MOX6/MOX8 Editor VST Installation Guide 3

MOX6/MOX8 Editor VST is a convenient tool which lets you edit and save the various parameters of your MOX6/

MOX8 synthesizer. These include Common/Part Mixing parameters (edited in the Song or Pattern mode of the

MOX6/MOX8) such as Volume, Pan, EG, and Cutoff, as well as parameters of a Voices assigned to each Part

(edited in the Voice mode of the MOX6/MOX8). Thanks to the easy-to-understand graphical interface, you can edit

various parameters of the MOX6/MOX8 right from your computer—using the mouse to adjust the virtual knobs,

sliders, and buttons and entering values from the computer keyboard. Finally, all the changes you have made can

be saved to your computer or transmitted to the MOX6/MOX8 instrument.

The MOX6/MOX8 Editor VST, based on the “VST3 technology” by Steinberg, works as a VST3 plug-in with the

Cubase series (version 5.1.1 or later). The MOX6/MOX8 Editor VST also works as the same way as other VST

instrument software, allowing you to save the edited settings of the MOX6/MOX8, or use them for another project. In

addition, you can handle the MOX6/MOX8 Voices in the Media Bay window in Cubase when using the MOX6/MOX8

Editor VST with Cubase, allowing you to search for, listen, and play the MOX6/MOX8 Voices within Media Bay in

Cubase series. The MOX6/MOX8 Editor VST provides a comprehensive and seamless music production

environment—making the use of hardware and software both easier and much more efficient.

The actual installation steps and the use of the software itself differs depending on the operating system that you

are using. Please refer to the appropriate installation instructions.

1 Verify that your system (Cubase series) meets the operating requirements of each software

program.

Precautions when using the USB TO HOST connector

When connecting the computer to the USB TO HOST connector, make sure to observe the following points. Failing to do so

risks freezing the computer and corrupting or even losing the data. If the computer or the instrument freezes, turn the power

to the instrument off or restart the computer.

• Before connecting the computer to the USB TO HOST connector, exit from any power-saving mode (such

as suspended, sleep, standby) of the computer.

• Before turning on the power to the instrument, connect the computer to the USB TO HOST connector.

• Execute the following before turning the power to the instrument on/off or plugging/unplugging the USB

cable to/from the USB TO HOST connector.

- Quit any open applications.

- Make sure that data is not being transmitted from the instrument. (Data is transmitted only by playing

notes on the keyboard or playing back a song.)

• While a USB device is connected to the instrument, you should wait for six seconds or more between these

operations: (1) when turning the power of the instrument off then on again, or (2) when alternately

connecting/disconnecting the USB cable.

Installing the Software

NOTICE

MOX6/MOX8 Editor VST Installation Guide 4

These are basically the same as those of the Cubase series (version 5.1.1 or later) as a host application. Regarding

Mac OS, only Mac OS 10.5 or later is supported. Note that MOX6/MOX8 Extension does not support PowerPC

architectures.

To use the MOX6/MOX8 Editor VST as a VST3 plug-in of the Cubase series, you’ll need to install the following

software programs. Follow the appropriate instructions below corresponding to the software you’re using.

• Yamaha Steinberg USB Driver Version 1.2.0 or later

• MOX6/MOX8 Editor VST

Driver Installation

To operate your Yamaha hardware from your computer via a USB cable, you’ll need to install the Yamaha Steinberg

USB Driver.

The Yamaha Steinberg USB Driver is necessary when transferring Audio/MIDI data back and forth between your

computer’s Cubase series and the MOX6/MOX8.

n MOX6/MOX8 Editor VST cannot be used over a MIDI connection.

n The MOX6/MOX8 Editor VST will transmit/receive the related messages as MIDI messages to/from the MOX6/MOX8 only when the

computer to which Yamaha Steinberg USB driver has been installed is connected directly to the MOX6/MOX8 via USB. Note that the

different connection manner (via MIDI cables, etc.) disables the communication of the Editor related messages. Even if such a

connection is executed, make sure to connect the MOX6/MOX8 directly to the computer via USB.
