“mLAN” is a digital network designed for music applications. It uses and extends the industry

standard “IEEE1394” high performance serial bus. You can now conﬁgure more advanced systems

much more easily. Please refer to the separate “mLAN Guide Book” for more information on

mLAN.

■

Converting MIDI and audio signals into the mLAN format

You can connect MIDI or audio devices that do not support mLAN to an mLAN system. The fol-

lowing conversion is possible:

•

mLAN MIDI signal to/from MIDI signal

•

mLAN audio signal to/from analog audio signal

•

mLAN audio signal to/from digital audio signal

•

analog audio signal to/from digital audio signal

■

12-channel mixer function

The mLAN8P provides various functions as a 12-channel digital audio mixer, as well as an interface

unit.

You cannot change the mLAN8P’s settings using the controls on the unit while the mLAN Mixer

is operating.

■

Versatile internal digital effects

The mLAN8P is equipped with a high-quality internal effect processor

essential for music pro-

duction.

■

Internal sampling rate converter

The mLAN8P’s internal sampling rate converter enables data transfer between devices with differ-

ent sampling frequencies

, such as DAT and CD players.

*1.Use the included application software “mLAN Mixer” to set the internal effect proces-

sor parameters. For more information, refer to the mLAN Mixer Owner’s Manual (elec-

tronic ﬁle).

Basic concept of mLAN8P

The diagram shown above illustrates the signal ﬂow through each device connected via the

mLAN8P. You can set the input source and output destination of audio and MIDI signals of the

various devices via the mLAN8P. Speciﬁcally, signals can be input from and output to any mLAN

device via a single IEEE1394 cable. You can also make and change the connections of these

devices in any order without re-patching the cables.

There is a certain restriction regarding the operation of the mLAN8P. You

cannot set up the transmission of MIDI signals between the mLAN devices

using the mLAN8P. You need to set this from the personal computer using

the included “mLAN Patchbay” software.

* Make this serial connection when using the included software on Windows. To use the

included application software on a Macintosh, connect the mLAN8P’s mLAN jack and the

Macintosh’s FireWire port using an IEEE1394 cable. (See “Connecting an mLAN device” on

page 13.)

English

About the name of mLAN plugs:

Some mLAN plug names start with an asterisk (*). This means that they are directly connected to the

rear panel connectors of the mLAN8P. For example, “*IN (MIDI IN)” plug outputs signals input at the

MIDI IN terminal (on the rear panel of the mLAN8P) to the mLAN bus. This plug is regarded as an

mLAN output plug, but the name includes “*IN” since it outputs signals input at the MIDI IN terminal.

In the same way, “*OUT-A (*MIDI OUT-A)” plug is an mLAN input plug, but the name includes “*OUT-

A” since it inputs signals output at MIDI OUT-A on the rear panel.

after they are connected to the mLAN8P. The mLAN8P, especially with its 12-channel digital mixer

function, supports a broad range of applications, serving as the core of a music production studio.

You can set the input source and output destination for various signals and use the mixer function

not only from the mLAN8P of the mLAN8P, but also from a computer by using the included

mLAN Tools.

The mLAN8P mixer section features Direct mode and Mixer mode. When the mLAN Mixer is

not being used, the unit is in Direct mode, in which signals are input and output directly. When

the mLAN Mixer is being used, the unit enters Mixer mode. The default setting (when you turn

on the power to the unit) is Direct mode.

*1 Built-in effect processor. (Use the included application software “mLAN Mixer” to set the effect parame-

ters.) For more information on the effect processor, refer to the Data List in the mLAN Mixer Instruction

Manual (PDF ﬁle). For more information on the structure of the digital mixer section, refer to the Block

Diagram in the mLAN Mixer Owner’s Manual.

*2 Specify which digital jack is used, COAXIAL IN or OPTICAL IN. (page 33.)

*3 For mLAN audio inputs, you can select from any 8 channels on the bus (system).

Routing I/O signals between

mLAN devices

After connecting the mLAN8P to each device via cables, you can easily route and connect I/O sig-

nals between the devices without re-patching the cables. An operation common to both input

and output connections is performed.

The diagram above illustrates an example of routing the output signal from audio channel 3 on a

Yamaha A5000 (B) to audio channel 1 (Input 1) on the mLAN8P. Each device has a nickname,

“Detroit,” “Liverpool,” and “Hamamatsu” from left to right.

Follow the steps below to conﬁgure this connection on the mLAN8P. For more information on

other connections, refer to the notes in the steps.

1. Press [MIXER 1] to enter MIXER 1 mode. The mLAN8P displays the channel parameter in the

mode previously selected.

For any cases other than the example described above, select one of the fol-

lowing modes, according to the desired mLAN input source or output desti-

nation. For more information, refer to the Function Tree table on pages 18

and 19.
