NOTE · The explanations below use Windows are an example, but the basic operation is the same for both Windows and Macintosh. ■ Parameter functions Overall General window 1 2 3 1 1 Tab 4 Calls up the corresponding window. To close the Control Panel window, click the “X” at the top right corner of the window on Windows, or click the “X” at the top left corner of the window on Macintosh. 5 6 7 NOTE · When two or three devices compatible with Yamaha Steinberg FW Driver are connected in daisy-chain fashion, the corresponding tabs are indicated for each device. When the same two or three devices are connected, the corresponding tabs are indicated with numbers assigned to each device. For details, refer to page 16. 8 9 1 Sample Rate Specifies the sample rate of the n8/n12 from 44.1 kHz, 48 kHz, 88.2 kHz and 96 kHz. 2 WORD CLOCK Master Selects the master device of the Word Clock. This parameter is available only when two or three devices compatible with Yamaha Steinberg FW Driver are connected in daisy-chain fashion. 3 Clock Source Selects the word clock source of the device selected in the WORD CLOCK Master. For the n8/n12, only “Internal” can be selected. 14 TOOLS for n Version2/Cubase AI Installation Guide  Changing settings after installation 4 ASIO Buffer Size (Windows only) About window Determines the buffer size for the ASIO driver. 5 Input Latency/Output Latency (Windows only) Indicates the delay time for the audio input/output in millisecond units. Audio latency differs depending on the value of the ASIO Buffer Size. The lower the value of the ASIO Buffer Size, the lower the value of Audio Latency. 6 Enable MMCSS (Windows Vista/7 only) Determines whether the MMCSS (Multimedia Class Scheduler Service) is active or not on Windows Vista/7. If you place a checkmark in the checkbox, MMCSS will be enabled and driver performance will be improved. Click this to call up the WDM Audio Routing window. From this window, you can determine the input/output jack used for the WDM Audio driver. In each section, the upper box selects the device (only when two or three devices compatible with Yamaha Steinberg FW Driver are connected in daisy-chain fashion) and the lower box selects the input or output jacks. NOTE · The device name of the WDM Audio driver is “Yamaha Steinberg FW WDM Audio.” This parameter specifies which jacks accept the input signals sent to a computer and to which jacks the output signals from the computer are sent. The input channels are stereo channels. The output channels are six consecutive channels from the stereo channels set in the output port setting. · When using the Surround Monitoring, set “Monitor L/R” for the output port setting. 8 Place Icon In the taskbar (Windows only) When this checkmark is entered, the driver icon is indicated on the Taskbar Notification area. 9 Reset Device Number Clicking this resets the indication order of the devices on the DAW software. For details, refer to page 16. This operation is only effective when two or more devices compatible with Yamaha Steinberg FW Driver are connected in daisy-chain fashion. n8/n12 window 1 This window indicates the version of the Yamaha Steinberg FW Driver. Word Clock In a typical digital audio system, the signal referred to as “word clock” is used to synchronize the process timing of audio signals between multiple devices. If the word clock is not transferred correctly, click noise may occur or recording may not be successful. Normally, one device transmits a reference word clock signal, and the other devices receive this word clock signal and synchronize to it. The transmitting device is called the “word clock master” and the receiving devices are called “word clock slaves”. Some devices compatible with Yamaha Steinberg FW Driver can function as the word clock slave. Select the word clock source of the word clock signal in the Clock Source parameter. Setting the audio driver buffer size Noise produced when using applications such as DAW software can affect audio recording and/or playback. In most cases, you can solve these problems by adjusting the audio buffer size (Audio Buffer Size). The buffer size can usually be adjusted via the audio driver setup window in the application. (When using ASIO compatible software for Windows, the buffer size can be adjusted in the ASIO Buffer Size parameter via the Control Panel of the Yamaha Steinberg FW Driver.) While the higher buffer size reduces load to the computer CPU but produces latency (time lag) during recording/playback, the smaller buffer size may result in noise or the sound cutting off. Make sure to set the buffer size to an appropriate value depending on the performance of your computer, the number of audio/MIDI tracks being recorded/played back on the DAW software, the number of plug-in software, and so on. 2 1 Firmware Version Indicates the firmware version of the IEEE1394. Clicking [Check for Updates] will call up the website from which you can download the latest firmware program. 2 Identify Clicking this will cause the CUBASE READY indicator on the currently controlled n8/n12 to flash. This operation lets you confirm which device is actually controlled from a computer when two or more devices are daisy-chain connected. TOOLS for n Version2/Cubase AI Installation Guide 15 English 7 Audio Routing (Windows only)  Using multiple devices compatible with Yamaha Steinberg FW Driver Using multiple devices compatible with Yamaha Steinberg FW Driver Up to three devices compatible with Yamaha Steinberg FW Driver can be used simultaneously. By connecting them in daisy-chain fashion to a computer via IEEE1394 cables, you can upgrade your music production system simply by adding other devices. IEEE1394 terminal When connecting two or three devices compatible with Yamaha Steinberg FW Driver to a computer, the order of devices displayed in the DAW (Cubase etc.) will be maintained even if the power is turned off. The order of devices will be reproduced when turning on the power of the connected devices. When the same two or three devices are connected, a unique number (indicated at the end of the device name) is automatically assigned to each of the devices, in the order with which the devices are connected. The number once assigned to a device will be maintained even if it is disconnected or the power is turned off. If you want to reset the order of devices displayed in DAW or the number assignment, follow the instructions below. English 1 2 Turn off the power of all the connected devices compatible with Yamaha Steinberg FW Driver then disconnect all the IEEE1394 cables. Call up the Control Panel of the Yamaha FW Driver window then click the [General] tab. n8/n12 1 2 MOTIF XS series 3 Click the [Reset Device Number] button at the bottom right corner of this window. NOTE MOTIF-RACK XS · The [Reset Device Number] button is available only when all the connected devices are turned off. When any device is turned on, this button is dimmed and cannot be clicked. 4 NOTE · Keep in mind that up to two devices can be connected when the Sample Rate is set to 88.2 kHz or 96 kHz. Even if you connect an additional third device, the last recognized device (other than the device specified as the Word Clock master) connected to the computer will not be available. · Even if multiple IEEE1394 interfaces are installed on the computer, make sure to daisy-chain connect all devices to the jacks of a single interface. This is necessary since the computer can only recognize devices connected to a specific, single IEEE1394 interface jack, and cannot recognize devices connected to different jacks of different IEEE1394 interfaces even though they are installed on the same computer. 16 TOOLS for n Version2/Cubase AI Installation Guide 5 6 Daisy-chain connect two or three devices compatible with Yamaha Steinberg FW Driver to the computer in the desired order. Turn on the power of the first device connected directly to the computer. Wait until the tab corresponding to the first device appears on the Control Panel of the Yamaha FW Driver window, indicating that the computer has actually recognized the first device. Turn on the power of the second device that is daisychain connected to the first device. The tab corresponding to the second device appears on the Control Panel of the Yamaha FW Driver window, indicating that the computer has recognized the second device. If a third device has been connected to this second device, turn the power on in the same manner. As necessary, set the Word Clock Master to the desired device.  Hints for using audio data (Windows) Hints for using audio data (Windows) For optimum use of the audio functions, we recommend you make the following settings.
