— Operation Guide
Important
Read the following before operating the
AW4416
Warnings
Do not allow water to enter this unit or allow the unit to become wet. Fire or
electrical shock may result.
Connect this unit’s power cord only to an AC outlet of the type stated in this
Owner’s Manual or as marked on the unit. Failure to do so is a fire and electri-
cal shock hazard.
Do not scratch, bend, twist, pull, or heat the power cord. A damaged power
cord is a fire and electrical shock hazard.
Do not place heavy objects, including this unit, on top of the power cord. A
damaged power cord is a fire and electrical shock hazard. In particular, be
careful not to place heavy objects on a power cord covered by a carpet.
If you notice any abnormality, such as smoke, odor, or noise, or if a foreign
object or liquid gets inside the unit, turn it off immediately. Remove the
power cord from the AC outlet. Consult your dealer for repair. Using the unit
in this condition is a fire and electrical shock hazard.
Should this unit be dropped or the cabinet be damaged, turn the power
switch off, remove the power plug from the AC outlet, and contact your
dealer. If you continue using the unit without heeding this instruction, fire or
electrical shock may result.
If the power cord is damaged (i.e., cut or a bare wire is exposed), ask your
dealer for a replacement. Using the unit with a damaged power cord is a fire
and electrical shock hazard.
Do not modify the unit. Doing so is a fire and electrical shock hazard.
Cautions
When rack-mounting the unit, allow enough free space around the unit for
normal ventilation. This should be: 10 cm at the sides, 20 cm behind, and 30
cm above.
For normal ventilation during use, remove the rear of the rack or open a ven-
tilation hole.
If the airflow is not adequate, the unit will heat up inside and may cause a
fire.
This unit has ventilation holes at the bottom to prevent the internal tempera-
ture rising too high. Do not block them. Blocked ventilation holes are a fire
hazard.
Hold the power cord plug when disconnecting it from an AC outlet. Never
pull the cord. A damaged power cord is a potential fire and electrical shock
hazard.
Important
— Operation Guide
v
Do not touch the power plug with wet hands. Doing so is a potential electri-
cal shock hazard.
Use only the included power supply cable for this unit. Using other types may
be a fire hazard.
Always touch a well-grounded metal surface or the like to fully discharge any
static electric charge on your body and clothing before handling an I/O card
or hard disk.
Neglecting this precaution can cause damage to the unit from static electric-
ity.
Be careful not to touch the leads (metal feet) on the rear side when handling
an I/O card or hard disk. Touching the leads can cause contact defects.
Operating Notes
Using a mobile telephone near this unit may induce noise. If noise occurs,
use the telephone away from the unit.
XLR-type connectors are wired as follows: pin 1: ground, pin 2: hot (+), and
pin 3: cold (–).
Insert TRS phone jacks are wired as follows: sleeve: ground, tip: send, and
ring: return.
If the message “LOW BATTERY” appears when you turn on this unit, contact
your dealer as soon as possible about replacing the internal data backup bat-
tery. The unit will still operate correctly, but data other than the presets will be
lost.
We recommend that you save the data on CD-RW drive or external SCSI
device before replacing the battery.
The performance of components with moving contacts, such switches, rotary
controls, faders, and connectors, deteriorates over time. The rate of deteriora-
tion depends on the operating environment and is unavoidable. Consult your
dealer about replacing defective components.
Handling the CD-R/RW media
Please observe the following points when handling the disk.
Failure to do so may cause problems such as the recorded data being lost, the
drive to malfunction, or the printed label to become blurred.
Do not place the disk in locations of direct sunlight, high temperature, or high
humidity.
Do not touch either surface of the disk.
Hold the disk at the edges. Gently wipe dust or dirt off of the recording sur-
face of the disk.
Do not wipe the disk with chemicals or detergents.
Do not bend or drop the disk.
Use an air duster or cleaner to remove dust. Vigorously rubbing the surface of
the disk with a dry cloth may scratch the disk.
Do not write on the disk or affix labels to it.

