How to Set Up MyRemote with eMotion LV1 Classic Console

Oct 01, 2024

Learn how to set up Waves MyRemote applications (MyMon, MyFOH, mRecall & MixTwin) on iOS and Android devices and synchronize them with the eMotion LV1 Classic console.

For more information about each app, please refer to the MyMon, MyFOH, mRecall or MixTwin user guides.

Setting Up

On the eMotion LV1 Classic:

By default, the network port of the eMotion LV1 Classic is set to obtain an IP address automatically. If your router DHCP server is enabled, no further configuration is needed in the mixer’s network settings.
Run a dedicated Ethernet cable from the eMotion LV1 Classic’s network port (not the SoundGrid switch) to the Wi-Fi router. This connection provides control information for the mobile apps Wi-Fi network. No audio passes over it. Do not run the mobile apps network over the SoundGrid network. It is possible to place the Wi-Fi router at the FOH position, but we recommend that you place it near the mobile clients.
In eMotion LV1, go to Setup > System Inventory Page > Controls column.
Click on an empty Control slot. Select MyRemote from the menu. The MyRemote icon will appear in the slot. You can open the MyRemote control panel by clicking on the Gear button. A single MyRemote Control module provides communication between the host and all three mobile apps at the same time.

Mobile Apps Network Setup

Install your app of choice (MyMon, MyFOH, mRecall, MixTwin) using:
- Android phone/tablet users: Google Play
- iPhone/iOS tablet users: App Store
Set the Wi-Fi name and password protect your Wi-Fi network. Share your Wi-Fi network name and password with all mobile clients. All users can now connect to the mobile apps Wi-Fi network in their mobile devices and then start the app.
The app will find the Host computer. Select the found host and click Connect.
The MyRemote control panel in the host displays the name of the newly connected mobile device and the app used to connect to the mobile apps network.

Notes & requirements:

We recommend using a Wi-Fi 5 5Ghz Wi-Fi router, connected via ethernet to the eMotion LV1 Classic’s network port.
Lower bandwidth will introduce graphic lags. Make sure to use a Wireless router (such as WRC-1 V2 WiFi Stage Router) and not a Wireless Access Point or Extender which do not provide automatic assignment of IP addresses.
Minimum operating system requirements for MyMon, MyFOH & MRecall:
- Android 8 or higher
- iOS 12 or higher
MixTwin minimum operating system: iPad OS 14. Not supported on Android tablets.
The MyRemote network must be a dedicated, stand-alone WIFI network, separate from the SoundGrid network.
To ensure a stable Wi-Fi connection:
- The router should be placed near the top of the rack and away from any other gear that may use radio waves in the same 2.4 GHz or 5 GHz range.
- Note that rack-mount computers or laptops placed directly above routers may cause wireless interference.
- Antennas should never be covered in the rack while in operation.
- Avoid interference from other electronic devices. Interference may be caused by nearby appliances such as two-way radios, copy machines, printers, microwave ovens, and refrigerators.
- Minimize obstacles, especially large steel or metal objects, between your router and wireless-connected devices.
