Yamaha supplies free software for all of their digital products that allows for them to be completely remote controlled by computer. Any setting on the 01v96 can be operated via the hardware itself or via the computer. ALL settings, such as eq, dynamics, etc, and in fact entire snapshots of the entire board including fader positions, can also be saved to the computer for later re-call.
In case any non-01v96 users are wondering what the heck we are talking about. Don't fill in the Tx and RX ports, or the DAW or remote ports unless you are using the mixer as a control surface or with a supported DAW such as Nuendo or Pro-Tools, etc. You can ignore everything else on the DIO MIDI/Host page unless you also want to Use Metacorder's MMC. If you do, set the MMC to USB MIDI port 1, ID 1. On the hardware mixer itself, open DIO. Ignore Target device. Leave the entire DIO MIDI Setup page at it's default settings. Go to the DIO MIDI/HOST page. Go to "Studio Manager and for port, select "USB", "2". If you are having difficulties with the above step, go to SM2, open the "file" menu, and select "Re-map MIDI ports". Then try the above step again. device ID can be 1. Select yes for every other selection box on the page. Open Studio manager, open the 01v96 Editor inside of studio manager. Open "file-SYSTEM setup inside of the Editor's window, not SM's window. At the top of the new System Setup window that will open, Select midi port 2 for both the input and output ports. This is a critical step that is often the missed one that will prevent you from connecting SM2 to your hardware:

To re-install all of the software you mentioned above, one only needs to install the latest version over top. Under OSX's Audio MIDI Setup, does the 01v96 show up under MIDI Devices, and if so is it greyed out or functional?
#Yamaha studio manager crashing driver#
Go to OSX's system preferences, ensure that the Yamaha USB MIDI driver shows up at the bottom under "Other". Do any device names show up?  Start with a hardware re-set of your board to undo any improper setting that may have been selected during your efforts to solve this problem. (Power up while holding down the Scene Memory Store button).
