Multifunction tuner
In addition to standard chromatic tuning,
the multifunction tuner also has on-board
support for 7-string guitar, 5-string bass
and various drop tunings.
Comprehensive built-in mixer
Using the R16’s mixer, you can make a
mix for monitoring live and playback. When
simultaneously recording guitar and vocals,
for example, you can independently adjust
volume balance, panning and reverb levels.
Versatile effect functions
The insert eect can be applied to specic
channel paths and the send/return effect
works via the mixer send/return. The two
kinds of built-in eects can be applied when
recording, of course, but they can also be
applied to aect only the monitoring output.
For example, when recording vocals, you
can apply reverb to the monitor signal to
make singing easier, but record a dry signal.
Supports input from a variety
of sources, including guitars,
mics and line level instruments.
The 8 onboard jacks, which accept XLR
and standard phone plugs, include one
high-impedance input and two with 48V
phantom power. From high-impedance
guitars and basses to dynamic and
condenser microphones and line-level
devices like synthesizers, many sources are
supported. In addition, the built-in high-
performance condenser microphones are
convenient for recording acoustic guitar and
vocals.
