This is the process I follow to sync the ls9 or m7 cl to computer. I accept no responsibility if you wipe the memory on your
console by not being cautios. Also there is great tech support from
yamaha
The LS9 connectivity is done
thru Ethernet. MID is to control external changes on other
outboard equipment. The USB is for Thumb drive style storage for Recording/ Playback of
MP3. Also for a "security key " type of feature.
TO Connect to computer install latest firmware on
console. (Be sure to back up
console on USB Drive first.) Then Update to all recent drivers and Studio Manager, including update for LS9
console.
In your Lan connection properties choose IPV4 and choose properties.
Choose Use the following IP
address. Enter in 192.168.0.12x. the x is any number than what the LS9n is not. You can see ls9 IP
address under settings tabs.
Then goto DME
Network driver program.
Click Advanced

Enter Detect f IP That is just under

Enter detect to IP That is just over
