| The ICP1 intelligent control panel features controls
virtually identical to those on the DME64N/DME24N front panels,
giving operators remote control capabilities for both DMEs. It
offers unmatched ease of use thanks to a large, easy-to-read
backlit LCD display that shows names for scenes and function keys
in 5 languages - Japanese, English, French, German and Spanish. The
6 function keys appearing at the top and bottom of the LCD screen
can be assigned to most parameters for easy remote control access.
Up to 4 sets of function key assignments are available for a total
of 24 parameters. Users can switch assignment sets by pressing the
HOME key. A single function key can be used for simultaneous
multiple parameter control by defining parameter links. Function
keys are defined using the DME Designer software.
DSP Power that Rivals Advanced
Digital Mixers
The DME64N and DME24N employ Yamaha's original DSP6 and DSP7
signal-processing LSIs for extraordinary audio processing power and
quality. The DME64N offers processing power that is on a par with
Yamaha's DM1000 Digital Mixing Console, and the smaller DME24N has
about half that processing capability while offering built-in
analog I/O for simple, more compact systems. In either case you get
a remarkable amount of processing capability that allows complex
systems to be built around a single DME unit and fine tuned for
optimum performance in concert halls, multi-purpose halls, event
spaces, institutions, and a wide range of other applications.
Plenty of DSP power also means that advanced configurations that
previously required multiple hardware units can now run comfortably
on just one DME64N or DME24N. All of this translates into
significant time, energy, and cost savings for the design,
installation, and operation of DME-based systems.
24-bit 96-kHz Processing and
Circuitry Designed for Superior Sound
It's no secret that Yamaha digital mixing consoles are favored by
leading professionals for live sound and studio recording
applications. Yamaha DME mixing engines benefit from the same
cutting-edge audio technology and attention to details that make a
real difference in sound and performance. Both the DME64N and
DME24N deliver faultless precision and reproduction fidelity with
optimally-tuned 24-bit, 96-kHz digital processing, and the DME24N
also features high-performance analog head amplifiers that equal
the sound and quality of those found in top-line mixing
consoles.
Note: Configurations created for 48-kHz operation will require half
the processing power of configurations created for 96-kHz
operation.
Exceptional I/O Flexibility and
Expandability - Cascade Up to 8 DME64N Units for 512 Inputs and 512
Outputs
The DME64N has four rear-panel expansion slots that accommodate
Mini-YGDAI I/O cards, and the DME24N has one expansion slot. Each
slot supports up to 8 analog inputs or outputs when fitted with
precision A/D or D/A cards, or up to 16 channels of digital I/O in
AES/EBU, ADAT, or TASCAM format. With it's four expansion slots the
DME64N can support up to 64 channels of I/O, while the DME24N has a
single slot plus 8 channels of built-in analog I/O for a total of
24 channels. For even larger systems up to eight DME64N units can
be cascaded to provided a massive 512 digital inputs and 512
digital outputs, or 128 analog inputs and 128 analog
outputs.
Control Integration with the PM5D
Digital Mixing Console
Selected DME64N and DME24N parameters can be directly controlled
from the PM5D Digital Mixing Console for seamless, efficient
operation. This capability is particularly useful in situations
where the DME unit is located away from the optimum listening
position, allowing parameters to be adjusted without having to
leave the main console position.
Eight Analog Inputs and Outputs on the DME24N
The DME24N provides eight built-in analog inputs and outputs via
Euroblock terminals on the rear panel. The analog inputs and
outputs feature precision 24-bit, 96-kHz A/D and D/A converters
that deliver top class audio performance.
CobraNet™ Connectivity with Optional MY16-CII Card
Use the DME64N or DME24N in an advanced CobraNet" digital audio
network by simply plugging an MY16-CII CobraNet™ card into an
expansion slot. This makes the DME unit compatible with other
CobraNet™ compliant products such as the NHB32-C network hub
and bridge, and the ACU16-C amplifier control unit. The DME64N can
supports up to two MY16-CII cards. The DME24N can accommodate a
single MY16-CII card.
Ethernet Control
A network of up to 16 DME64N, DME24N and ICP1 Intelligent Control
Panel units can be interconnected via their RJ45 connectors and
100Base-T CAT5 type Ethernet cables. Ethernet connection makes it
possible to set up a control network quickly and easily, and with
minimum cost.
GPI, RS232C/RS422, USB, and MIDI
Interfaces
Both the DME64N and DME24N offer a comprehensive selection of
control interfaces for use with a wide variety of equipment. The
DME64N has 16 GPI input and output terminals while the DME24N has
eight to facilitate interfacing with other GPI-equipped devices.
RS232C/RS422 ports allow direct connection to remote control units
and computers, USB ports allow direct hookup with most modern
computers, and MIDI terminals can be used for synchronization and
control with musical instruments, sequencers, and lighting
controllers.
Large LCD Display with
Comprehensive Panel Controls
Large, easy-to-read LCD display panels and a comprehensive
selection of panel controls make the DME64N and DME24N easy to
operate. The front panel even includes a headphone jack and level
control for convenient monitoring. The DME24N additionally provides
signal and peak LEDs for its eight analog inputs and
outputs.
Scene and Function Names in 5
Languages
The DME64N and DME24N, as well as the ICP1 Intelligent Control
Panel, can display scene and function names in 5 languages:
English, Japanese, French, German, and Spanish. All three models
offer a user-friendly interface for smooth operation regardless of
the user's level of skill or experience.
