Cautions when installing an option board
In order to install the board correctly, please pay attention to the following points.
Be careful of static electricity, which may damage components inside the product
or on the board. Before beginning the installation, touch an unpainted metal part
of the chassis or the grounding terminal of a grounded device to discharge any
static electricity that may be present in your body.
Perform the installation according to the steps given in the directions, making
sure that the board is installed correctly and in the correct orientation.
Verify that the option board has been installed correctly. If installation is incorrect,
faulty connections or a shorted power supply can cause malfunctions.
All the screws that are removed will be used, so be careful not to lose any.
Using screws of the incorrect shape or length can cause malfunctions or damage
to the product. Use only the screws that were included with the option board or
the screws that were fastened in the instrument.
When installing or removing the board, be careful not to drop parts or the option
board into the instrument.
Make sure that the attaching screws are tightened firmly, and are not loose.
Handle the board with care. Subjecting it to physical shock (by dropping or
pressing it) may cause damage or malfunctions.
Be careful not to touch any exposed metal portions of the circuit board, or any
parts that are not essential to the installation process.

AIB-8
Introduction
Thank you for purchasing the Korg AIB-8 8-channel analog
input board. In order to enjoy long and trouble-free use, please
read this owner's manual carefully.
Features
By installing the AIB-8 in the D32XD/D16XD you can add
eight analog inputs.
INPUT 9...INPUT 16 jacks
Connect mic or line sources (such as keyboards) to these input
jacks. These are balanced inputs that allow you to use 1/4" TRS
phone jacks. You may also connect unbalanced phone plugs.
GND COLD HOT
GND HOT
Balanced phone plug Unbalanced phone plug
PAD keys
These drop the input level by 26 dB. The pad is on when the
switch is pressed in. You can extend the adjustable range of the
TRIM knob by switching this on when using line inputs.
Leave the pad switched off for low-output devices such as a
mic or guitar.
TRIM Knobs
These adjust the input level. The markings around the knob
indicate the input level.
Installation and settings
For details on installing and setting up the AIB-8, please refer
to the owner’s manual of the device into which you are install-
ing the AIB-8. If you have any questions, please contact your

ACB-8
Introduction
Thank you for purchasing the Korg ACB-8 8-channel analog
compressor board. In order to enjoy long and trouble-free use,
please read this owner's manual carefully.
Features
Analog compressors allow you to apply dynamics processing
to adjust the level of the analog signal before it is converted
into digital data, preventing clipping before A/D conversion.
This also provides the distinctive character of analog compres-
sion that cannot be duplicated by a digital compressor.
The ACB-8 can also be installed on the 8-channel analog input
board (AIB-8: optional). If the AIB-8 and ACB-8 are installed,
you can use analog compressors on all sixteen channels of
analog input.
Installation and settings
For details on installing and setting up the ACB-8, please refer
to the owner’s manual of the device into which you are install-
ing the ACB-8. If you have any questions, please contact your
local Korg distributor.
DIB-8
Introduction
Thank you for purchasing the Korg AIB-8 ADAT I/O board . In
order to enjoy long and trouble-free use, please read this
owner's manual carefully.
Features
This board provides eight channels of ADAT input/output and
word clock input/output.
ADAT input/output supports 48 kHz/44.1 kHz sampling
frequencies and 24/16-bit depths.
1. ADAT inputs and outputs jack
This jack inputs and outputs an
ADAT format (ADAT Type I/II
format) digital signal of the same
sampling frequency and bit depth as
the current song.
2. Word clock inputs and outputs jack
This outputs the internal clock as a word clock signal.
This inputs a word clock signal from an external device.
To make connections, you will need to obtain an BNC coax
cable manufactured by the Alesis corporation or a video BNC
cable.
3. 75Ω switch
This switches the 75Ω word clock terminator on/off. Turn the
switch On if this is the end of the connection, or Off if the
connection is branched.
Installation and settings
For details on installing and setting up the DIB-8, please refer
to the owner’s manual of the device into which you are install-
ing the DIB-8. If you have any questions, please contact your
