for the analog input jack 1. When directly connecting an electric guitar or electric bass that
has passive pickups and no built-in preamp to
the analog input jack 1, turn the [HI-Z] button
on.
NOTE

• Use an unbalanced phone cable when you connect
an electric guitar or electric bass and turn the [HI-Z]
button on. If you use a balanced cable or an XLR
cable in such a case, this device will not work correctly.
• If no device is connected to analog input jack 1, turn

AI KNOB section

2 [MONO] button
This button allows analog input jacks 1 and 2 to
be used either as separate mono channels or as
a stereo pair. When the button is on (O), analog
input jacks 1 and 2 function as independent
mono channels feeding both the L and R LINE
OUT jacks. It is used to monitor the sound of
the microphone or guitar connected to the analog input jack 1 in the center of the monitor
speakers. When the button is off (N), analog input jack 1 and 2 function as a stereo pair: the
analog input jack 1 signal feeds the L LINE
OUT jack and the analog input jack 2 signal
feeds the R LINE OUT jack. Switching this button on/off does not affect the signal sent to the
computer.

The Controls and Connectors

3 INPUT 1/2 GAIN controls/PEAK
Indicator
English

Adjusts the input signal level. The signal that
has passed through the GAIN control will be
sent to the computer. To achieve the best balance of the recording level between S/N ratio
and dynamic range, adjust the level so that the
PEAK Indicator lights only occasionally and
briefly on the highest input transients.

4 [PHANTOM INPUT 1&2] button/
Indicator
This button switches the phantom power
(+48V) on (O)/off (N). If you turn the button
on, the CI2+ supplies phantom power to the analog input jack 1 and 2 (XLR-type). The indicator lights when the button is turned on. Turn this
button on when using a phantom-powered condenser microphone.
CAUTION
• Make sure that phantom power is turned OFF unless it is needed.
• When turning phantom power ON, make sure that
no equipment other than phantom-powered devices such as condenser microphones are connected. Devices other than condenser
microphones may be damaged if connected to the
phantom power supply. Note, however, that the
switch may be left on when connecting to balanced
dynamic microphones. When connecting an unbalanced device to the analog input jacks (1/4" phone
type) and phantom power is turned on, hum or
noise may result; this is not a malfunction or failure in the device.
• Do not connect or disconnect a device while phantom power is applied. Doing so can damage the
connected device and/or the unit itself.
• To protect your speaker system, leave the monitor
speakers (powered speakers) turned off when
switching the phantom power on/off. It’s also a
good idea turn all master control and output volume controls down to minimum. Neglect of these
precautions may result in large noise bursts that
may damage your equipment, your ears, or both.

5 MASTER control
Adjusts the signal level sent to the LINE OUT
jacks. This allows you to adjust the overall volume without changing the relative volume balance among the channels. This control does not
affect the signal sent to the computer.

CI2+ Operation Manual

6 PHONES control
Adjusts the signal level sent to the PHONES
jack, since this output signal is not affected by
the MASTER control.

7 MIX control (INPUT—DAW)
Adjusts the signal level balance between the
signal from the analog input jacks and the signal from an application software, such as DAW.
This control does not affect the signal sent to
the computer.

components: Yamaha Steinberg USB Driver and
Steinberg CI2 Extension. Yamaha Steinberg
USB Driver enables communication between
the CI2+ and your computer. Using Steinberg
CI2 Extension, you can link the CI2+ with a
Cubase version which supports the Link
functions between both of them (page 11). The
TOOLS for CI2 Installer installs these two
software components. Follow the instructions

Setting the audio driver buffer size

Noise produced when using audio applications
such as DAW software may affect audio recording and/or playback. In most cases, you
can solve these problems by adjusting the audio driver buffer size (the size of memory used
to temporarily hold data to avoid intermittent
playback). The buffer size can usually be adjusted via the audio driver setup window in the
application. (When using ASIO compatible software for Windows, the buffer size can be adjusted in the ASIO Buffer Size parameter via
the Control Panel of the Yamaha Steinberg
USB Driver.) While the higher buffer size reduces load to the computer CPU but produces
latency (time lag) during recording/playback,
the smaller buffer size may result in noise or
the sound cutting off. Make sure to set the buffer size to an appropriate value depending on
the performance of your computer, the number
of audio/MIDI tracks being recorded/played
back on the DAW software, the number of
plug-in software, and so on.

