I was running studio manager software between an IbookG4 and the 01v96 and everything was working well... I needed to do a bit of spring cleaning and decided to upgrade the os on my G4 to Tiger. My install was an erase and start from scratch... Everything else seems to work fine and the software and files I decided to transfer (from dvd backups) work well. The only issue at this point is after downloading Yamaha's Driver, Studio Mgr Software, and editor... I cannot get the 'puter to see the board on the USB bus. I have queried the 01v96yahoo group and tried a few hours (3498.4) of BS getting them to talk, so far no luck...
I "think" I have covered all the obvious bases, The UsB midi driver i have downloaded from yamaha is listed as good through 10.4.5 and I am at 10.4.8... I have enabled ports configed the ports on the console itself... numerous re boots, both devices... I know it's not a good thing but I have dragged the whole yamaha folder to the trash, re downloaded and installed again, still no link... is there possibly a prefs file I need to delete ?... I usually find I'm the problem, won't be surprised if that's the case. I'll go check the nuendo thread, from what I have been able to find so far It's kind of hit and miss situation for a lot of users Thanks for your help.
I think that you can take the hit and miss bit with a grain of salt. The original Tiger drivers were a bit dodgy. Sometimes it was a bit finicky to make a connection. But I have found that with the latest drivers/editors, the whole thing has been rock solid.
I either have conflicting drivers or a non functioning usb port it seems... no matter what I do, I am not seeing an option in the system set up for usb port IO... Would anyone know how to properly delete and re-load the Driver, editor and SM software ?
Not a big football fan, but I heard the Devil was buying up space heaters just in case the Saints beat Dallas tonight... Seems like hell will freeze over before I ever get this computer to talk to the 01v96... and it certainly will if the Saints ever go to the Superbow........ ;-J )))))
- Start with a hardware re-set of your board to undo any improper setting that may have been selected during your efforts to solve this problem. (Power up while holding down the Scene Memory Store button).
Open Studio manager, open the 01v96 Editor inside of studio manager. Open "file-SYSTEM setup inside of the Editor's window, not SM's window. At the top of the new System Setup window that will open, Select midi port 2 for both the input and output ports. device ID can be 1. Select yes for every other selection box on the page.
- On the hardware mixer itself, open DIO. Ignore Target device. Leave the entire DIO MIDI Setup page at it's default settings. Go to the DIO MIDI/HOST page. Go to "Studio Manager and for port, select "USB", "2". ID will be "1".
Yamaha supplies free software for all of their digital products that allows for them to be completely remote controlled by computer. Any setting on the 01v96 can be operated via the hardware itself or via the computer. ALL settings, such as eq, dynamics, etc, and in fact entire snapshots of the entire board including fader positions, can also be saved to the computer for later re-call.
I often find it handy to use the computer to re-configure the board before a shoot that requires a different approach such as a day that will involve live records and playback. I will pre-enter the various board configurations that I need, including input and output routing, and then save those configurations to the computer. The really cool thing is that you don't even need to have the 01v96 connected to do this; you can just open up studio manger and edit your board's configurations from the software. That means you can even do it in the comfort of your own home during prep, or the night before, etc. Then, when those configurations are needed, I simply re-call them to the board from the computer.
Using this same technique, in the very unlikely event that one of these boards were to fail, one could plug in a replacement console and simply upload ALL of your settings into the new board and then very quickly continue where you left off.
After one (two) of "THOSE" nights trying to figure this out I'm not sure what I was doing wrong, but following your instructions has me up and runnin' SM did crash the first time I tried to sync but it seems to be fine now.
If I worked for Yamaha I would want to hire you in a second... those screen shots illustrate a very versatile patching machine... Your instructions are actually for our use and not the pro tools contol stuff they are marketing to... I am beginning to have that moment of clarity where some of this is making sense to my ole grey matter... I cannot express my gratitude enough... Thank You Darren !
If the driver listed is not the right version or operating system, search our driver archive for the correct version. Enter Yamaha 01V96 into the search box above and then submit. In the results, choose the best match for your PC and operating system.
