Common AKAI REMIX16 Questions
How do I sync the Remix16 to an external sequencer or drum machine via MIDI?
Set the Remix16's MIDI clock mode to 'External' in the Global settings. You'll need to configure your external device to send MIDI clock signals to the Remix16 on the correct MIDI channel (also set in Global settings).
How do I save my edited patterns and recall them later?
Press the 'SAVE' button, select a memory location (0-99) using the Data knob, and press 'ENTER' to save. To recall, press 'LOAD', select the memory location, and press 'ENTER'.
How do I quickly access different sound kits while performing?
The Remix16 can load up to 16 samples across its pads. To switch between complete setups, save multiple pattern files each utilizing different sets of sounds assigned to the pads, and then load those different pattern files.
My Remix16 isn't triggering samples consistently when I hit the pads. What could be the issue?
Try cleaning the rubber contacts under the pads with isopropyl alcohol and a cotton swab. Also, check the 'Threshold' setting in the Global menu and adjust it if needed; a low threshold can make triggering unpredictable.
What is the 'Remix' function and how does it change the sound?
The 'Remix' function acts as a real-time effect processor, manipulating the currently playing sample through looping, stretching, and reversing, allowing you to create rhythmic variations and glitchy effects unique to the Remix16.