CI2+ Operation Manual

Troubleshooting

The power of the device does not turn on.
• Make sure that the CI2+ is properly connected to the computer via a USB cable.
The USB bus-power is necessary to use the CI2+.

• Confirm whether or not a proper USB cable is used.
If the USB cable is broken or damaged, have the
USB cable replaced with a known working one.
Use a USB cable no longer than 1.5 meters.

• Connect the CI2+ to a computer without a
USB hub.

English

Troubleshooting
Noise occurs, or the sound is
intermittent or distorted.
• Is the PEAK indicator flashing red?
You might have to lower GAIN control level to
avoid distortion.

• Does your computer satisfy the system
requirements?
Refer to “System Requirements” on page 8.

• Is the buffer size setting of the Yamaha
Steinberg USB Driver set properly?
Refer to the “Setting the audio driver buffer size”
on page 21.

No sound.
• Make sure that the MASTER/PHONES/
MIX controls are set properly.
• Are your speaker cables connected properly?
Refer to “Connection Examples” on page 18.

• Are your speaker cables shorted?
• Are the volume controls of your sources,
audio devices, applications software,
computer operating system, etc., set at
appropriate levels?
• (Windows only) Is the output of your computer operating system muted?
• Do you have several applications running
at the same time?
Be sure to quit all applications you are not using.

• Is the “ASIO Driver” setting on Cubase set
properly?

• Are any other applications, device drivers,
or USB devices (scanners, printers, etc.)
running at the same time?
Be sure to quit all applications you are not using.

• Are you playing back a large number of
audio tracks?
The number of tracks you can play at the same
time will depend on the performance of the computer you are using. You may experience intermittent playback if you exceed your computer's
capabilities.

• Are you recording or playing long continuous sections of audio?
The audio data processing capabilities of your
computer will depend on a number of factors including CPU speed and access to external devices.

• Is the network adaptor running?
Disable the suspected network adaptor. Some
network adaptors can cause noise.

Make sure that the “Yamaha Steinberg USB
ASIO (Windows)” or “Steinberg CI2+ (Mac)” is
selected on the “ASIO Driver” in the “VST Audio
System” window (called up via [Device Setup…]
under the [Devices] menu).

Troubleshooting

Cubase does not recognize the CI2+.
English

• Make sure that the CI2+ is properly connected to the computer via a USB cable.
• Confirm whether or not a proper USB cable is used.
If the USB cable is broken or damaged, have the
USB cable replaced with a known working one.
Use a USB cable no longer than 1.5 meters.

• Confirm whether or not the CI2+ is connected to the computer before starting
Cubase.
• Confirm whether or not the “Yamaha
Steinberg USB Driver” and “Steinberg CI2
Extension” have been installed.
If not, install them.

• Confirm whether or not a version of
Cubase that is compatible with operation
with the CI2+ (page 11) has already been
installed.
• Make sure that CI2+ is selected as the
port setting on Cubase.
The port is described in the Device Setup window
(called up via [Device Setup...] under the [Devices]
menu) when selecting “Steinberg CI2+” under
“Remote Devices” in the Devices box.

• Make sure that there is no check mark in
“In ‘All MIDI Inputs’” for CI2+ MIDI port on
the “MIDI Port Setup” window (called up
via [Device Setup…] under the [Devices]
menu.)
• Are you connecting the Steinberg CC121
and the CI2+ simultaneously with one
computer?
If you are connecting the Steinberg CC121 and
the CI2+ simultaneously with one computer, the
AI KNOB and [LOCK] button on the CI2+ cannot
be used.
