M7CL related hardware

M7CL-48 and M7CL-32 are "all in one box" digital mixers that require no setup and no additional units before use.
They differ only in the number of available inputs. M7CL-48ES requires connection to external HA (Head Amps)
before use and we recommend SB168-ES, but other EtherSound compatible HA are also possible like Yamaha AD8HR
connected to NAI48-ES EtherSound interface. The basic setup of M7CL-48ES with SB168-ES is extremely straightfor-
ward and is dealt with on page 5. When setup, M7CL-48ES behaves just like an M7CL-48, with only few differences.
This guide will use M7CL-48 as its example and only refer to the other versions where the differences are relevant.
And don't forget the PC software; Studio Manager and M7CL Editor.
SB168-ES
SB168-ES is a dedicated EtherSound remote mic preamp and
AD convertor ideal for use with M7CL48-ES consoles. The
preamp design and sound is very similar to the M7CL inter-
nal preamps.
It can be connected directly to M7CL-48ES with Cat5e. If
the front panel dipswitches are set correctly the combina-
tion of M7CL-48ES and multiple SB168-ES will auto confi gure
themselves to provide extra remote mic preamps patched
to and controlled by the 48 channels in the console. There
is no need for AVS ES Monitor, the PC based patching pro-

USB memory
Tip; When choosing a storage device remember that; M7CL is USB1.1 compliant, so both USB1.1 and USB2.0 Tip;
will work. Storage capacity must not exceed 16 GB. The drive can be formatted to FAT12 FAT16 or FAT32 but
must not be partitioned. You can format a new drive in M7CL, but remember formatting a drive erases all its
memories. Most USB memory devices work, but Yamaha have a list of tested ones on www.yamahapropaudio.com

MY (Mini-
YGDAI) cards
PW800W is an optional external
redundant power supply.
MBM7CL is the meterbridge part.
Although an optional extra, most
consoles are supplied with this.
LA1L is Yamaha's LED gooseneck
lamp. LED lamps have a long
reliable bulb life and white light.
USB memory devices are used to
transfer or "back-up" data on the
M7CL. Yamaha do not manufacture
these, but they are widely avail-
able from many manufacturers and
computer stores.
M7CL is compatible with most
MY16/8/4 series cards. MY cards
offer alternative format input
and extra alternative outputs.
Add MY cards if you want more
than 16 outputs or for multi-
track recording.
