Adjusting The Faders And Input/Output Gain (Calibration); Calibrating The Faders - Yamaha DSP5D Owner's Manual

Adjusting the faders and input/output gain (Calibration)

Depending on the conditions of use, discrepancies may occur in the behavior of the motor faders. you can use the Calibration
function to correct such discrepancies. If necessary, you can also make fine adjustments to the analog input/output gain.
1 While holding down the [ENTER] key of the
panel, turn on the power of the PW800W
power supply.
After the opening screen, the following calibration
menu screen will appear.
2 Click one of the following buttons to choose
what you want to calibrate.
A window for the calibration item you selected will
appear.
The FADER CALIBRATION win-

3 Make calibration settings as directed by the
instructions that appear in the window.
4 Click the OK button in the window.
The calibration settings will be applied, and the PM5D
will start up in normal mode.

Calibrating the faders

Here you can execute a semi-automatic procedure for cali-
brating the faders of the specified channel strip (INPUT,
DCA, STEREO A/B, ST IN/FX RTN). This window will
also appear if a problem with the fader settings is detected
when the PM5D is started up.
1 Click a fader select button to add a check mark
to the faders you want to calibrate.
If problems with certain faders were detected during
start-up, those buttons will be on (green), and check
marks will already be shown for them.
2 Click the START CALIBRATION button; calibra-
tion will begin automatically.
A progress bar will indicate the state of the process.
3 The automatic processing will end when the
progress bar reaches 60%. Manually move all
faders you specified for calibration to the posi-
tions listed below in the following order:
1 –∞
2 –20 dB
3 0 dB
4 +10 dB
4 After you have set the faders to the correct
position, press the [ENTER] key.
Processing will proceed to the next fader position.
5 Repeat steps 3–4 for each fader position
6 Verify that calibration has been completed and
that all fader select buttons are now off. Then
click the OK button.
The calibration settings will be stored in internal mem-
ory. If a fader select button remains on (green),
calibration has failed. Try executing calibration once
again.
Note
The progress bar will indicate "Writing..." while the settings are
being written to internal memory; do not turn off the power
while this indication is visible.
