Mode 4: Audio From Dme64N To Pm5D - Yamaha Cascade PM5D Setup Manual

Mode 4: Audio from DME64N to PM5D

This uses the CASCADE IN port of PM5D, but is not a Cascade function. (MIX buses are not merged: you use the PATCH function to choose the required audio connections.)
NOTE:
It is not possible to use the Cascade function for combining DME cascade output with the MIX buses of PM5D.
Advantages:
Use DME for extra input channels, like a sub-mixer.
Patch DME cascade outputs to any input of PM5D.
Still all 4 slots can be used for outputs, such as multi-track recording.
Get 32 channels from DME to PM5D even at 96 kHz (The CASCADE IN/OUT ports can work in 'DOUBLE SPEED' mode.)
Disadvantages:
Inputs from up to 2 slots are lost (32 inputs).
DME Control function is not possible.
DME audio cannot be monitored from PM5D.
