About Open Plug-in Technology

You can start mLAN Graphic Patchbay as either stand-alone software or as a plug-in for an Open Plugin Technology compatible application.

Open Plug-in Technology (OPT) is a new software format that enables you to control MIDI devices from a music software sequencer. For example, OPT enables you to start and operate various parts of your music system, such as Plug-in Board editors and mixing control editors, directly from an OPT-compatible sequencer. OPT also makes it unnecessary to set MIDI drivers for each application, streamlining your music production system and making all operations more convenient and seamless.

About OPT Levels

The client application and its compatibility with OPT can be divided into three levels, as shown below.

Level 1 (OPT Panels) provides basic support for opening and displaying OPT control panels that can transmit data via a clients’ external MIDI connectors.

Typically, this enables basic hardware editor control panels to operate properly.

Level 2 (OPT Processors) provides support for real-time MIDI processors and panel automation. Typically, this enables both real-time and offline MIDI effects (e.g., arpeggiators, transposers, etc.) to operate properly and supply automation to OPT panels.

Level 3 (OPT Views) provides support for edit views and MIDI processors and panels that require direct access to client sequencer storage structures.

Typically, this enables support of sophisticated MIDI edit views (e.g., list editors, auto accompaniment, data checkers, etc.).

OPT Level Implementation for the mLAN Graphic Patchbay

This chart shows the OPT-compatibility of mLAN Graphic Patchbay.

mLAN Graphic Patchbay operation

OPT levels of the client application

Operation support Operation limits

VIEWS (Level 3) Yes None

PROCESSORS (Level 2) Yes None

PANELS (Level 1) Yes (with limitations) None

All mLAN Graphic Patchbay functions work under the client applications of any OPT level (Panels

(Level 1), Processors (Level 2), and Views (Level 3)).

• Certain operations may not work as expected if there is no corresponding function in the client application (sequencer, etc.). The highest level of implementation for the client application is indicated in the OPT logo (which appears along with the version information in the application).

• The correct name of the manufacturer or vendor may not be displayed depending on the particular card you are using.

w Required CPU

Determines the computer’s required processing power (the amount of processing load applied to the computer by the mLAN driver).

You can also control the processing load by adjusting the latency in “ASIO mLAN Control Panel.”

(see below)

Latency and Required CPU

A particular computer configuration (i.e., processing speed and system memory size) may affect the computer’s ability to properly record and play back audio data in your audio sequencer, resulting in noise or other audio problems.

In most cases, you can solve these problems by adjusting the latency (delay time). (See “Latency of

mLAN” on page 16.)


15

#mLAN InstallGuide_E2.fm Page 16 Monday, October 4, 2004 11:53 AM

However depending on the performance of your computer and on how it is being used (i.e., whether other applications are being used simultaneously, or whether multiple mLAN devices are connected, etc.), you may still experience noise or sound interruption even after increasing the latency. In this case, change the

“Required CPU” setting to “Medium Performance” or “Low Performance” to lighten the processing load on your computer, and then adjust the latency (the Preferred Buffer Size setting below) once again.

• Lower latency values result in shorter delay times and work better for real-time recording and playback.

• Higher latency values result in longer delay times, but allow for use of more audio channels and plug-in effects (thus reducing the computer’s momentary processing load).

Conversely, if you experience no noise or interruptions even with the “Preferred Buffer Size” setting described below set to the minimum, you can minimize the overall latency by setting Required CPU to

“High Performance” and then adjusting the latency once again.

●

Latency of mLAN

Audio latency (msec)

Audio latency is determined by the “Preferred Buffer Size” setting in the “ASIO mLAN Control Panel.”

The audio latency value is shown in the “ASIO mLAN Control Panel” (see below).

MIDI latency (msec)

The MIDI latency value varies with the mLAN driver version.

For information on the MIDI latency of your mLAN driver version, refer to the “MIDI_Latency.txt” file, which you can access by selecting [Program files | mLAN Tools | YAMAHA].

●

ASIO mLAN Control Panel

When you start the ASIO mLAN Control Panel, the system displays the following dialog box.

q w e t r q FireWire Card ID

The options here are the same as those for the 1394 Adapter Card ID parameter for Windows as

described on page 15.

w Latency

Determines the basic latency of the mLAN communications, or how quickly the data is processed after a command is issued. Choose an option appropriate to your environment.

About latency in an mLAN network

The particular configuration of your computer (processing speed, system memory size, etc.) may affect its ability to properly record and play back audio data in your audio sequencer, resulting in noise or other audio problems. In most cases, you can solve the problem by adjusting the latency (delay time).

• A small latency value results in a short delay time and gives optimum response for real-time recording/playback.

• A large latency value results in a long delay time, but allows for use of more audio channels and plug-in effects.

● Types of latency in an mLAN network

Audio latency (msec)

Audio latency is determined by the basic latency (selected in the mLAN Driver Setup window) and Preferred Buffer Size (specified in the ASIO mLAN Control Panel) (see next page).

MIDI latency (msec)

The MIDI latency value varies with the mLAN driver version.

For information on the MIDI latency of your mLAN driver version, refer to the “MIDI_Latency.txt” file, which you can access by selecting [mLAN Tools | YAMAHA | Manual] on the corresponding computer.


● ASIO mLAN Control Panel.

When using the mLAN ASIO Driver, open the ASIO Control Panel within the driver settings of the DAW software (the particular menu depends on the software you are using) and set the Preferred Buffer Size as needed.

• The initial setting of the Preferred Buffer Size of the mLAN ASIO driver is the smallest value.

q w e r t y q FireWire Card ID

The options here are the same as those for the 1394 Adapter Card ID parameter for Windows as

described on page 15.

r Latency

It indicates the audio latency value for transmission and reception.

Audio latency is determined by the basic latency (selected in the mLAN Driver Setup window) and

Preferred Buffer Size ( w).
