Launching and Setting Up the Studio Manager/LS9 Editor

(1) Launch the YAMAHA Studio Manager either from the Programs menu or from the desktop shortcut�
Select [Setup] from the Studio Manager [File] menu� Select “LS9” in the list on the left side of the window, then click the [Add] button� Confirm 
that “LS9” has been added to the list on the right side of the window�

(2) Next, click the MIDI Ports tab to open the MIDI Ports window. The Device Name specified in the DME-N Driver will appear 

in both the Input Ports and Output Ports windows, and both should be checked� Click the [OK] button and the LS9 icon should 
appear in the Studio Manager window� Double-click the LS9 icon to launch the LS9 Editor�

(3) When the LS9 Editor has launched, select [System Setup] 
from the [File] menu� Select the port you intend to use for 
communication in the window that opens� Both the Input Port 
and Output Port settings should be matched to the settings 
you made in the Studio Manager (LS9-32 in this example)� 
If an administrator password has been set for the LS9, enter 

the password in the [Administrator Password] field. When all 

settings have been made as required, click the [OK] button to 
close the window�

Click the [RE SYNC] button to open the “Re Synchronize” window via which 
you can synchronize the LS9 and computer settings�
If the LS9 scene and library have already been stored, use [Direction] in the 
window to select [Console -> PC] and then click the [OK] button to backup 
the LS9 settings to the computer� Always make sure that you have selected 
the appropriate direction when synchronizing the console and computer�

Double-click.

If the LS9 and computer 
are properly connected, the 
[ONLINE] indicator will be 
highlighted in green. In this 
state the LS9 and LS9 Editor 
parameters are synchronized 
so that when a parameter 
is edited the change is 
reflected on both the LS9 
and the computer.

If you click [Set Default], the 
settings you have been made 
will be loaded as the initial 
defaults the next time the LS9 
Editor is launched.
