's tracks for maximum recording flexibility.

A thoughtful interface built around a 240 x 64 dot backlit LCD display panel makes recording and mixing with the AW1600 a smooth, efficient operation. Quick navigation keys take you to the functions and displays you need immediately, and a comprehensive complement of control keys and encoders gives you the immediacy of hands-on control where you need it most. The same Selected Channel concept that is at heart of Yamaha's industry-leading digital consoles makes the AW1600 easy to learn and intuitive to use. The interface also includes large transport keys for sure transport operation, and a data entry section that includes a jog/data dial for fast, efficient data entry.

5 star rating Yamaha AW1600
Reviewer: Scott B. from Ft. Worth TX

I've been waiting months for Yamaha to announce the new digital recorders, and they're finally here. I ordered the Yamaha AW1600 today and I'm really, really excited.
