Audio interface/control surface
Connect the R16 by USB to a computer to use it as a controller and as an audio interface with DAW
software.
NOTE
• Before you unplug the USB cable when
disconnecting from a computer, follow the proper
procedures for the computer OS to disconnect
the device first.
• After step 2 of "Disconnecting" above, unplug
the USB cable only after “AUDIO INTERFACE”
disappears from the R16 display.
• Even without power from the R16 (adapter or
batteries), you can start-up with just USB bus
power when using the audio interface/control
surface functions.
• We strongly recommend that you always keep
the R16 system software up-to-date. If you use
an R16 running an old system, a computer might
not recognize it.
NOTE
• To use the R16 as an audio interface for DAW
software (for example, Cubase LE 4) it is
necessary to install the ZOOM R16 USB audio
driver. Install it correctly according the included
installation guide.
• Please download the latest version of the ZOOM
R16 USB audio driver from our home page, http://
www.zoom.co.jp.
