Yamaha digital mixing studio 01x User Manual

01X   Owner’s Manual

Here, the 01X functions simultaneously as a front-end/

audio interface for a computer system as well as a fully 

digital mixer for your sequencer audio tracks. 

With the mLAN connection, this system allows you to 

route up to sixteen independent audio channels (plus the 

two-channel stereo master) from the computer to the input 

channels of the 01X, and have the eight rear-panel inputs 

available for your vocals and other instruments.  Naturally, 

all Dynamics, EQ and effect processing are available for 

this 24-channel setup.  Finally, you can also use this same 

configuration for mixdown—returning the entire sound 

with processing to the computer for mastering.

This advanced hardware/software hybrid system combines 

the conveniences of computer-based mixing/processing 

with the intuitive control surface and digital processing of 

the 01X.

In this application, the 01X Channel Module plug-in and 

the Studio Manager software (both included with the 01X) 

are used to link mixing and processing operations between 

the 01X and your computer.  The result is a transparent, 

exceptionally easy-to-use hardware/software combination.

The panel controls on the 01X and the controls of Studio 

Manager on the computer are linked directly—adjusting a 

parameter on one changes that of the other.  The Studio 

Manager has conventional channel strips that you can con-

trol from the 01X.  It also has special windows for the 

Dynamics processing, EQ, and effects.  The EQ window, 

for example, features a frequency response graph that 

changes as you make the settings—very intuitive and very 

easy.

With this configuration, you can use the channel process-

ing on the 01X to hear the intended final sound, but record 

dry to computer.

The 01X Channel Module plug-in can be used afterwards 

to actually process the recorded sound as you wish.  More-

over, you can copy settings from Studio Manager to the 

01X Channel Module and adjust/tweak the mix using the 

Channel Module plug-in.  Settings you’ve made or 

changed in the Channel Module can also be transferred 

back to Studio Manager.
