Figure 3.10: Three Studio 4's in Two Networks
Connecting Four Studio 4's to a
Macintosh
You can connect a maximum of four
Studio 4's to a Macintosh. This connec-
tion uses two networks of two Studio 4's
as shown in Figure 3.11. Set each
Studio 4's front panel 1-8/9-16 switch as
indicated. You can access up to 512 inde-
pendent MIDI channels when you use
four Studio 4's.

CHAPTER 3: Hardware Installation
Networking Studio 4's and MIDI
Time Pieces
You can use MIDI Time Pieces and
Studio 4's together. In fact, the Studio 4
1
9
and MIDI Time Piece are completely
interchangeable in a 2-unit network.
When networked, OMS views the MIDI
Time Piece as another Studio 4 and uses
1
9
the Studio 4 OMS driver instead of the
MTP driver. Figure 3.12 illustrates an
1
9
example of a MIDI Time Piece in a
Studio 4 network.

Figure 3.12: MTP in a Studio 4 Network
NOTE: The MIDI Time Piece Network
port is equivalent to the Studio 4 "B" port.
Whenever you network a MIDI Time
Piece with a Studio 4, the MTP always
appears to OMS as a Studio 4. The MIDI
1
9
Time Piece OMS driver is used only when
the MIDI Time Piece is alone on a single
1
9
port or when it's networked with another
MIDI Time Piece.
NOTE: The Studio 4 uses a more efficient
communication protocol than the MIDI
1
9
Time Piece, so when networking these two
1
interfaces, it is best to have the Studio 4
9
connected to the Macintosh.