— Operation Guide
Storing produced data
Produced data can be lost due to breakdown or mistaken operation. We recom-
mend that you store all important data on CD-R or CD-RW disks or other external
storage medium.
Responsibility for loss of data, etc.
Yamaha will accept no responsibility for any damages (including consequen-
tial or incidental) incurred by the customer or any third party as a result of
loss or impairment of the data stored on the CD-R media, regardless of
whether such loss could have been or actually was foreseen by Yamaha.
Nor does Yamaha guarantee the media against any defect that may render it
unusable.
Cautions for handling optional equipment
For inquiries concerning I/O card, hard disk, or CD-RW drive handling,
please consult your Yamaha dealer.
Always switch off the power for the main unit and all peripherals, unplug the
power cord for the main unit from the outlet, then disconnect the cables con-
necting the main unit with the peripherals before starting installation work.
Wear thick gloves when working on this equipment to avoid cutting your
hands on metal fittings or the like on the main unit, I/O card, hard disk, or
CD-RW drive.
Always touch a well-grounded metal surface or the like to fully discharge any
static electric charge on your body and clothing before starting to work on
this equipment.
Take extreme care to avoid touching any terminals or board surface parts.
In order to protect the electronic circuits of the I/O card, hard disk, CD-RW
drive, etc. from damage due to static electricity, when handling any of this
equipment, take the most extreme care to avoid touching IC leads or other
electronic parts.
Be careful not to drop any screws into the main unit. If you switch the power
on with a dropped screw still in the main unit, the main unit may malfunction
or break down. If a dropped screw can not be retrieved, consult your Yamaha
dealer.
If the hard disk or CD-RW drive breaks down, contact the store where you
purchased that equipment.
Except for duplication for personal use or when there is no copyright problem,
the duplication or transfer of commercially sold music/sound data without the
permission of the copyright holder is prohibited. When using this equipment,
please consult with a copyright specialist.

2 — Operation Guide
Installing an internal hard disk
You must install a hard disk in the AW4416 before using it. If you attempt to use
the AW4416 without installing a hard disk, the recorder section and mixer sec-
tion will fail to operate correctly, and the AW4416 will be damaged as well.
About the internal hard disk
On the AW4416, all data necessary for reproducing a composition (mixer set-
tings, recorder settings, audio data etc.) is stored on the hard disk as a “song.
An internal hard disk is attached to the ADP25H 2.5 inch hard disk adapter and
installed in the 2.5" HARD DISK DRIVE slot located on the rear panel. Hard disks
with the following specifications can be used.
Type: IDE 2.5 inch (attachment location conforms to SFF-8201)
Thickness: no particular limitation
Capacity: no particular limitation (however, the AW4416 can use a maximum
capacity of 64 GB)
Models known to work: consult your local Yamaha distributor or refer to the
website at the following URL.
<http://www.aw4416.com/>
By “models known to work, we mean commercially available models that
Yamaha has obtained, installed in the AW4416, and successfully tested by
means of various operational tests. However, we cannot take into account
slight differences in performance that may occur due to the manufacturing tol-
erances of each manufacturer.
Hard disks are precision devices. Strong physical shock, magnetism, static
electricity, or excessive current etc. can damage the data on a hard disk. You
must use media such as an external SCSI device or CD-RW to backup your
important musical data.
Please be aware that Yamaha Corporation will accept no responsibility for any
damages, neither direct nor indirect, resulting from the use of any of the above
hard disks.

AW4416.
Hard disks are precision devices. Do not subject them to physical shock or
static electricity, etc.
Do not place a hard disk nearby devices that produce a strong magnetic field,
or in locations of extreme cold, heat, or moisture.
Before you handle a hard disk, touch your hand to a grounded metallic object
to release any static charge that may be present in your body or clothing. If you
fail to do so, static electricity may damage the hard disk.
Never attempt to disassemble a hard disk or apply excessive force to it.
The AW4416 is shipped with four screws for attaching a 2.5 inch hard disk,
and four screws for attaching a CD-RW drive, making a total of eight included
screws of the same type.
1. You will need the following items.
The AW4416 itself
A 2.5 inch IDE hard disk (sold separately) for installation
Four screws included with the AW4416 for attaching the 2.5 inch hard disk
A philips (+) screwdriver
2. Make sure that the power of the AW4416 is turned off. For safety’s sake,
disconnect the power cable from the AC outlet.
3. On the rear panel of the AW4416, remove the two screws that hold the
ADP25H 2.5 inch hard disk adapter to the 2.5" HARD DISK DRIVE slot.

