EXBMLAN

Introduction

The EXB-mLAN is an option board for connecting the TRITON STUDIO or TRITON Rack to an mLAN system. Other mLAN-compatible electronic musical instruments and computers can be connected easily using a IEEE 1394 cable, allowing high-volume transmission and reception of audio and MIDI data ( 48kHz sampling Frequency audio data can be transmitted and received via TRITON-Rack's 2 IN 6 OUT) --- a great convenience when using recording software on your computer. Included software allows the connection status of connected devices to be flexibly programmed from your computer, and OMS/ASIO drivers for Macintosh OS9 are also included.

EXB-mLAN specifications
• Data transmission rate: 200 Mbps
• Transmitted data: digital audio data = 8 in / 8 out (6 out available for TRITON-Rack), MIDI data = 16 channels x 1 port
• Connectors: mLAN (IEEE 1394) x 3 ports, serial x 1 port
• Dimensions: 200 (W) x 86 (D) x34 (H) mm / 7.87”(W) x3.39”(D) x1.34”(H)
• Weight: 430 g / 15.18oz.
• Included items: application CD-ROM (for Macintosh OS9), IEEE 1394 cable (4.5 m) x 1


Note: This option is compatible with the mLAN A specification, and only currently for Macintosh OS9.

What is mLAN?
mLAN is a communication standard that uses an audio and music data transmission protocol in conjunction with IEEE 1394 (a versatile interface that encompasses computers, musical instruments, and digital AV equipment of the future), allowing high-quality audio and MIDI to be simultaneously transmitted and received over a single cable. A maximum of approximately 100 channels of audio data or 256 ports of MIDI data (16 channels x 256 ports) can be transmitted and received (at a 200 Mbps transmission rate). mLAN is incredibly flexible, allowing up to 63 devices to be daisy-chained, and even letting you change the input/output connections between devices without reconnecting cables. From studio to stage, mLAN allows sophisticated and trouble-free setups.
