System Examples

This section introduces typical system examples that feature the mLAN16E. Refer to

these examples for information on connecting external devices, such as microphones,

musical instruments, and computers.

For information on installing the mLAN16E, refer to the section in the

owner’s manual for your mLAN16E-compatible device on “Installing

Optional Hardware.”

The number of audio channels and MIDI connectors used for data transfer

varies depending on the mLAN16E-compatible device. MOTIF ES can provide

up to 4 Stereo In/16 Mono (8 Stereo) Out audio channels and 4 In/4 Out MIDI

connectors.

Connecting a MOTIF ES to a computer

Use an IEEE1394 cable to connect the IEEE1394 connector on an IEEE1394-compatible

computer to the mLAN connector on an mLAN16E-equipped MOTIF ES. Use the mLAN

Auto Connector or mLAN Graphic Patchbay (See page 12) software application on the

computer to patch the audio and MIDI signals and to set up the wordclock. Connect-

ing the MOTIF ES to the computer via mLAN enables you to do the following:

• Transfer data of multiple audio channels between the MOTIF ES and the computer

• Simultaneously record in the sequence software (a) your performance on the MOTIF

ES and (b) the performance of the computer sequence software that uses the MOTIF

ES as a MIDI tone generator

• Monitor via the MOTIF ES the audio output from the computer and the audio out-

put from the MOTIF ES

If you select “Normal Voice” or “Plug-in Voice” in Voice mode on the MOTIF

ES, audio signals are output only from OUTPUT L/R.

For more information on the MOTIF ES inputs and outputs and corresponding

mLAN IN/OUT, refer to the “Connections,” “Quick Guide–Computer applica-

tions” and “Audio Input Part (AUDIO IN)” sections of the MOTIF ES Owner’s

Manual.

Use Auto Connector or Graphic Patchbay to change the number of audio

channels that communicate with the computer. To minimize the load on the

computer, do not make mLAN connections in Auto Connector or Graphic

Patchbay using any unused channels.
