Introduction

Thank you for purchasing the Yamaha EMX2000 Powered Mixer. In order to take full advantage of the EMX2000 and enjoy long, trouble-free performance, please read this owner’s manual carefully, and keep it in a safe place for future reference.

Features

• The EMX2000 provides versatile inputs, such as two stereo input channels and two stereo sub inputs, as well as eight monaural input channels compatible with mic/line signals. The mixer also has ample power, with a maximum output of 200 W+200 W (400 W with bridge connection), and is suitable for a wide range of applications from installed systems to small-scale PA systems.

• A two-channel power amp is built-in. The signals output to speakers can be selected as stereo main (ST L-R), monitor+monaural main (MONI 1MONO), or monaural main (bridge connection).

– Stereo main The main stereo mix signal is output from speaker output jacks L and R of the EMX2000. You can connect one or two speakers to each speaker output jack.

– Monitor+monaural main The main monaural mix signal is output from speaker output jack R, and the monitor signal from speaker output jack L. You can connect one or two speakers to each speaker output jack.

– Monaural main (bridge connection) The two-channel power amp is bridge-connected, and the main monaural mix signal is output from BRIDGE jack. You can connect only one speaker for a much louder sound.

• In addition to the speaker output jacks, two stereo output channels for line-level signals, two monitor output channels, one effect output, and one monaural output are provided. You can easily expand the system by adding a power ampliﬁer or powered speakers.

• The EMX2000 also has a PHONES C-R OUT jack, which is very useful for checking the sound. You can monitor only a speciﬁc channel or bus signal through the headphones.

• Two limiter circuits are built-in to prevent excessive input levels to the amp.

• A digital effect with sixteen selectable effect types is built-in. A variety of effects can be applied to add reverberation or ambience to vocals or instrumental sounds.

• The EMX2000 has implemented “EEEngine”, Yamaha’s epochal amp drive technology to create an unrivaled high-efﬁciency drive. The EEEngine’s energy-saver/low-heat-generation design has reduced power consumption to 50% or less, and reduced heat generation to 35% or less (in ﬁeld applications, compared to Yamaha’s previous models), and has lead to a reduction in energy cost and to less-restrictive installation requirements related to heat generation.

EMX2000—Owner’s Manual

Precautions

3

1. Avoid excessive heat, humidity, dust and vibration

Keep the unit away from locations where it is likely to be exposed to high temperatures or humidity — such as near radiators, stoves, etc. Also avoid locations which are subject to excessive dust accumulation or vibration which could cause mechanical damage.

2. Ventilation

Allow a distance of 30 cm between the unit and the wall so that heat generated from the unit will be released effectively. Also, allow enough space between the unit and other devices. If you mount the unit in an audio rack, keep a space of 40 cm on the top panel, and a space of 15 cm to the side panel. Remove the rear panel of the rack or open a vent hole. If heat release is inadequate, the unit will retain heat inside the unit, which may cause a ﬁre.

3. Avoid physical shocks

Strong physical shocks to the unit can cause damage. Handle it with care.

4. Do not open the case or attempt repairs or modiﬁcations yourself

This product contains no user-serviceable parts.

Refer all maintenance to qualiﬁed Yamaha service personnel. Opening the case and/or tampering with the internal circuitry voids the warranty.

5. Always power off before making connections

Always turn the power OFF before connecting or disconnecting cables. This is important to prevent damage to the unit itself as well as other connected equipment.

6. Handle cables carefully

Always plug and unplug cables — including the AC power cord — by gripping the connector, not the cord.

7. Clean with a soft dry cloth

Never use solvents such as benzine or thinner to clean the unit. Wipe clean with a soft, dry cloth.

8. Always use the correct power supply

Make sure that the power supply voltage speciﬁed on the rear panel matches your local AC mains supply. Also make sure that the AC mains supply can deliver more than enough current to handle all equipment used in your system.

9. Do not touch the heatsink when the EMX2000 is in use. It can get very hot.

1 Channel input jacks (MIC, LINE) 1~8

These are the input jacks for channels 1~8. By using the GAIN control (control panel 1)

you can connect any of the jacks to a wide range of sources, from mics to line-level devices (including synthesizers and rhythm machines). The MIC jacks can provide +48V phantom power, allowing you to use condenser microphones.

