5 DYNAMICS
Two dynamics processor modules are provided: Dynamics 1 and Dynamics 2. To each module
you can assign one of six types of function such as GATE or COMP. Two types of compressor are
provided: LEGACY COMP and COMP 260. Two sets of dynamics parameter settings (A and B)
can be saved for convenient comparison.
The available dynamics types include:
LEGACY COMP This is the standard compressor that has been provided on Yamaha
digital mixers since the PM1D and PM5D.
COMP 260 This is an analog-flavored compressor built using Yamaha's proprietary
VCM (Virtual Circuitry Modeling) technology. It emulates the
characteristics of compressors and limiters of the mid-1970s, which are
now a standard for live sound reinforcement. This compressor has
faithfully modeled the VCA (Voltage Controlled Amplifier) circuit and the
RMS (Root Mean Square) detection circuit. Compression curve (Knee)
can be set to Hard, Medium, or Soft. Although the attack/release times
can also be adjusted, the preset settings reproduce the fixed response of
the original unit being modeled. Designed under the supervision of top SR
engineers, the parameter effects have been optimized for live sound
reinforcement.
GATE This dynamics type reduces the output by a fixed value (RANGE) when a
signal smaller than the THRESHOLD level is input.
DE-ESSER This dynamics type detects only the sibilants and other high-frequency
consonants of the vocal, and compresses its bandwidth.
EXPANDER This dynamics type reduces the output by a fixed ratio (RATIO) when a
signal smaller than the THRESHOLD level is input.
DUCKING This dynamics type reduces the output by a fixed value (RANGE) when a
signal greater than the THRESHOLD level is input. This is effective if you
want to lower the volume level of background music using the KEY IN
SOURCE signal.
• KEY IN SOURCE
Selects the source of the key-in signal.
In addition to SELF, the key-in signal can also be selected directly from another channel or
input patch.

INSERT
Two inserts are provided: Insert 1 and Insert 2. In each insert, you can insert up to four plug-ins/
GEQ/PEQ/external devices (via the I/O jacks). Each insert point can be selected independently
for INSERT 1 and INSERT 2.
7 DELAY
Up to 1000 msec of delay is provided on each channel. You can freely select the delay insert
point. You can select the delay time unit from the following: meter, feet, sample, msec, frame,
depending on your application.

• DIRECT OUT POINT
For each channel, a variety of points can be selected as the signal that is output to direct out.
• DIRECT OUT LEVEL
For each channel, sets the output level of direct out.

INPUT TO MIX/INPUT TO MATIRX
A signal can be sent from the input channel to MIX buses 1 – 72. In addition to the conventional
MIX sends, there are also direct sends to MATRIX buses 1 – 36, so by using these together you
can use them as up to 108 mix buses.
