  • Page 5: Introduction

    Introduction Introduction Thank you for purchasing the Yamaha ProR3 Digital Reverberator. The ProR3 marks a new era in Yamaha’s reverberation technology. Third-generation Yamaha digital signal processors (DSP) with 32 bit digital signal processing and high-performance 20 bit linear A/D and D/A convert- ers provide unprecedented density and resolution, with breathtakingly dynamic impact.
  • Page 6: Front Panel

    These are six LEDs which indicate program status and other functions of the ProR3. STEREO, L/R MONO The input mode of the currently selected program is shown by three indicators. The ProR3 has four input modes (Stereo, LR/Mix, R-Mono, L-Mono), selected by the UTILITY key. When both L/R Mono indicators are lit, LR/Mix mode is selected.

    17 INPUT jacks These are balanced input jacks which input the analog signal from your mixer or multi-track recorder to the ProR3. If the source is monaural, use the UTILITY key to select an appropriate input jack (see page 33).
  • Page 11: Basic Use - Using A Preset Program

    Turn on the ProR3 before the other connected equipment. When turning off the power of the system, turn off devices starting with the power amp and working backward toward the signal sources.
  • Page 12: Adjusting The Input Level

    Basic use – using a preset program – Adjusting the input level When the power has been turned on for the ProR3 and the other equipment, make the sound sources produce sound, and adjust the input level of the ProR3.
  • Page 13: Preset Program List

    Basic use – using a preset program – Description The ProR3’s standard hall-type reverb. Simulates a large hall with good acous- tics, and is suitable for any instrument. A program with a slight delay between the sparse early reflections and the rich reverberation.

Gives ambiance to drums, lead instruments, and vocals. Simulates an early and extremely expensive digital reverb unit.
  • Page 15 This program combines a chorus effect and reverb to create spaciousness and depth. A multi-phase chorus combined symphonic effect and reverb creates spacious- ness and depth, with a multi-phase chorus. Reverb is applied to a stereo feedback echo of up to 400 ms left and right.

  • Page 18: Advanced Uses (2) - Editing Functions

    This section explains how you can edit your own programs. How programs are organized Each of the ProR3 program consists of two main stages; the primary effect and the secondary effects. Of these, the primary effect can be selected from one of the following ten types, and will depend on the program that you select.
