I used to be an 01x user and loved it... I am sure that the 01x is no longer supported by Yamaha thus you will not have drivers for Windows 7 and above... I had to do some major tweaks to get my 01x working with Windows 7 but I did get it to work flawlessly. I  know I found the information online to help do this. I may have files on my computer and documentation to help with this if your interested? Ill have to check when I get home from work... Let me know, ok? Might want to consider upgrading technology soon... 01x was heaven for me but so out dated since Yamaha dropped driver support...

Thanks to both of you for bringing up this product. I did not know it existed. I work with a Yamaha 01V digital mixer and I have got it well configured for use with my DAW. While I am very happy with this the 01X looks like it is even more interesting and a stronger lead to DAW and controller usage.

From what I can see with some initial investigation is that the software is up to Win 7 and the drivers may be on XP but you will probably find they work fine under Win 7 or Win 8. It will be worth checking out. If I find anything further I will post.

as Mark from DSProductionz i used the o1x for a long time and i loved to work with it, too. It was (!) a great idea getting everything in one box and in the combination with the i88x it was a nice piece of gear. But i sold it after yamaha stopped to support it. Here might be a helpful advice for those who want to stick with that "old lady" : http://www.cubase.net/php...86358c4efd51f57f8e1c0e ....and yes, i'm using firefox right now, sorry for not showing up a direct link.

I would be very interested in seeing an 01x working with win 7 or win 8 64 bit.

I understood this to be impossible (32 bit is possible) having tried for too long than i care to mention.

There is a way of disabling driver signing from menus in windows 8 which was way more complicated in windows 7 and where most of the troubles lied. I havent tried it windows 8. 

So anyone have 01x working in 64 bit 7/8 i would very much appreciate a pm or feedback as to how this was done.  I just use mine as a digital mixer these days.

The 01x was  mega. Midi/Audio in and out of daw and mix 16 DAW channels  and 8 hardware channels (24 in total) with the 01x effects etc and.... motorised faders! - what more do you want?

Seen an 01x go for 45 quid on ebay which is insane value. The digital mixer in itself is fairly decent .

The OP is using 32 bit so should have no problem.

I can confirm that I had no problems "until" Win7 32 bit (very rare minor problems).
WDM (if I remember) was not working so well .... but it was not so important.

I sold my units (01x and i88x) about 1 year ago .... and now I am using a Midas Venice F .....

Never tried 64bit with mLan .... (I read many problems from many users).

Hi folks, I'm new to the forum and joined when I saw this thread.
I have a recording studio that is based around two 01Xs and can record 16 channels of pristine 48Khz/24bit audio simultaneously via mLAN into X2 using XP32bit.
I am currently experimenting with a Windows 7 32bit system and have installed the mLAN drivers (V1.63) and in test mode have set the firewire driver to legacy mode. I have read that it is best to get the firewire onto it's own IRQ to avoid glitches in the audio - which I am looking at today. I have all the input channels available in the DAW and can record on them all, but in playback there is some distortion in short bursts. If I can cure this I'll switch to Win 7.
Please PM me for the details of linking them and the turn-on procedure for recording/rehearsal etc - I won't take up the space if no-one wants it.
