HARDWARE INSTALLATION
38
The web app is a web application served by the
hardware. All you need to run it is a web browser
running on a device that has a connection to your
audio interface through Thunderbolt, USB or a
shared network.
Figure 4-1: The web app is served from the hardware, and accessed
through any web browser on any device connected to the interface.
Web app control can be set up independently
of audio connections
The connections in this section, especially the
network scenarios, can be set up independently of
Thunderbolt, USB or AVB networking connections
you make for audio routing (as shown in the setup
diagrams earlier in this chapter). In addition,
connections for web app control can be made over
standard Ethernet and do not require AVB
Ethernet connections. Think of web app control as
being separate from audio. Doing so opens up a lot
of possibilities for control of the M64, independent
of the connections you make for audio.
Mixing and matching web app control
scenarios
The web app connection scenarios shown in the
following sections are not exclusive from one
another. You can set up as many web app
connections as you wish and control your MOTU
device from many web app hosts simultaneously.
Launching the web app
Once you’ve made any of the connections shown in
the following sections, launch the web app as
explained in “Make hardware and network
connections” on page 11.
Web app control over USB
If the M64 is connected through USB to a computer
with internet access (as shown on page 33), you
can access the web app from the computer, or any
other device on the network. In this case, make
sure you’ve run the software installer (page 29),
which installs drivers that allow your computer to
properly communicate with the device.
Web app control through standard Ethernet
The M64 can also be controlled by the web app
running on any device that has a standard Ethernet
connection to the interface, either directly with a
network cable, through an Ethernet hub, or
through Wi-Fi on your local network. The sections
on the opposite page show you how to set up each
of these connection scenarios.
