I possde the i88x since its release
I had a 01x a year and I am eyeing a logical extension dedicates.
I work with either a PC or a laptop. I have changed several times since I possde the Yamaha .... But I always used the onboard firewire chipset (the motherboard) based Texas Instruments. ESATA hard drive for audio, and internally to the system.
Empty most of the i88x are:
- The quality of construction
- Its quality audio. Including two pramplis. But all the converters is also TOP.
UTILIZATION
- The first drivers Mlane taient catastrophic in terms of wasting resources.
It was normal for 2005/2006 and it is Submitted to the same level as any good ... hh network interface at the same time you know a lot? (I'm not talking about P2P firewire)
However the installation was still binding t trs. THE FIRST thing to do is take your time, read the manual, but not enough. It is also necessary to tweak your PC to work correctly with Mlane that does not support any interrupt request without crack pathetic. Well you can imagine that if made so many years that I roll with mLAN is that I found the problem and parades all my Systm fonctgionne perfection.
As the manual is really a horror for nophytes and the minimum of all fawn.
To drive the point home, the history of mLAN devices t punctuated firmware updates that seem necessary for proper operation with the latest drivers ... So Premire thing vrifier APRS acquisition : What version of firmware is loaded into the bte?
In short if your new computer music, mLAN is death. And that's all which is why it became a great success!! As against a not justify to be buried. Today 95% of people running happily under Mlane may be experts in their Systm but in any case for Pro Tools HD is almost 100% and is in fact not a blank.
Musician little fru technology that goes up his studio PT 50,000 euros will be assisted by an expert in plant PT.
Amount if the musicians had made their Mlane Similarly, Yauri less than due. In fact mLAN t victim of its low price.
Because normally low price = ... But the non-democracies. You still go through even a specialist in installing a system that stable or sleepless nights to learn to ride. Whatever the implementation, but it's a marc ET trs laborious.
GETTING STARTED
Drivers stable? Yes yes ... But now the Yamaha dsinteressement Mlane to the community is a disgrace:
Yamaha buying Steinberg forks and trs is untoward. The new products are interfaces bass on a new chipset (DICEII) for a complte intgration DSP (the Manir a PowerCore) but it is not possible with the chipset type stuff Mlane 01x / i88x. While Yamaha has chosen not to make backward compatibility (which would have deprived the new product mixes with the elders of the whole argument intgration DSP) and has a Second line to cre firewire drivers (called Y Amaha S teinberg irewire F) in the parralle Mlane is dlaiss level updates (not Vista64 expected dsespremment)
So here the issue mLAN drivers works, but Yamaha has interest to ensure that continued with the new OS poit the nose. on the other hand I'm not excited at all a driver that if he did not eral its 3 MJ Monthly.
Good questions j'tais DAW Nuendo 3 and now I tate for Cubase 5 but hey since mLAN and Cubase 5 are not yet husbands Yamaha grace I might be passing in Sonar 8.
With my laptop can work without problem 5 / 7 ms if you want but I use mainly recording I do not care, I release it.
With the most powerful PC, less than 5 ms even loading a plugin works well.
Once we found the setup of the OS that goes ....
Ben Systm is my limit a record 16 tracks simultaneously because I have no more analog inputs. Fastoche.
But I read dj project more than 40 tracks.
At the same time what matters is the stream I / O. If you mix 40 tracks in the DAW to the Stereo is that the hard drive and CPU that will limit, not Mlane ...
I occasionally essay 32 recording tracks (by doubling the tracks) and aa march.
But my counter was resource in Graphic Patchbay mouth!
So keep in mind that a network is any Mlane fawn no more than 24 or 32 tracks if you have the ncessaires interfaces and firewire chipset that goes on the PC ... . (whole program). Otherwise you will crack before low latency .....
OVERALL OPINION
I use it since it came out (almost).
It forms a perfectly cohrent with the PC and 01x.
I n'tais not interested in a simple Systm Firewire, RME or Motu kind.
The network aspect Determines t really my choice. I really regret that Yamaha has its target wolf commercially becaufe technically mLAN is an invention of pany.
I dare not even imagine a Mlan2 with 64 channels I / O software intgration the total DSP hardware. Yamaha can do, knows how to do it, but for whom? The pro ings are not ready they let go and less than NRV PT Yamaha shall decide to tackle the market for pro audio prod vera has not ever created.
When we see that most people have tripped over the carpet with a small simple network!
Quality issue price, then it is even simpler:
01x: 1500 euros
i88x: 500 euros
Which can have a console numrique 24/96 24 channels, with two multi-effects + EQ and dynamics on each channel, a dual audio / MIDI interface with the computer for the price?
When one adds the aspect surface CONTRL was everything.
6 years APRS its output the 01x is a concept Ingal. And the coupling of the i88x enlve him all default (pramps blah, blah analog outputs, connectors bof)
Yamaha is still the policy in terms of drivers ...
