Selecting Channels Selecting Channels To select Input and Output Channels for editing with the SELECTED CHANNEL controls, you use the LAYER buttons to select a Layer, and the [SEL] buttons to select a channel on that Layer. Select a Layer, as explained on page 42. Use the [SEL] buttons to select an Input or Output Channel.
Chapter 3—Operating Basics Auto Channel Select & Touch Sense Select While the Auto Channel Select preference is on (see page 235), channels can be selected by moving the corresponding fader or Encoder, or by turning on the corresponding [AUTO], [SOLO], or [ON] button. While the Touch Sense Select preference is on (see page 237), channels can be selected sim- ply by touching the fader knobs.
Selecting Encoder Modes Selecting Encoder Modes The exact function of each Encoder depends on the selected Layer and Encoder mode. There are two preset Encoder modes, Pan and Aux/Mtrx, and four assign- able modes, for which you can choose from over 40 parameters. Select a Layer, as explained in page 42.

Chapter 5—Digital I/O & Cascading 5 Digital I/O & Cascading Wordclocks Unlike analog audio equipment, digital audio equipment must be synchronized when dig- ital audio signals are transferred from one device to another, otherwise, signals may not be received correctly and audible noise, glitches, or clicks may occur. Synchronization is achieved using what’s called a wordclock, which is a clock signal for synchronizing all the digital audio signals in a system.
Page 65
Wordclocks Selecting the Wordclock Source The wordclock source can be selected as follows. Note: When you change the wordclock settings on any device in your digital audio system, some devices may output noise, so turn down your power amps beforehand, otherwise your speakers may be damaged.
Chapter 5—Digital I/O & Cascading Terminating External Wordclocks Wordclock signals distributed via BNC cables must be terminated correctly, otherwise, jitter and synchronization errors may result. Ideally, you should make a separate wordclock con- nection to each device and terminate it. The following examples show two ways in which wordclock signals can be distributed and how termination should be applied in each case.
2TR Digital Ins 2TR Digital Ins The DM2000 features three sets of 2-track digital inputs: 2TR IN DIGITAL AES/EBU 1 and AES/EBU 2 use XLR-3-31-type connec- tors and accept AES/EBU format digital audio. 2TR IN DIGITAL COAXIAL 3 uses a phono connector and accepts consumer format (IEC-60958) digital audio.
Chapter 5—Digital I/O & Cascading Slot I/O The DM2000 features six Slots for installing optional mini-YGDAI (Yamaha General Digi- tal Audio Interface) I/O Cards, which offer various analog I/O options and digital I/O inter- faces in all the popular digital audio interconnect formats, including AES/EBU, ADAT, and Tascam.
Page 69
Slot I/O Installing I/O Cards Attention: For technical reasons, certain card combinations are not supported. Before installing any cards, check the Yamaha web site (see page 6) to see whether your card is compatible. http://www.yamahaproaudio.com/ Also check the total number of cards that can be installed in the unit. Installing cards that are not endorsed by Yamaha may cause electrical shock, fire, or damage to the unit.

Chapter 5—Digital I/O & Cascading Setting the Transfer Format for Higher Sampling Rates The data transfer format for the higher sampling rates can be set as follows. Use the DISPLAY ACCESS [DIO] button to locate the Higher Sample Rate Data Transfer Format page.
Dithering Digital Outputs Dithering Digital Outputs For digital audio transfer to lower-resolution systems, the 2TR Digital Outputs and Slot Outputs can be dithered to 16-bit, 20-bit, or 24-bit. Use the DISPLAY ACCESS [DIO] button to locate the Dither page. Use the cursor buttons to select the Dither parameters, and use the Param- eter wheel or INC/DEC buttons to set them.
Up to four DM2000s can be cascaded, offering a maximum of 384 Input Channels. Several functions are linked between all cascaded consoles, including Solo, Scene Recall and Store, so that all consoles work just like one big console. A single Yamaha 02R Digital Recording Console can be included in the cascade system.

