Introduction

Thank you for purchasing the Yamaha MY16-mLAN.
The MY16-mLAN is an interface card that features an mLAN interface. mLAN is a digital

network designed for music and is based on the IEEE1394 high performance serial bus
and data communication protocol. mLAN makes it easy to construct sophisticated net­works for IEEE1394 (FireWire/i.LINK) audio and MIDI signals without having to re-con­figure the cabling, as was necessary in older, conventional systems.

This interface card adds two mLAN connectors to MY16-mLAN compatible devices
such as the 02R96 and 01V96 digital mixing consoles, or the DM2000 and DM1000
digital production consoles.

In order to take full advantage of the MY16-mLAN’s functionality, please read this man­ual carefully. After reading this manual, please keep it available for future reference.

Fundamentals of mLAN

English

mLAN is a digital network for music that was developed based on IEEE1394, an indus­try-standard high-performance data communications protocol.

Digital music environments that do not feature mLAN require dozens of cables for vari­ous devices and purposes, including MIDI cables and audio cables to route MIDI and
audio signals. If you wish to make changes to such systems, you must physically discon­nect and re-connect these cables.

For example, adding another synthesizer to a system requires two MIDI cables and two
or more cables for audio (for stereo equipment). Making the appropriate connections
may require special knowledge of inputs, outputs, stereo settings, and perhaps connec­tor impedance.

5

The larger the system, the more complicated and expensive these connections
become, increasing the likelihood of errors and difficulties. It takes time and effort to
investigate such errors and their underlying causes. You may have already experienced
the unpleasantness of tracking various cables through a spider’s web of connections.

mLAN simplifies cable connections by using only one type of IEEE1394 cable, thus
enabling you to configure extremely sophisticated systems. There is no need to re­patch cables to change routings of MIDI and audio signals between mLAN devices.

NOTE

Wordclocks

In a system that features multiple digitally-connected devices, all digital devices
must be synchronized when digital audio signals are transferred from one device to
another.

Even if the devices use matching sampling frequencies, if their audio processing tim­ing is not synchronized, they might not receive signals correctly, and audible noise,
glitches or clicks may occur. Synchronization is achieved using a wordclock

(a clock signal that synchronizes all digital audio signals in a system).

In a typical digital audio system, one device operates as the wordclock “master” and
transmits a wordclock signal. The other devices operate as wordclock “slaves,” syn­chronizing to the wordclock master. To connect the MY16-mLAN to external devices
via mLAN, you must first make clock settings for the device in which the MY16­mLAN is installed. Then in mLAN Auto Connector or mLAN Graphic Patchbay, select
a device to be the master, and set the other devices as slaves. If the MY16-mLAN is
used as a wordclock slave, it can operate at a sampling frequency of 44.1 kHz,
48 kHz, 88.2 kHz or 96 kHz. If the MY16-mLAN is used as the wordclock master, it
will operate at the wordclock used by the MY16-mLAN-equipped device.

The number of available input and output channels may vary depending on
the specific mLAN devices connected. For the best performance, it is recom­mended that you connect up to four mLAN devices (including a computer) in a
network. If the network contains an mLAN device that is only compatible with
a low transfer rate (200 Mbps (S200)), the number of devices and channels
available for connection will be reduced.

English

For information on setting the sampling frequency and wordclock, refer to the
Installation Guide, or to the mLAN Graphic Patchbay Online Manual, or the owner’s
manual for your device.

13

Making mLAN Connections

In an mLAN system, you can easily configure and maintain the system, connect or dis­connect the mLAN connectors on the computer and each mLAN device (virtual audio /
MIDI input and output connectors), and make various mLAN connection settings (such
as synchronization) by using the mLAN Graphic Patchbay and mLAN Auto Connector
software applications. There is no need to re-patch audio and MIDI cables to accom­modate various music production environments.

English

mLAN Auto Connectors

This software application enables you to
connect a computer to a single mLAN
device.

It enables you to easily select wordclock and
audio input and output channels.

For information on installing and using the
software, refer to the separate Installation
Guide.

NOTE

mLAN Graphic Patchbay

This graphic software application enables
you to manage mLAN connection settings
for the connected computer and multiple
mLAN devices. You can immediately grasp
connections in their entirety by viewing dis­played mLAN system configuration graph­ics. You can also intuitively modify
wordclock settings and audio and MIDI sig­nal routing, much as if you were connecting
physical cables.

For information on installing and using the
software, refer to the separate Installation
Guide and the mLAN Graphic Patchbay
Online Manual.

You can also use mLAN Graphic
Patchbay to connect a computer
to a single mLAN device.

Saving mLAN connection settings to the corresponding mLAN device

When you make mLAN connections on the computer, the connection settings will be automati­cally saved in the corresponding mLAN devices. Therefore, if you used mLAN Graphic Patch­bay to configure a network that excludes a computer, the next time you use the network, you
will be able to activate the network just by turning on the power to the network’s mLAN devices
(without starting the computer).
