I use the new FW driver which is incredibly stable and starts up perfect every time (not always the case with the old AI driver or the unified one) I don't know what the problems or options are as far as the motif is concerned though so others may be able to help you with this. I only use my single n12 and the new driver works great. When your desk arrives I would guess it would still need to be upgraded as well. (I got a replacement and this did)

Hi,
I'm awaiting my ordered n8 that I plan to use on a Dell laptop with a
PCMCIA firewire card (TI-based). OS is Windows XP (32-bit). I will use Cubase AI
but also Ableton Live and maybe Reaper. Motif ES is also used but I have no
mLAN16E for it (possible future upgrade though).
Which drivers and firmware shall I use? In've come across the following names of drivers:
- n Drivers
- AI drivers
- WDM-drivers
- mLAN Driver/mLAN Tools
- Yamaha Steinberg FW Driver Yamaha driver download page states the following about TOOLS for n V2.0.0 for
Windows Vista/XP 32bit:
"After updating the n8/n12 firmware, the n8/n12 will NOT be able to be
used with the n Driver, AI Driver or mLAN Driver/mLAN Tools. Also keep in mind
that the previous firmware version of the n8/n12 cannot be restored. If you use
n12/n8 with 01X, i88x, mLAN16E (option for MOTIF ES and S90ES) and MY-16mLAN
(option for 01V/01V96, 02R96, DM1000, DM2000, AW2400 ) via mLAN, please do not
use these software update."
What will I be missing if don't do the update and which drivers shall I use
then?
Regards / Mattias
