mLAN On The Mac

Here’s the full text of the petition:

Yamaha have been able to get Mlan integrated in Apple's OS and Core Audio, which is supposedly a great thing for Mlan... But as a result they claim that this is also supposedly why they cannot control the timing of updates to the drivers... Mlan users on the Mac haven't seen an update to a barely functional Mlan driver on the Mac since 2004.

This is what we are waiting for:

(1) Sync from a device other than the Mac,

(2) No more CPU bursts,

(3) No more random offset,

(4) GP able to act as an actual patchbay.

(5) The new drivers should be backward compatible to at least Mac OS 10.4.4

(6) The new drivers should be compatible with PPC G4 and G5 computers

(7) The new drivers should be free for all present owners of Mlan equipment using Mac OSX

  Given the appalling job Yamaha did with the drivers for the DS2416 on the Mac (some of us will not forget too quickly), I think it will take lots of pressure to make them get it right this time!

  Actually the question are

  Is Yamaha going to make MLan an open protocol or not?

  Are we going to see new MLan products soon?

  If the answer to these is NO then we can probably start looking for replacement gear.
