    How long have you been using?
    I used them 5 years on a DM1000 & Mac Pro. Sold recently.

    What is so special that you like most and least?
    The +: FW a single cable to carry 32 channels of audio, the wordclock & MIDI (2 cards). Extensive routing capabilities.
    The -: the computer has to be the master wordclock, no possibility of external clock so.
    The initial programming of the software a little "gas factory", after it is OK.

    Did you try many other models before buying it?
    No. Direct purchase without testing.

    How do you rate the quality / price?
    Like all Yamaha cards, a little pricey but very good quality.

    With experience, you do again this choice? ...
    At the time yes.…

    At the time yes. At the present time, we must admit that many manufacturers start to FW and not do too badly (eg Studiolive ...). MY16 mLAN remains an excellent choice secondhand.

    I use it for 3 years now and then I tried it in a 01V and 01V96.
    This is one of MY cards of most interest to the Yamaha digital consoles.
    The positive thing is that you turn your console FireWire sound card, and that's HUGE!
    Tried first on a 01V96, I found an audio dropout problem. I mean by "dropping" that every 5 or 10 minutes, the card has no output to the DAW for about 0.5 sec. I tried several solutions (update drivers, update DAW upgrade the console, ...) nothing worked, the problem persists. Maybe it is my 01V96 that a problem, I do not know. but it's really annoying.

    Apart from that, you end up with a mixing console, a laptop connected via FireWire, and we have a complete digital studio is fantastic.
    value for money is very good, since once the card plugged in, it has a sound card 8OUT 16in (on the 01V96) and continuing in more opportunities for mixing console. What you ask for?
    The people demand a driver Yamaha thoughtful, reliable, practical and stylish? Well the people waiting, I started to felt to be back with my driver Hoontech 1998. Nothing is clear, no aid, Yamaha does not care, we must be dreaming ...
    Once configured, it works, but until then it pulls the hair is so lousy!
    With experience, I would do without hesitation that choice (subject to correcting the bug with the 01V96).
    For mobile use, is impeccable, you can mix both a concert and recording cheaply.

    + 01V to turn a sound card
    + Super convenient mobile use (and in the studio, unfortunately)
    + Choice of FireWire
    + Simple routing in the console
    + Latency? What latency?

    - Driver inherited from another time
    - Audio dropout problem (but maybe me)
    - Routing software appalling
