4 Click the grid where the desired patch-source
and patch-destination intersect.
The vertical and horizontal red lines indicate the grid
position where the cursor is located. The SELECTED
PATCH area in the upper left of the screen shows the

When you click a grid, a window will ask you to con-
firm that you want to change the patch setting.

Changing the output patch settings

In the output patch section you can assign output chan-
nels to output ports. The PM5D's output channels are
always connected to the following output jacks.
MIX channels 1–24 MIX OUT jacks 1–24
STEREO A/B channels STEREO OUT jacks A/B
MATRIX channels 1–8 MATRIX OUT jacks 1–8
Monitor output L/C/R MONITOR OUT jacks L/R/C
However you can edit the output patch settings so that the
signals of these output channels are also sent from other
output ports in parallel. Here's how to do this.
1 In the DISPLAY ACCESS section, press the
OUTPUT [PATCH] key several times to access
the OUTPUT PATCH screen.
OUTPUT PATCH
In the OUTPUT PATCH screen you can patch (assign)
output channels to output ports. The horizontal direc-
tion of the screen shows the output ports (i.e., patch
destinations), and the vertical direction of the screen
shows the output channels (i.e., patch sources).
When the PM5D is in its default state, MIX channels
1–24, MATRIX channels 1–8, and the STEREO A
channel are patched to the output channels of slots 1–4
and the 2TR OUT DIGITAL jacks in addition to the
output jacks that are always connected. However, you
are free to change this patching.

The new patch will be finalized, and a " " symbol will
appear at the corresponding grid.
To cancel the patch, click the " " symbol once again.
Hint
• If you want to change the patch directly without having to
respond to the confirmation window, go to the UTILITY func-
tion PREFERENCE 1 screen and turn PATCH
CONFIRMATION off ( ➥ p.186).
• To move the cursor location rapidly in or out of the grid, hold
down the [SHIFT] key and press the CURSOR [ √ ]/[ ® ]/[ π ]/
[ † ] keys.
Note
You can patch a single input port to multiple input channels,
but you cannot patch multiple input ports to a single input
channel.

patch-destination output port.
The horizontal direction of the screen shows the patch
destination's output port type, ID number, port num-
ber, and the number of output channels that are
assigned to it.
From the top, this area shows the output
port type, ID number, port number, and
number of assigned output channels.
To patch an output port to an output
