[. . . ] While you are changing the sampling frequency, a window appears indicating that the setting is being changed. NOTE 3 Click on the [+] mark next to "Sound, video and game controllers, " and confirm that the name of the mLAN device and "Yamaha mLanBus" are listed. · When using the n8/n12, the n8/n12 [COMP] indicator flashes while you are changing the sampling frequency. For details, refer to the n8/n12 owner's manual. mLAN Driver/mLAN Tools Installation Guide 13 Driver Setup (Right-click the driver icon on the task bar Driver Setup) This dialog box enables you to set up communication with the mLAN device and to check data reception and transmission. NOTE · If an application, such as a DAW, is not using the mLAN Driver's audio or MIDI data, this field will not display an indication of correct status. Refer to this field when your application is running and using the mLAN Driver's audio or MIDI data. t Information q w e r t Click this button to display the Information window (see below), which displays the current status of audio and MIDI data reception (from the mLAN device to the computer). y Set Clicking this button actually applies the settings made in this dialog box. Changes to the settings do not take effect unless [Set] is clicked. u Revert If you've made changes to the settings (but not yet clicked [Set]), clicking this button restores the settings made the last time [Set] was clicked. Once you click [Set], [Revert] cannot be used. i q 1394 Adapter Card ID u y i EXIT Click to close the dialog box. About the Information window This window indicates the audio and MIDI data reception status (from the mLAN device to computer). Icon Blue. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . No reception. This field displays the ID of an IEEE1394 (FireWire/i. LINK) interface card installed in the computer. If multiple interfaces have been installed in the computer, select the interface that is used to connect the mLAN device. The field will not display the ID of any interfaces that are not recognized by mLAN Driver. NOTE · The correct name of the manufacturer or vendor may not be displayed depending on the particular interface you are using. · If multiple interfaces have been installed in the computer, the interface that is used to connect the mLAN device will be selected when you make the initial settings for mLAN Driver (Windows XP on page 8; Windows Vista on page 11). If you want to use another interface, first select the desired 1394 Adapter Card ID in the Driver Setup, then reconnect the IEEE 1394 (mLAN) cable. MIDI latency For information on the MIDI latency, refer to the "releasenotes_e. pdf" file. ASIO Control Panel When using the ASIO Driver, open the ASIO Control Panel associated with the driver settings of the DAW software (the specific menu depends on the software you are using) and set the Preferred Buffer Size as needed. When you open the ASIO Control Panel, the following dialog box appears. NOTE · Also, when using the WDM driver, adjust as necessary the latency value of the WDM driver (which corresponds to the latency of the ASIO driver in this chart) within the driver settings of the DAW software. · The initial setting of the Preferred Buffer Size of the ASIO driver is the smallest value. q w e r q Preferred Buffer Size t This parameter enables you to specify the size of the buffer inside the ASIO driver. w Sample Size This parameter enables you to specify the bit resolution for audio data transmission and reception. e Latency This field indicates the audio latency value. Audio latency is determined by the "Preferred Buffer Size (q)" setting. r OK Click to enable the settings and close the dialog box. t Cancel Click to close the dialog box without changing the settings. mLAN Driver/mLAN Tools Installation Guide 15 Setting up from the mLAN Auto Connector This section describes the procedure for connecting a computer to a single 01X, i88X, mLAN16E or MY16-mLAN peer-to-peer by using mLAN Auto Connector. In mLAN Auto Connector, you can easily connect an mLAN device by setting up the wordclock and the number of audio I/O channels. To connect multiple mLAN devices to a computer, use mLAN Graphic Patchbay. For more information on mLAN Graphic Patchbay, refer to the mLAN Graphic Patchbay Manual. CAUTION Noise may be generated during the following operations. Before performing these operations, lower the output level of each device. · Turning the power to the computer and mLAN devices on or off · Connecting or disconnecting an IEEE1394 (mLAN) cable · · · · · Making an mLAN connection in mLAN Auto Connector Changing the wordclock master and slave status in mLAN Auto Connector or mLAN Graphic Patchbay Making mLAN Driver active or inactive Starting or quitting the OS Installing/uninstalling mLAN Driver/mLAN Tools, n Driver or AI Driver. NOTE When connecting the 01X Setting of mLAN AUTO W. CLK (01X) 3 To ensure that settings of the mLAN Auto Connector or mLAN Graphic Patchbay are properly received, set the mLAN AUTO W. CLK (wordclock) parameter to ENABLE, as described in the following instructions. These settings can also be made after the mLAN Auto Connector or mLAN Graphic Patchbay has run. · If you use mLAN Auto Connector after you make connections in mLAN Graphic Patchbay, the connections made in mLAN Graphic Patchbay will be replaced. · You can also use mLAN Graphic Patchbay to connect a computer to a single mLAN device peer-to-peer. [. . . ] (Right-clicking the driver icon on the task bar, then select "OFF. ") Refer to "Confirming the installation" (see page 12) · Refer to "Optimizing audio performance" on page 22. · If multiple S200-compatible devices are connected to the network, connecting mLAN devices in mLAN Graphic Patchbay may require more time depending on the amount of the mLAN devices. · There may be a limit on the IEEE 1394 interface of your computer as to the number of ports that can be used simultaneously. Check how many ports can be used simultaneously. Refer to "Maximum Number of Connected Nodes " in the manual of mLAN Graphic Patchbay Incorrect pitch Setting on the mLAN device (mLAN16E/mLAN16E2/ MY16-mLAN-equipped device) and other external devices · Is the master device operating in a stable way?· Is the unit operating on the same sampling frequency as the synchronized external device? Refer to "Setting up from the mLAN Auto Connector" (see page 16) Refer to "Wordclock Settings" in the manual of mLAN Graphic Patchbay · Make sure that you set up the wordclock correctly. [. . . ]
