Launching Yamaha Studio Manager ver2
• If you are using a non-Studio Connections
compliant application (something other than
Cubase SX3/Nuendo3) you will open Studio
Manager separate from your main sequencer
program. Basically, setup your DAW software
– we will give a few examples below; then
launch the Studio Manager host program. You
will save your data in a separate .YSM file
• If you are using SQ01v2: You do not need
Studio Manager in SQ01v2. The Editors run
within SQ01 without Studio Manager2.
• If you are using Cubase SX3/Nuendo3 you will
be able to launch Studio Manager from the
“Devices” pulldown
SONAR 3 / SONAR 4
Launch Sonar and setup for using mLAN as
normal. This includes:
o OPTIONS> MIDI Devices: Setup for using
mLAN IN/OUT 1-4
o OPTIONS> Instruments: If you use an
Instrument Definition to select your sounds
set it up
o OPTIONS> Audio: Setup for ASIO mLAN
operation. This will include the three tabs
“General, Advanced and Drivers”. Make
sure you activate the driver for the number
of inputs and outputs you have active.
Setup your sampling rate and bit
resolution, etc. Re-launch, if necessary.
o OPTIONS> Project: Set up Sonar to your
own particular preferences. If you plan on
using the Motif ES in sync with Sonar set
the SYNC to transmit MIDI clock/MTC to
Motif ES, etc. Setup your Metronome.
o OPTIONS> Control Surface: Set Sonar to
communicate with the Motif ES on PORT 4.
This will allow you to Remote Control Sonar
from the front panel of the Motif ES. Use
either “Mackie Control” or the “Yamaha
General Mode 01X” protocols.
When you launch Studio Manager as a separate
application you will need to setup the Modify
Workspace screen and then set the MIDI Port
screen.
• All the Yamaha Device Editors on your computer will
appear at left. Select the editors you want to
associate with this session. Click “ADD” for each to
create your “Workspace” (shown below). Select:
o Motif ES 6/7/8 (Voice)
o Motif ES 6/7/8 (Multi)
• Click the MIDI Ports tab and select:
Input Ports: Yamaha mLAN MIDI In and Yamaha mLAN
MIDI In (3)
Output Ports: Yamaha mLAN MIDI Out
and Yamaha
mLAN MIDI Out (3)
The Yamaha mLAN MIDI In
and Yamaha mLAN MIDI Out
Ports will be used to communicate between the Voice
and Multi Editors and the Motif ES.
The Yamaha mLAN MIDI In (3)
and Yamaha mLAN MIDI
Out (3) will be used to remote control the Multi-Part
Editor from the front panel of the Motif ES.