4. Place the hard disk on the ADP25H as shown in the diagram below,
align the screw holes of the hard disk and the ADP25H, and use your
screwdriver to fasten the screws at the four locations shown.
5. Plug the connector of the at cable extending from the ADP25H into
the connector of the hard disk.
Even if it is difficult to plug in the connector, do not use excessive pressure to
force it in. This may damage the hard disk, or you may injure yourself.
6. Aligning the ADP25H (with the hard disk attached) with the rails inside
the 2.5" HARD DISK DRIVE slot, push it in until it clicks into place.
7. Use the screws that you removed in step 3 to fasten the ADP25H into
the 2.5" HARD DISK DRIVE slot.
If you fail to tighten the screws all the way, the hard disk may vibrate and fail to
operate correctly.
Do not turn on the power of the AW4416 until all options have been installed.
When you turn on the power of the AW4416 after installing a new hard disk,
formatting of the hard disk will begin automatically (
P.15).

Installing a CD-RW drive
About the CD-RW drives
A CD-RW drive is an option that allows you to create music CD’s, to backup/
restore internal hard disk data, to play a music CD or to read a CD-ROM. An
internal-type CD-RW drive can be installed by removing the CD-RW drive cover
from the front panel. CD-RW drives with the following specifications can be
used.
Interface: SCSI-2
Models known to work: consult your local Yamaha distributor or refer to the
website at the following URL.
<http://www.aw4416.com/>
By “models known to work, we mean commercially available models that
Yamaha has obtained, installed in the AW4416, and successfully tested by
means of various operational tests. However, we cannot take into account
slight differences in performance that may occur due to the manufacturing tol-
erances of each manufacturer.
Please be aware that Yamaha Corporation will accept no responsibility for any
damages, neither direct nor indirect, resulting from the use of any of the above
CD-RW drives.
* Note that the cover panel of the AW4416 cannot be attached to a CD-RW
drive with a lid-type tray. The AW4416’s cover panel can be attached to a CD-
RW drive with a tray of the following dimensions.
The SCSI ID of the CD-RW drive
The SCSI ID of the AW4416 itself is fixed at “6.” For this reason, you must set
the SCSI ID of the CD-RW drive to “6” before installing it.
Maximum 138 mm
Before you begin
6 — Operation Guide
In the various screens of the AW4416, the SCSI ID of the internal CD-RW
drive has been set to “3” by default. For this reason, you will find it conve-
nient to set the ID of the CD-RW to “3.” (For details on setting the SCSI ID,
refer to the manual for your CD-RW drive.)
If you are installing a CD-RW drive manufactured by Yamaha, the SCSI ID will
be set to “3” at the factory, and we recommend that you leave it at this setting.
Installation procedure
Please carefully read the cautions for installing optional equipment given at the
beginning of this manual.
1. You will need the following items.
The AW4416 itself
Internal CD-RW drive (option)
Screws (included with the AW4416) for attaching the CD-RW drive
Red and white cable for CD-RW drive (four conductor)
Philips (+) screwdriver
Work surface
In order to install the CD-RW drive you will need to turn the AW4416 on its
back. Make sure that you have a sufficiently broad work surface.
The AW4416 is shipped with four screws for attaching the 2.5 inch hard disk,
and four screws for attaching the CD-RW drive, making a total of eight screws
of the same type.
2. Make sure that the power of the AW4416 is turned off. For safetys sake,
disconnect the power cable from the AC outlet.
3. Turn the AW4416 upside down on the work surface.
When turning the AW4416 upside down, we recommend that you use the pack-
ing foam from the AW4416’s shipping carton as shown in the diagram at above,
so that the controls of the top panel are not damaged. If the packing foam is not
available, please spread out a soft cloth, and support each of the four corners of
the AW4416 with a stack of magazines etc.
