External Video with Yamaha AW1600 AW2400?

[Cliff Kane]

Hi folks,
I think I want to get a Yamaha AW1600 but I''m curious if there is any way to view an expanded display on an external monitor or a connected computer? I don't see any sort of video out jack on the unit, but perhaps this can be done via the USB jack or some other method? The AW1600 is really enough for what I want to do, but the AW2400 seems to have a better display. I think I would be pretty happy if I could access a better display of the AW1600 on an external screen. Anyone tried this or have any ideas on this issue?

Thanks!
Cliff

Negative. As a former AW2400 owner, I can attest that the only thing the USB port is used for is importing/exporting audio to another DAW. The onboard display is all you get for viewing internal functions.

Cool--thanks for the info. I guess that's an uncommon feature.

BTW, the only all-in-one units that I'm aware of with monitor-out functions are the Roland's (VS-2000 and higher) and the TASCAM SX-1.
