A-Control
A‑Control is a special protocol developed to allow the A‑16R to be controlled
by a remote device. Only the optional A‑16CS Control Surface should be
connected to the A‑Control jack. The connection uses a standard Cat‑5 jack
and cable. The A‑Control jack supplies power and data to the A‑16CS.

Connect the A-16CS to the A-Control jack.
With an A‑16CS connected to the A‑Control jack, the A‑16R will respond to
mix edits and Preset save/recall commands from as far away as 200 feet (60
meters). Note that the lo c a l /Re m o t e switch on the front panel of the A‑16R
must be in the Remote position in order for the A‑16CS to be recognized.
MIDI I/O
The A‑16R can send its Presets to another device via system exclusive
(sometimes referred to as SysEx) commands. MIDI is used to save banks
of sixteen User Presets as a single file to a remote storage device such as a
computer running MIDI sequencer software. Once stored in a remote device,
the user’s mix Presets can be reloaded into any A‑16R that is connected via
MIDI.
The MIDI Preset storage feature makes recalling setups for studios, theatres,
and touring professionals fast and easy.
