Connecting Node Inputs And Outputs - Yamaha mLAN Owner's Manual

Connecting Node Inputs and Outputs

You can control the audio, MIDI or wordclock signal routings in an mLAN network by connecting the
node inputs and outputs.
You can connect the node inputs and outputs by either (a) patching the cables one by one, or (b)
simultaneously patching multiple cables as a group.
• Windows users should also refer to"For Windows Users: Notes Regarding
NOTE
Node MIDI Connection" on page 32.
• You cannot connect the MIDI or wordclock connectors as a group.
• For wordclock connections, using the [Single Master] option is easier
(page 25).
■ Patching the cables one by one
The following procedure applies to the Audio Connection window. However,
NOTE
you can also follow this procedure to connect the MIDI and wordclock
connectors.
1. Click the [OUT] connector of the node that outputs the signal.
mLAN Graphic Patchbay displays the Output Connector window, which shows enlarged node
connectors and virtual cable connectors.
• To connect the wordclock input and output connectors, first turn on the
NOTE
button (page 13) of the master node before clicking the [OUT] connector.
Otherwise, the Output Connector window will not open.
• If you connect the wordclock input and output connectors, the node with the
output connector is set as master, and the nodes with input connectors are set
as slaves. Slave nodes will use the sampling frequency setting of the master
node.
