Changing settings after installation
The mLAN-related settings can be changed after installation from the mLAN Driver Setup window. To
display it, start the mLAN Driver Setup in the Control Panels folder.
mLAN Driver Setup
This window lets you check and change the mLAN settings for receiving/transmitting data. Make sure
to close any application (DAW, etc.) using the mLAN connection before making changes.
• To change the wordclock (sample rate) and the number of channels used, Start the mLAN Auto Connector in the mLAN
Tools folder.

q FireWire Card ID
The options here are the same as those for the 1394 Adapter Card ID parameter for Windows as
described on page 15.
w Latency
Determines the basic latency of the mLAN communications, or how quickly the data is processed after
a command is issued. Choose an option appropriate to your environment.
About latency in an mLAN network
The particular configuration of your computer (processing speed, system memory size, etc.) may affect
its ability to properly record and play back audio data in your audio sequencer, resulting in noise or other
audio problems. In most cases, you can solve the problem by adjusting the latency (delay time).
• A small latency value results in a short delay time and gives optimum response for real-time
recording/playback.
• A large latency value results in a long delay time, but allows for use of more audio channels and
plug-in effects.
● Types of latency in an mLAN network
Audio latency (msec)
Audio latency is determined by the basic latency (selected in the mLAN Driver Setup window) and Pre-
ferred Buffer Size (specified in the ASIO mLAN Control Panel) (see next page).
MIDI latency (msec)
The MIDI latency value varies with the mLAN driver version.
For information on the MIDI latency of your mLAN driver version, refer to the "MIDI_Latency.txt" file,
which you can access by selecting [mLAN Tools | YAMAHA | Manual] on the corresponding computer.
