The A-16R Personal Mixer is a remotecontrollable 16-channel stereo digital
mixer. Like the industr y standard A-16II,
the A-16R can be used to give individual
performers independent control of their
monitor mixes. The A-16R is specifi cally
designed for users of wireless in-earstyle monitors or fl oor wedges, and for
applications where both an engineer
and a performer need control over the
monitor mixes.
In commercial environments, the A-16R
can be effectively used in applications
ranging from conferencing to room
combining to simple mixing in a gymnasium or auditorium.
The A-16R provides intuitive control
over volume and pan for 16 channels, as
well as master volume and tone. Each
A-16R can store up to sixteen preset
mixes, with three subgroups per Preset.
Individual channels, channel pairs, or
groups can be soloed or muted.
The A-16R can be controlled remotely
from the optional A-16CS Control Surface
or by select third-party controllers and
touch panels. Remote control allows
the A-16R to be placed in an equipment
rack with other gear, such as amps or
transmitters, while still allowing a user
to control the mix. The A-16CS is connected to the A-16R with a single Cat-5e
cable, up to 200ft (60m).
The A-16R provides balanced line-level
outputs on XLR or ¼” TRS jacks. Insert
send and return points are provided via
balanced ¼” TRS jacks. MIDI In, Out,
and Thru jacks provide the ability to
save/load settings or select A-16R
presets via MIDI. An auxiliary stereo
mix input suppor ts input of local audio
such as a click track.
Audio is provided to the A-16R on a Cat-5e
cable via Aviom’s ultra-fast Pro16
®
A-Net® protocol. Pro16 A-Net suppor ts
plug-and-play set-up, long cable runs
(up to 500ft/150m between devices),
and 24-bit uncompressed digital audio.
Mixers can be connected in series or in
parallel, using the A-16D or A-16D Pro
A-Net Distributor. Power can be supplied
locally wi th an ex te rnal DC power supply
or remotely, over the Cat-5e cable, using
an A-Net Distributor.
The A-16R Personal Mixer can be used
in virtually any combination with other
Pro16 devices. There is no limit to the
number of Personal Mixers that can be
used in a system.
