The 01x works fine with Live.

I'll gladly help you if you can be more precise on your problems...

First, let's fix the audio/mLAN. Assuming you have installed the drivers correctly (see http://www.01xray.com/forums/showflat.p ... ber=123157 for a walk-through), remember you must start the driver before using it (system tray icon "Yamaha mLAN manager"). Only then will ASIO/mLAN be available to applications. Pardon me if this is obvious to you already, but we must start somewhere.

Once the driver is started, you may want to adjust the number of I/O channels using the Autoconnector menu option. Start with a reasonable number like 8/8, you can always add some later when things work.

Then start Live, open the preferences dialog, Audio tab, choose the right driver (ASIO mLAN), open the input then output configs to activate the channels.

PS: I would NOT advise to upgrade the drivers untill you have a working system, this can be REALLY touchy.

once you got things running (ie Live outputing sound and it's midi led flashing), you may want to try MCCL(*) for the remote part. But I'd reckon it's not a good idea to add anything to your (friend's) system untill the basics are working.

Mmmmh. As I said above, let's get that system upright. No need for a remote if you have no sound I reckon. Keep us informed of your progress...
