AirFader connects to Yamaha 01V96-series consoles using the USB port. All you need to do is install the drivers.
The Yamaha 01V96-series of consoles do not have a network port, so you must use USB to connect to the console. This is where AirFader's client/server mode is very useful. You can connect AirFader for Windows to the 01V96 via USB, and connect a WiFi router to the AirFader machine. Then you can use AirFader for Android/iPad to mix wirelessly via WiFi.
BOTH versions of AirFader for Windows support the use of Android/iPad devices. The "Standard" version is limited to one user at a time, while the "Server" version allows multiple users at once.

First, check the MIDI settings on the 01V96 console:
- Press DIO/SETUP
- Select the MIDI/HOST tab
