Also Worthy Of Note …
We could go on and on, but here are just a few more features you might find useful.
Libraries
Setting up the entire PM5D system from scratch can be a formidable task, so Yamaha has
provided an extensive selection of presets in a range of libraries that can simply be selected and
used as they are or modified to suit specific requirements. Of course, your own setups can be
added to the libraries for instant recall whenever they are needed. Here’s a list of the available
libraries:
Graphic Equalizers
The PM5D provides twelve 31-band graphic equalizers for output processing. The graphic
equalizers are ideal for use whether you need a subtle overall response adjustment or a more
dramatic boost or cut in a limited frequency range. Each equalizer also features a spectrum
analyzer display. For easy setup the console’s DCA faders can be assigned to directly adjust the
GEQ bands in 8-band groups via the FADER MODE keys.
Internal Effect Processors
PM5D is equipped with eight independent SPX2000-class multi- effect processors that can be
patched into any of the console’s input, stereo, mix, or matrix channels, offering a
comprehensive range of reverb, delay, modulation, and combination effects.
The PM5D is also ready to use Yamaha’s incomparable Add- on Effects that were first
introduced for DM2000 and 02R96 digital mixers … in fact, the REV- X Reverb is included in
the PM5D by default. You can use other popular programs like Compressor276,
Compressor260, EQ601 and Open Deck by purchasing the Channel Strip and Master Strip
packages.
HA REMOTE Control Output
This connector provides control signals for remote
control of an external microphone preamplifier such as
the Yamaha AD8HR 8-channel A/D microphone
preamplifier.
The AD8HR’s mic preamp gain can be remotely
controlled in steps of 1dB directly from the PM5D.
There’s also a high pass filter and phantom power supply
integrated into each channel that can be turned on and
off by remote control. The filter’s cut-off frequency is also
remotely adjustable.
This Head Amp Remote Control function makes it
possible for the AD8HR to be used as a stage box. In
addition to the many advantages that this offers, digital
connection of the AD8HR and PM5D using an AES/EBU
cable reduces analog wiring requirements to the bare
minimum.
Operation Lock
The Operation Lock function prevents accidental or
inadvertent operation by requiring a password for access.
Internal Oscillator
The internal oscillator provides 100Hz, 1kHz, and 10kHz
sine-wave signals as well as pink and burst noise. Sine
waves of different frequencies can be sent to the left and
right channels for effective setup checks.
GPI Interface
A 4-input 12-output General Purpose Interface is
provided on PM5D to provide control interoperability
with a wide range of sound and studio equipment – fader
start and talk back on/off are just two examples. The
USER ASSIGNABLE KEYS can be assigned to trigger
appropriate output signals, and continuous input
capability allows the PM5D to be controlled by external
equipment.
MS Decoding
Built-in MS decoding eliminates the need for external
matrix transformers for MS microphones when working
with MS-encoded source material.
Mix Minus
Mix Minus makes it possible to instantly remove a
specified channel from the mix – a common example
from the broadcast field would be removing an
announcer from a mix.
Vertical Pairing
In addition to standard odd-even channel pairing, the
PM5D allows “vertical pairing” in which adjacent
channels on different layers can be operated in tandem –
channels 1 and 25, for example.
Word Clock
The PM5D can be used as either word clock master or
slave to allow effective integration with any type of digital
audio system up to 96-kHz.
MIDI Remote
The PM5D features MIDI IN, OUT and THRU connectors
that can be connected to external MIDI equipment to
allow transmission and reception of MIDI control signals.
