English
• If you connect/disconnect the LAN, USB or the cables to the mini jacks terminals on the Macin-
tosh you are using when using mLAN, some noise may be caused and/or data may be cut off.
Make sure that you do not insert or unplug any connections when using mLAN.
• Is the number of audio channels appropriate? The amount of audio channels that can be used
simultaneously differs depending on the computer capacity and speed.
.......Refer to “Connecting a Computer to an mLAN device via mLAN” in the
Installation Guide and “mLAN Connection Settings” in the mLAN Graphic
Patchbay Online Manual.
• Is the sampling rate (wordclock) appropriate? A high sampling rate can be the cause of the
noise depending on the computer capacity and speed.
.......Refer to “Connecting a Computer to an mLAN device via mLAN” in the
Installation Guide and “mLAN Connection Settings” in the mLAN Graphic
Patchbay Online Manual.
• Make sure that the appropriate number of devices is connected to the computer. Connection
of too many devices may cause noise, depending on the capacity of the computer.
• Are there any noise-producing devices (such as those containing power inverters, etc.) near the
cables? Move all cables away from any possible noise sources.
• Make sure the mLAN cable is not damaged. Cables that do not satisfy IEEE1394 standards may
cause noise.
• (For Windows) Do not run applications, such as anti-virus software, in the background. While
using the mLAN system, turn off all applications that run in background. If these applications
remain on, driver operation may become unstable and cause noise. If you do not plan to use
the mLAN system, you can turn these applications on. (You can turn the mLAN driver on and
off using mLAN Manager.)
■ Insufficient tracks for recording or playback
• Is the number of channels for mLAN audio receiving/sending (set on the mLAN Auto Connec-
tor and mLAN Graphic Patchbay) appropriate?
.......Refer to “Connecting a Computer to an mLAN device via mLAN” in the
Installation Guide and “mLAN Connection Settings” in the mLAN Graphic
Patchbay Online Manual.
■ Unable to transfer MIDI data or Program Changes
• Are the mLAN cables connected correctly?
• An mLAN cable may be broken.
• Is the power turned on for the transmitting and receiving devices?
• Make sure the transmission and reception channels match.
■ Incorrect pitch
• Is the unit operating on the same sampling frequency as the synchronized external device?
.......Refer to “Connecting a Computer to an mLAN device via mLAN” in the
Installation Guide and “Wordclock Settings” in the mLAN Graphic Patchbay
Online Manual.
• Is the master device operating in a stable way?
■ Cannot change the wordclock
• While using the mLAN system, make wordclock settings using mLAN Auto Connector or mLAN
Graphic Patchbay.
