Audio System Network; Glossary For The Dme Satellite - Yamaha DME4io-ES Owner's Manual

Introduction to the DME Satellite

Audio System Network

Multiple DME series units that are interconnected in a network via Ethernet function as a single audio system.
In a DME audio system, a group of the same models that can be operated in sync is called a "device group;" audio
processing divisions that accommodate multiple device groups are called "zones;" and the entire area serviced by
the acoustic system is called an "area."
Each device group always includes one DME series unit that functions as the "group master" and controls all other
DME series units in the same device group.
If a computer is connected to the network, you can use the computer to control an entire device group via the
group master.

Glossary for the DME Satellite

This section explains terminology specific to the DME Satellite.
Components and parameters
The individual audio processing modules (equalizers, compressors, etc.) are called "components."
External head amplifier control modules are also available as components.
Changing the parameters of components enables control over the operation of the components.
Configuration
A "configuration" is a complete set of components for constructing an audio system.
Each configuration determines the audio function(s) of the corresponding DME Satellite unit.
All parameter sets included with each component in a configuration are called "preset parameters."
One DME Satellite unit has a number of configurations, and a configuration has a number of preset parameters.
User Defined buttons (User Defined parameters)
Assigning parameters to be User Defined parameters enables you to control the device from the ICP1 and the
DME64N/DME24N.
Refer to the "DME Designer Owner's Manual" for details.
