Via the free MAILA app (iPadOS), every MAILA system can be customised and supplied with software updates wirelessly. Once connected, the app automatically recognises the existing MAILA components and enables the system to be set up optimally in the run-up to an event. When developing the MAILA app, a great focus was put on the intuitive user experience. Every function of the app makes handling the MAILA system noticeably easier. Plan your system in any place With the MAILA app, you can easily assemble and set up your MAILA system in the run-up to an event. Drag and drop the required modules into the virtual stage area grid, adjust EQ, level and more to the location and save your configuration for later - done! All functions in real-time access The MAILA app mirrors all speaker DSP functions in real time, so you can configure MAILA anywhere - even when the system is flown and hard to reach. To protect your setup from unauthorised access, you can also lock the MAILA system via the app. Perfect sound with few parameters How many satellites does your MAILA system have? At what height are they located? How far in the room does the audience stand? The MAILA room simulation calculates the required angles of the SAT modules and automatically adjusts the EQs of the individual systems to optimally cover your audience with sound. It couldn't be simpler. All frequencies under control With the MAILA app's 10-band EQ, you can adjust the overall sound of any MAILA system to suit your needs. Each individual band offers full parametrics with frequency, Q-factor and gain. You always have direct access to the most important settings via storable presets. Delay Lines If you are working with delay lines in larger rooms, you only need to enter the distance to the main PA and the room temperature in the MAILA app. The MAILA APP calculates the delay time and makes all necessary DSP settings automatically. LogoLink® The specially developed LogoLink® technology ensures the wireless connection between the MAILA system and the MAILA app. The highlight: the wireless antennas are invisibly integrated into the LD logo of the MAILA modules. Autoconnect & Sync In response to your feedback, we've added an Autoconnect & Sync feature. When the app has detected devices, you will now be prompted, 'Would you like to auto connect online devices with your stage devices?'. Choose between NO, YES, or SYNC to auto connect and synchronize devices to your saved stage settings. Gone are the days of manually connecting and synchronizing each device to the stage settings - you can now reconnect your devices automatically, saving you time and effort. Import & Share Stages Sharing your stage setup has never been easier. Simply tap on the 'Import/Export Stage' button and you will be prompted, 'Do you want to import a stage configuration or share the current stage?'. Choose 'Import Stage' to bring in a stage setup, or 'Export stage' to save and share your current setup. About MAILA MAILA (Modular All-Round Intelligent Line-Array) is not just "a" product, but a scalable sound reinforcement system that sets new standards in its diversity and flexibility. From a wedding reception to a conference to a festival - MAILA combines the best concepts in sound reinforcement technology in one system.

DM StageMix is an application for the Apple iPad that provides remote control of Yamaha DM7/DM5 series digital mixing system functions via a simple, intuitive graphical interface from anywhere within wireless range. The software has been specifically designed to allow engineers to adjust monitor mixes from the performers’ positions on stage, directly controlling mix parameters via the iPad rather than having to rely on verbal directions to a second engineer. The result is better mixes in less time; a huge advantage during high-pressure pre-show setup. Although StageMix is focused on the requirements for adjusting monitor mixes on stage, its range of features is continually expanding, allowing it to be used for a wider variety of remote control functions.