Both MIC and LINE are balanced. They are compatible with microphones of output

impedance 50~600Ω or line level devices of 600Ω. The nominal input level is –34 dB~+10 dB

for the LINE jacks, and –60 dB~–16 dB for the MIC jacks.

Pin connections for the MIC and LINE jacks are as follows:

Note: It is not possible to simultaneously use both the MIC and LINE inputs of a given channel. For each channel, use only one of the inputs as appropriate for the input source. Phantom power is switched on/off simultaneously for channels 1~8. For this reason, devices (in particular, unbalanced devices) other than condenser microphones must be connected to the LINE jacks of channels 1~8 or channel 9/10~11/12 input jacks if the PHANTOM +48V switch (control panel Y) is on.

2 INS I/O (insert) jacks 1~4

These are TRS phone jacks that enable you to insert an external effect processor, such as a compressor/limiter, between the equalizer and fader of input channels 1~4. These connections require a special “Y” cable, such as shown in the following diagram. The nominal input/output levels are 0 dB.

1 SPEAKERS (speaker output) jacks

Speakers can be connected to these jacks. The type of signals output, the number of speak-

ers you can connect, and acceptable impedance differ depending on the setting of the Power amp select switch (control panel V).

• When the Power amp select switch is set to ST

L-ST R or MONI 1-MONO:

You can connect one or two speakers to each of the L and R jacks.

When the Power amp select switch is set to ST LST R, the speakers connected to the L and R jacks will output the ST L and ST R bus signals. When the switch is set to MONI 1-MONO, the speakers will output the MONITOR L signal and the monaural signal respectively.

Whichever way the switch is set to, connect 4~8Ω

speakers if you use one speaker per channel. The

maximum output is 200W+200W with two 4Ω

speakers. If you wish to use two speakers per channel, use

8~16Ω speakers. The maximum output is 200W+200W with 8Ω impedance.

Caution:

When using a bridge connection, do not connect anything to the SPEAKERS L or SPEAKERS R jacks. Likewise, when using the SPEAKERS L and/ or SPEAKERS R jacks, do not connect anything to the BRIDGE jack.

2 POWER switch

This switch turns on/off the power to the EMX2000.

Note: Before turning on the power to the EMX2000, be sure to turn down the LEVEL control U on the control panel.

• When the Power amp select switch is set to

MONO BRIDGE:

If you are connecting a single speaker to the

BRIDGE jack, use a 8~16Ω speaker. The speaker

outputs the MONO bus signal, and the maxi-

mum output is 400W with 8Ω impedance.

If the signal output from the BRIDGE jack is the signal input to the P.AMP IN jack, be sure to input the signal to the P.AMP IN L jack.

Connecting microphones and instruments

1 Before connecting mics or instruments,

make sure that the power of all equipment (where applicable) is turned off. Also make sure that each channel fader and the faders in the master section are turned down. Check to see if the Power amp select switch on the control panel is set to ST L-ST R.

2 Connect cables to your mics and instru-

ment, and insert the other end of the cables ﬁrmly into the appropriate MIC/ LINE jacks (channels 1~8) or the 9~12 jacks (channels 9/10~11/12).

Note: You cannot use channel 1~8 MIC and LINE jacks at the same time.

3 Turn on the power to the peripheral

devices, then turn on the power to the EMX2000.

Note: When turning the power off, reverse this sequence.

4 While speaking into the mic (or while

playing the instrument), adjust the channel GAIN control so that the channel PEAK indicator lights occasionally at the maximum volume.

5 Raise the ST1 fader in the master section

to the “10” position, and while speaking into the mic (or while playing the instrument), adjust the channel fader so that the 0 LED of the peak level indicator lights occasionally. Use the LEVEL control to adjust the maximum level of the speakers.

6 If you wish to adjust the tone of each

channel, rotate the equalizer controls as desired.

7 Use the graphic equalizer and the ST

fader in the master section to adjust the overall volume and tone.

Using the digital effect

The EMX2000 has a built-in digital effect, allowing reverberation or ambiance to be added to vocals or instrumental sounds.

1 Connect a mic or instrument to the

desired channels, and adjust the volume and tone.

2 Press the ON switch of the digital effect

section.

3 Use the Effect selector to select the type

of effect you wish to apply.

VOCAL ECHO 1~4 ....... Echo appropriate for

vocals.

