Quick Start Guide

This is a “quick start guide” designed for people about to use Yamaha 01V96 for the first time. It is not 
a guide to audio mixing and it assumes the reader has experience of analog mixers. It does not replace 
the manual; we recommend referring to the manual if further information is required. 

328 pages of manual and then the 
editor and driver guides. Mmmmm..... 
there has got to be a quicker way...
