mLAN music production studio. 24/96 IO to FireWire enabled computers. 28 784 1229 channel digital mixer with 2 internal effects processors and individual dynamics on each channel PLUS complete DAW / software control for Cubase, Logic, Sonar and Digital Performer.

Yamaha’s 01X is the first product to feature Yamaha’s next generation mLAN technology. Offering high speed audio and MIDI networking between computers, synthesizers and other mLAN compatible products, the 01X offers more than any previous computer music product has ever delivered.

Built on world-renowned 96Khz DSP technologies, found in Yamaha’s flagship DM2000, 02R96 and 01V96 professional digital mixers, the 01X has massive power under the hood, at an amazingly affordable price. Yamaha’s 01X not only works as a professional digital mixing interface for your computer but also works as a total recall, stand-alone digital mixer, ideally suited for live performances. Full dynamics processing, including compressors, gates and limiters as well as 4 band parametric equalisation on every one of the 28 digital mixing channels, and two world-class 32-bit effects processors means that the 01X puts no strain on your host computer for mixing or audio processing. Fully motorized faders mean that your mix is recalled at the touch of a button, and is accurately tracked during the course of your song.

The 01X offers remote control power never before seen in a multi function product of this type. With a level of integrated DAW support normally found only in dedicated remote control products costing as much as 01X itself, the 01X can also be the ultimate human user interface between you and your software. As well as being the perfect remote control partner for your sequencer or digital audio workstation software, 01X will also control a wide range of parameters with many of your favourite software synthesizers.

As the 01X also works as a multi-port MIDI interface, offering hundreds of channels, your existing hardware MIDI devices can be connected directly to the 01X, making it truly the heart of your working environment.

I jumped from gina in 1997 to Sea Sound in 1999, to Motu 896 in 2004 and finally to de incredible YAMAHA 01x in 2006, all in one, is really good it is a dream come true for a producer and a musician with no time to waist installing hardware that makes you crazy, I do jingles, tv comercials, and produce some comercial music also with a mac pro and logic pro 8, runs perfectly, noise level is really low, automation is breath taking and in real time, monitoring is really accurate, it makes my life so much easy and happy, no bugs no extrage noises.

The Yamaha 01X sounds, works, and looks amazing !, what else can you ask for ?

Yamaha O1x

Utilising Yamahas latest mLAN chipset, the Yamaha O1x was designed in order to combine everything customers will need to transform any computer equipped with a firewire port into a professional quality music production system. However, although the eventual release date was somewhat later than most people expected, the original releases still failed to provide all users with suitable drivers that could work effectively on all systems, resulting in an anything but a trouble free system. I am happy to report that Yamaha have since been able to rectify most of the original flaws with a plethora of free upgrades via their web site, and only now is mLAN really starting to prove why more and more people are starting to adopt Yamaha’s way of thinking.
In essence the O1X is an external audio/midi interface equipped with 2 XLR inputs, both equipped with 48v phantom power and six, quarter inch, balanced line inputs, one of which being a very useful high impedance input. Two aux outputs are provided along with R & L monitor sends, a stereo headphone jack and a digital output for digital effects units or CD burners. On the front panel the O1x has eight motorised channel faders and a generous array of digital effects and dynamics, which are surprisingly good quality for the money. On closer inspection of the O1x’s control service mode, it is apparent that this too is also of good quality, allowing users to make adjustments to EQ, Pan and even plug-in settings, without having to touch the mouse once. It is also worth noting that since the O1X was released mainly for Cubase and Logic users, many other leading software manufactures have added remote control compatibility to their latest software releases.
If asked to comment on any disadvantages of this unit, I would say that the multi-purpose faders and pan pots can sometimes cause confusion and the control surface can sometimes be a bit awkward. However, in time users should become familiar with it. The most common problem I have encountered whilst using this unit is that on its own the O1X only offers 2 XLR (phantom powered) inputs. However, the ever increasing number of new mLAN products appearing on the market mean that expanding this product to your specific needs has never been easier.
Generally, I feel that the advantages of this unit far out way the disadvantages. The good build quality and impressive display make this feature-rich unit the perfect choice for many project studios. Future proofing is truly achievable and although similar products have since been released by the likes of digi-design and M-Audio the O1X continues to be the most versatile of all these products on the market.

Amazing unit, never mind the price. It's like aliens made this thing. Excellent build quality and it's not even made in China (Japan)! Would give 10/10 but I am disappointed with Yamaha Canada service and support (but then again I'm annoyed by most Canadian things). Truly revolutionary product. Yamaha claims that all you need is this rig along with mic(s), monitors and computer is really true.

You might think that you already have the necessary connections, but many of today’s interfaces come with multiple inputs and outputs (for recording bands and outputting to multi-channel surround systems), bundled software, on board sounds and, in some cases, much more, so really are worthy and cost-effective additions to your computer music set-up. In this part of the Dolphin Computer Music guide we’ll discuss all of the interfacing options currently available…
