The link worked fine for me. .....You need Real One Player to view the clip.

If you're saying that you think mLan looks pretty good, ..I agree. ....And I've always liked Yamaha quality.

I still use a Yamaha FX900 Mutieffects Processor that I've had for 16yrs. and it still sounds & works perfectly. ...I'm hoping that the O1X will be as good in quality.

How is Presonus staying away from mLan? ....Please forgive me, but I don't know what you mean.

I wasn't aware that Presonus had anything to do with mLan.

Take care,
Nelson

basically, the presonus firestation used mlan, but it caused no end of trouble for most people, even though most people loved the preamp and the A/D. the problems were usually it going out of sync, and the midi ports being non-functional etc. the problem was that mlan existed for a while, but yamaha didn't really push the tech, and the support was bad. for example, yamaha had a mlan virtual patchbay app, but that was only for os9.. in fact, yamaha themselves didn't really have any killer mlan hardware till this year...

So, overall, ...are you pro or con when it comes to mLan and / or the O1X?

Thanks for the input.

This would be really nice, but for now wishfull thinking for the Firepod has no tubes at all, although it's probably a very desirable device.

Nels:
Until I see the new and improved mlan protocol used by the newest of Yamaha gear, I'd have to say that mlan was only good in theory, and ended up very messy in implementation.


Macca:
The FirePOD does have tubes. In the specs, it says "Eight class A mic preamps." Class-A refers to the tube amplification design.

Okay, I need some clarification here.

It was my understanding that "mLan" was a synonym for Firewire, in the same vein as "?V^kVkm I bring this up is that I JUST read a post about how "VST" and "VSTi" were being interchanged a little too freeelly with "AU".
So when azusa made his comment, I daresay things got a little " things that make you think-hmm".

Yes?
No?
Maybe?
