Recording/Playback/Remote Control
You’ve seen how the 01X is a full-featured stand-alone mixer and an exceptionally versatile front-end mixer for
recording and mixdown with a computer system. In this section, you’ll discover that it’s also a convenient, compre-
hensive control surface for your audio sequencer or DAW (digital audio workstation).
The 01X gives you tape recorder style transport controls, a wealth of buttons for navigating and controlling your song,
and most importantly, lets you use the faders, knobs and channel buttons ([SEL] buttons and [ON] buttons) for mixing
your sequencer tracks in real time. Full automation — with moving faders — is implemented, and you can even
change and automate EQ and effect settings for each track. In short, the 01X provides a completely transparent hard-
ware link with your computer-based music production.
Templates are included for most major DAW applications and MIDI/audio sequencers, including Cubase SX/SL,
Nuendo, Logic, SONAR, and Digital Performer. Naturally, the Yamaha SQ01 V2 is supported as well.
Throughout this section, we’ve used Cubase SX for the examples, but most or all of these control features are available
for the other supported sequencers as well. If you’re familiar with the concepts and basic functions covered here, and
are aware how they apply to your own particular sequencer, you should have no problem learning from these instruc-
tions, no matter what sequencer you use.
• Keep in mind that not all control features are implemented on all of the compatible software programs. For example, the Scrub func-
tion is not available for Cubase SX/SL, but it can be used with Logic, SONAR, and Digital Performer.
• Remote control is only possible when the version of your particular DAW application and operating system matches the system
requirements. For details, see the separate Installation Guide.
• The latest information can be found at the website below.

Setting up
Open or record a song in Cubase SX, and as you read
through this section, try out the controls with the song.
(Ideally, the song should have several tracks of audio and/
or MIDI data.)
Install the mLAN driver and connect your com-
puter to the 01X
For details on setting up your computer and DAW applica-
tion for use with the 01X, see the separate Installation
Guide.
Here, we’ll show you how to set up Cubase SX for mLAN
connection with the 01X.
• Remote control setup
Before you can use the 01X with Cubase SX, you’ll need
to specify the particular hardware control set that Cubase
recognizes.
