Important Notes
Accessing the Y56K for the first time
To access your Y56K first select [AUX7]->[F5] (for a Y56K installed in option slot 1) or [AUX8]->[F5] (for
a Y56K installed in option slot 2).
This will bring up the Y56K splash screen the first time the unit is accessed. Click anywhere on the screen
with the mouse or press the [ENTER] key to close the splash screen and display Y56K Main page.

e! Using AUX7 and AUX8 to access your Y56K does NOT disable the internal AW effects - the use of
AUX7 and AUX8 is only for the location of the control interface to the Y56K .
DSP management
The Y56K employs two DSPs: One DSP services effect chains 1-4, the other effect chains 5-8. Even if effect
chains 1-4 are fully loaded, effects can still be loaded to chains 5-8. The current amount of DSP resources
used on each DSP chip can be viewed on the “Special” page.
Operating System
This manual refers to routing between the AW4416 and the Y56K. If the Y56K is installed on different sys-
tems, refer to their operation guides to interface with the Y56K.
Power-on after installation
If the Y56K has been installed correctly, a “PLUG-IN CARD is initializing...” progress message will be dis-
played when powering the AW.