Remote Control 20 Remote Control About Remote Layers The DM2000’s four Remote Layers allow you to control external MIDI equipment directly from the DM2000. The type of device to be controlled (i.e., the target) can be specified for each Remote Layer. There are three types of target: User Defined, Nuendo, and Pro Tools. User Defined targets allow you to specify the MIDI data that will be transmitted when the 24 channel strip faders, Encoders, and [ON] buttons are operated.
Chapter 20—Remote Control Configuring User Defined Remote Layers User Defined Remote Layers can be configured as follows. Use the DISPLAY ACCESS [REMOTE] button to locate the Remote 1–4 pages. Use the cursor buttons to select the parameters, and use the Parameter wheel, INC/DEC buttons, and [ENTER] button to set them.
Using User Defined Remote Layers ENCODER: These parameters are used to specify the MIDI message (up to 16 bytes) to be transmitted when an Encoder is operated. Use the [SEL] buttons to select the channel strips, and then edit as necessary. When a value from 00 to FF is specified, that value is transmitted when an Encoder is adjusted.
Chapter 20—Remote Control About Machine Control (MMC & P2) The DM2000 can control the transport, locate functions, track arming, and chase function of up to eight external recording machines that support the MMC or P2 control protocol. Machines can be specified as either MTR or Master and controlled independently. Machines that support the P2 protocol can be controlled by connecting them to the DM2000’s REMOTE port using a 9-pin straight cable.
Configuring the REMOTE Port Configuring the REMOTE Port If you are using the P2 protocol to control a machine, the REMOTE port must be configured as follows. Use the DISPLAY ACCESS [SETUP] button to select the Remote Port Setup page. Use the cursor buttons to select the REMOTE FUNCTION P2 button, and then press [ENTER].
Chapter 20—Remote Control Using Shuttle & Scrub The Parameter wheel can be used to shuttle and scrub the external machines. SHUTTLE SCRUB When the [SHUTTLE] button indicator is lit, the Parameter wheel can be used to shuttle. When the [SCRUB] button indicator is lit, the Parameter wheel can be used to scrub. Turn the Parameter wheel clockwise to shuttle/scrub forwards.

Using the Locator [PRE] & [POST] buttons These buttons are used to locate the pre-roll and post-roll points. If the [AUDITION] but- ton indicator is lit, playback starts when a point is located. The pre-roll point is the in point minus the specified pre-roll time.
Chapter 20—Remote Control • When the [QUICK PUNCH] button indicator is lit, pressing the [PLAY] button will locate to the pre-roll point and start playback. At the post-roll point, the machine will stop play- back, locate the pre-roll point, and then stop. •...
Arming Machine Tracks These points can also be set on-the-fly, so long as the DM2000 is receiving timecode. To do this, while holding down the LOCATOR [SET] button, press the [1–8], [IN], [OUT], or [RTZ] button. PREROLL TIME: In conjunction with the in point, this determines the position that will be located when the LOCATOR [PRE] button is pressed.
Chapter 20—Remote Control Configuring MTR Track Arming You can assign MTR machine tracks to the TRACK ARMING [1–24] buttons as follows. These assignments are effective only when the TRACK ARMING [MASTER] button indi- cator is off. Use the TRACK ARMING [DISPLAY] button to locate the MTR Track Arming Configuration page.
Configuring Track Arming Groups TARGET TRACK: This parameter is used to specify the Master machine track that is to be armed when each TRACK ARMING button is pressed. Configuring Track Arming Groups Track arming groups A, B, C, and D provide a quick way to arm multiple MTR or Master machine tracks.
USER DEFINED KEYS are operated. The GPI can also be used to control a “RECORDING” warning light outside a studio, or to trigger the Solo function of a Yamaha 02R Digital Recording Console. Use the DISPLAY ACCESS [SETUP] button to select the GPI page.
Controlling AD824 A/D Converters You can control the Gain and Phantom On/Off parameters of up to 12 Yamaha AD824 A/D Converters from the DM2000 by connecting them to the DM2000’s REMOTE port using a 9-pin reversed cable. Pinouts are provided on page 315.
