About the Workshop Booklets

The EDIROL M-16DX 16-Channel Digital Mixer delivers the power of digital mixing to musicians at an incredibly affordable price. This crystal-clear 24-bit digital mixer supports sample rates up to 96 kHz, and it’s extremely flexible, with a wide range of analog and digital inputs and outputs, and effects. The M-16DX’s USB connectivity makes it an ideal partner for a computer-based digital audio workstation, and features such its pro EQ and the innovative Room Acoustic Control make it an excellent live mixer as well.

Each M-16DX Workshop Series booklet focuses on one M-16DX topic, and is intended as a companion to the M-16DX Owner’s Manual.

The M-16DX Workshop booklets require M-16DX O.S. Version 2.00 or higher. You can download the latest O.S. for free from www.RolandUS.com/EDIROL.

About This Booklet

One of the great things about the M-16DX is its wealth of inputs and outputs available on both the dedicated I/O module, and on back of the mixer. All of these connections add up to tremendous flexibility. In this booklet, we’ll discuss the M-16DX’s inputs and outputs and what they allow you to do.

Understanding the Symbols in This Booklet

Throughout this booklet, you’ll come across information that deserves special attention—that’s the reason it’s labeled with one of the following symbols.

A note is something that adds information about the topic at hand.

A tip offers suggestions for using the feature being discussed.

Warnings contain important information that can help you avoid possible damage to your equipment, your data, or yourself.

How We’ll Proceed

There are three areas in which you’ll find inputs and/or outputs on the M-16DX: the I/O module front, its back, and the back of the mixer. We’ll take each area separately, and break each one down into areas in which related inputs and/or outputs are grouped.

Most of the M-16DX’s inputs and outputs are balanced. You can also, if you wish, use them with unbalanced cables.

Front of the I/O Module

The front of the I/O module has three important sections:

POWER button—with which you turn the M-16DX system on and off.
