Features
AW2400 Main Features
- 16-input/24-track system records top-quality uncompressed 16-bit or 24-bit audio at 44.1 or 48 kHz (12 tracks when recording 24 bit audio).
- 8 virtual tracks per physical track (26 x 8 in 16-bit mode) provide plenty of capacity for alternate takes.
- Substantial 40-gigabyte high-speed 3.5" hard disk provides plenty of internal storage as well as fast, reliable recording and playback performance.
- Built-in CD-RW drive lets you burn original audio CDs that can be played on any standard CD player, as well as make reliable CD data backups. Copyright permitting, copy CD data to the internal hard drive.
- High-performance 24-bit A/D and D/A converters guarantee outstanding audio quality.
- 4-band EQ with a choice of Type I and Type II EQ modes and versatile dynamics processing on all mixer inputs and recorder tracks.
- Full-length 100-millimeter motor faders facilitate precise mixing and mix automation.
- Eight XLR and TRS microphone/line inputs, with switchable phantom power for all XLR connectors and insert patch points on inputs 1 and 2.
- A Mini-YGDAI expansion slot on the rear panel accepts a range of high-performance I/O expansion cards.
- Sound Clip function makes it simple to record short audio samples or memos.
- Four high-performance assignable effect processors provide a range of ambience, modulation, and mastering effects.
- Pitch Fix function allows precise vocal pitch correction.
- Scene memory allows up to 99 mix setups to be memorized for each song.
- USB 2.0 interface provides fast data transfer between the AW2400 and a computer for effective data management.

System Examples
Band Recording
Since the AW2400 allows simultaneous recording of up to 16 tracks with an optional mini-YGDAI I/O card installed, it is an ideal choice for making one-take band recordings. And once the band is recorded, you can use it’s advanced mixing capabilities and effects to mix, master, and burn directly to CD!
AW + Computer Production
All you need to connect to a personal computer is a single USB cable. Once connected you can use the computer to manage and back up your audio files and projects, and even use computer-based audio editors for additional production control. You can even control the AW2400 remotely from the computer.
