At the heart of the MusiCAST2 system is the Network Music Commander. Its full-color display and touch-pad controller make it simple to select a room and control the music playing throughout your entire home. The completely new Yamaha MusicCAST2 system provides you with the simplest way to enjoy all your music, all your sources, in all your rooms, wirelessly! Just connect MusicCAST2 to your wireless home network and you will be able to enjoy music in any room of your home, at any time. And with over 10,000 Internet radio stations worldwide and Rhapsody Music service, MusicCAST2 provides full access to all music content available online as well as music content stored on your computer and USB flash drives.
Convenient Fingertip Control of Your Music in Every Room
MusicCAST2 is a convenient, flexible, expandable way to stream music wirelessly to every room of your house. You can connect your PC to listen to music files, Internet Radio and the Rhapsody music service, and get the convenience of iPod docking, a USB port and Bluetooth compatibility. It also becomes a wireless network system that lets you use DLNA (Digital Living Network Alliance) plus NAS (Network-Attached Storage) devices via WiFi. MusicCAST2 supports up to 32 Network Music Players throughout the home, as well as 16 PCs, and lets you enjoy various play modes such as Party Mode and Sleep Timer. The pocket-size Network Music Commander with full-color display is portable and convenient. It controls the Network Music Players and can also be used as a remote control to operate many functions of Yamaha Network Receivers like the
RX-Z7 and
RX-V3900. By using the MCX-P200's IR outputs with optional IR flashers, you can control other AV components (TV, set-top box, DVD and Blu-ray Disc players, video recorder, etc.) with the Commander unit.
Easy to Carry Around, Easy to Use
The Network Music Commander gives you full control over your MusicCAST2 system. Compact and lightweight at 5.9" x 3.5" and 6.1 oz, you can carry it with you from room to room operating all of the Network Music Players, or just make the settings you want and leave it in its cradle (which is supplied at no extra cost). The full-color LCD screen has a touch pad that makes it easy to control operations and browse selections.
Simple GUI Control Makes the Commander Enjoyable to Use
The Graphic User Interface is extremely easy to use, and a backlight ensures good visibility. You can browse all the music content on your PC and quickly check playlists and make selections from other network components including iPod and Bluetooth-enabled mobile phones and PDAs, as well as USB devices. A soft keyboard on the display lets you name each location where there is a Network Music Player. A Party Mode makes it easy to hear the same source in three different rooms, and the Sleep Timer lets you drift off to sleep with music.
Network Music Commander Controls Yamaha Network Receivers
When MusicCAST2 is part of a home network having a Yamaha Network Receiver such as the RX-Z7 or RX-V3900, the Commander functions as a sophisticated remote control unit. You can use it to operate various functions of the receiver and other components, and even select and control components in all Zones.