Once you have downloaded your new driver, you'll need to install it. In Windows, use a built-in utility called Device Manager, which allows you to see all of the devices recognized by your system, and the drivers associated with them.
In Windows 8, swipe up from the bottom, or right-click anywhere on the desktop and choose "All Apps" -> swipe or scroll right and choose "Control Panel" (under Windows System section) -> Hardware and Sound -> Device Manager
There's always someone requesting a Linux version of some DAW. Scott from Image-Line made a truthful reply that they wont devote time to an extremely small amount of users. Unfortunately delusional Linux users don't get that. Sure there is Bitwig, Tracktion, Mixbus. I have those and don't care to use them. I could build a DAW from scratch and have it up and running before attempting to use Linux.
Some things that are often annoying about Linux users is they don't know how small or difficult their world is. Some people think they are really cool because they can use it. Others feel like they are giving the middle finger to MS. They like to argue with Windows users more than Mac users. Apple had a marketing ploy one time as how simple a Mac is. While I'm a fan of open source software a developers webpage makes it obvious they use Linux. There average person just wants to find the download with less tech speak. Opening Mixbus has audio/midi setup. Like I'm going to change that often? Aesthetically it's not really appealing.
I've tried the Linux train before. Once I forked out $80 for a modem just to use it. One time I couldn't understand their geek speak and erased Windows. Another time when I used USB wifi adapters there was this "easy peezy" way to get one running was to type characters in a command line (had no clue what they meant) only to have run but had to do this every time I booted it up. Hardware support is lacking but don't tell the delusional Linux user that.
A large amount of computer users are still ignorant of how things work on a computer. If someone like my mom could install and run Linux then it has reached prime time. The Linux is easy crowd claim to fame is using a browser and email. As for the world of multi media is like a male not having a prom date at a school where the female ratio is 10-1. Let me know when Avid starts making the industry standard available for Linux. The options for Linux are lame. Let me know when that famous producer starts using it.
Then again I use a form of Linux everyday with a phone. There is no real advantage over Apple. There's an app for everything thing and it doesn't take much for you to run out of space. Some developers haven't figured out use that flash drive you added. So if you run an Apple or Linux device there's on guarantee that developers will make your phone obsolete. I've bitched a Fry's Food for their inept developers making their app obsolete while competitors like Basha's and Alberton/Safeway still run and update on my phone. So my purchases are now 70/30 in favor of Safeway. Never give your developers that much leeway. The Fry's technology dept. is a great example of clueless developers out of touch with consumers.
I've heard all of the pro Linux arguments ,YAWN! I could copy and paste them all day. They have the whole planet to convince it's the best but it aint happenin'. It's like Charlie Brown wating for the Great Pumpkin to arrive after the bloody violent war between MS and Apple and they will be the survivors and rise above the ashes. Even with the headaches of the evolving Windows 10 and Apple's pricing it's not going to happen.
But I think that with something like the latest Linux Mint, any granny could install it and be up and running in 15 mins without ever opening a command line interface. Perfect for those folks that just use a web browser all day. Very stable and secure, with decent native replacements for standard office suites and email apps.
That said, Windows power users and content creators will never be happy with the limited app ecosystem in Linux as it is today. As there are currently not enough desktop Linux users to attract quality developers and software companies to the Linux market. "Chicken or egg" thing.
By comparison, Linux servers are powering the majority of the internet and cloud computing servers, and has been a huge success. I believe that the majority of the Linux community are programmers or system admins. So, "techy" by trade. And the reason for much of the "buzzword bingo" on the Linux forums.
An interesting trend that I have noticed this year is the number of folks still running Windows 7, and flatly refusing to ever upgrade to Windows 10. They realize that Win7 support expires next year, so they are beginning to test various Linux distros as dual boot configs alongside their current Windows installations, to see if they are comfortable with using that as their main OS after Win7 end of life. Many of those same folks are also not interested in running straight towards the Apple camp.
