Introduction

Thank you for purchasing the Yamaha MY8-mLAN. The MY8-mLAN is an interface card that provides mLAN interfacing. mLAN is a digital network designed for music and based on the IEEE 1394 high performance serial bus. mLAN makes it easy to construct sophisticated networks for audio and MIDI signals that can be re-configured without changing the physical cabling (as was necessary with previous systems).

The MY8-mLAN adds two mLAN connectors to the Yamaha AW4416 or AW2816 professional audio workstations, or to the Yamaha 01V digital mixing console etc. (Consult your Yamaha dealer for details of other applicable Yamaha equipment.)
