Port-to-port function
The port-to-port function enables direct patching
between input ports and output ports. With this function,
the QL analog inputs and outputs can be directly routed
to/from external Dante devices without passing through
the mixing channels. If both a monitor console and I/O
device are required on the side of a stage, a single QL
series console can achieve both functions, reducing the
necessary equipment. In addition, by setting the QL
series as a remote I/O device as well as a monitor
console, the FOH console can share and remotely
control the head amps.
Digital input/output connections
Use the DIGITAL OUT jack to send the QL’s internal
signals to an external digital audio device. When the QL
is in the default state, the output signal of the STEREO
channel is patched to the DIGITAL OUT jack, which
enables you to record the main mix onto a CD recorder
or other device.
You can connect this jack to the AES/EBU jack on an I/O
device, such as Rio3224-D. Also, by installing separately
sold mini-YGDAI I/O cards in slots 1–2, you can add
input/output jacks to the QL or connect speaker
processor units.
Installing an optional card
Before you install I/O cards in slots 1–2, you must check
the Yamaha website to determine whether the card is
compatible with the QL series, and to verify the total
number of Yamaha or third-party cards that can be
installed in combination with that card.

Follow the steps below to install an optional mini-YGDAI
card.
1. Make sure that the power is turned off.
Caution
Before connecting a separately sold mini-YGDAI I/O
card to the QL, make sure to turn off the power switch
of the console’s power supply. Otherwise,
malfunctions or electric shock may occur.
2. Loosen the screws that fasten the slot, and
remove the slot cover.
Keep the cover and fixing screws in a safe place for
future use.
3. Align both edges of the card with the guide rails
inside the slot, and insert the card into the slot.
Push the card all the way into the slot so that the
connector at the end of the card is correctly
inserted into the connector inside the slot.
NOTE
When installing a card, carefully align both edges of the
card with the guide rails in the slot of the device.
4. Fasten the card using the screws attached to the
card.
Be aware that damage or malfunctions may occur
if the card is not fastened.
