Yamaha FIRESTATION MLAN PATCHBAY Manual de usuario

“mLAN Patchbay” is application software that allows mLAN plugs (virtual

input/output jacks) to be connected to or disconnected from the mLAN bus

(system), and synchronization settings of each mLAN device to be managed

— all under centralized control from your computer. The Macintosh version

manages the mLAN devices via IEEE 1394, and the Windows version man-

ages them via the serial interface.