VOCAL REVERB 1~4.... Reverb appropriate for

vocals.

HALL 1~3............ Reverb typical of a large hall.

ROOM................. Reverb typical of a small room.

PLATE 1~3 ..........Plate echo-like reverberation

GATE REVERB ... Special effect of truncating

reverberation

4 Raise the EFFECT control of the channels

to which you wish to apply the digital effect.

5 Use the ST control of the digital effect

section to adjust the level of the effect sound.

Note: You can send the effect sound to the MONITOR 1/2 bus by raising the MONI 1/2 control in the digital effect section. If the effect sound is distorted even though the ST control and the MONI 1/2 controls in the digital effect section are turned all the way down, lower the EFFECT controls of the digital effect section.

6 Raise the EFFECT control of the digital

effect section to the desired level.

Note: The setting of the EFFECT fader in the master section does not affect the internal effect.

Note: The volume level is affected by the settings of the channel equalizers and the graphic equalizer. When you set the equalizers, check the peak level indicator and adjust the ST fader if necessary.

Example setups

This section provides some ways in which the EMX2000 can be used, and explains connections and operation.

As a band PA

Here is an example of using the EMX2000 as a small PA for a band. In this example, the monitor speakers are being sent a mix that is independent of the MAIN speaker mix. An external effect such as delay or reverb is also being used.

■ Connections

• Connect mics or instruments, such as keyboards, to channel input jacks 1~8.

• Connect the main speakers to the SPEAKERS R 1/2 jacks, and connect the monitor speakers to the SPEAKERS L 1/2 jacks. Set the Power amp select switch to “MONI 1-MONO.”

• If you use an external effect such as delay or reverb, connect the EMX2000’s EFFECT jack to the input jack of the external effect, and connect the output jack of the external effect to the EMX2000’s ST SUB 1.

Note: If you are using an external effect, we recommend that you turn down all the EFFECT controls of the digital effect section. You can connect the output of an external effect to channels 9/10 and 11/12 to apply the equalizer to the effect return signal. However in this case, make sure that the EFFECT controls are turned all the way down for the channels into which the effect sound is being input. If the EFFECT controls are raised, feedback will occur, and your speakers may be damaged.

SPEAKERS jacks R 1 R 2L 1L 2

Main speakers

■ Connections

• Connect mics to channel inputs 1~8.

• A CD player/LD player/cassette deck can also be connected to the input jacks of channels 9/10 and 11/12.

• To record a meeting or a party, connect the REC jacks of the EMX2000 to the input jack of a recording cassette deck, and to monitor the recording on the EMX2000, connect the TAPE jacks of the EMX2000 to the output of the recording cassette deck.

• Connect the main speakers to the SPEAKERS L 1/2 jacks and the SPEAKERS R 1/2 jacks, and set the Power amp select switch to ST L-ST R.

■ Playing back a CD player

1 Turn on the power to the peripheral

devices, then to the EMX2000.

2 Start playback on the CD player. Use the

GAIN control of channel 9/10 so that the PEAK indicator below the GAIN control will light occasionally. Then, raise the ST 1 fader to the “10” position, and adjust the channel 9/10 fader so that the 0 LED of the peak indicator will light occasionally.

EMX2000—Owner’s Manual

■ Sending an independent mix to

the monitor speakers

1 Set the MONI 1 or MONI 2 fader to the

“10” position.

2 Raise the MONI 1 or MONI 2 controls for

the channels that you wish to hear from the monitor speakers.

Note: The MONI controls are not affected by the level settings of each channel. This allows you to create a mix that is independent of the main speakers.

3 Use the MONI 1 or MONI 2 fader of the

master section to adjust the overall volume.

Using a subwoofer

■ Using an external effect processor

You may sometimes want to use an external effect processor, such as an echo machine or a multieffect unit. In this case, refer to the diagram on page 13 for connection information and follow the steps below.

1 Set the EFFECT fader of the master sec-

tion to the “10” position.

2 Raise the EFFECT controls for the channels

to which you want the external effect to be applied.

3 Use the EFFECT fader in the master sec-

tion to adjust the level of the signal output to the external effects processor so that the sound will not be distorted at the input of the external effects processor.

4 Use the control of the ST SUB channel to

which the processed signal is input from the external effects processor to adjust the level of the effect sound.

Here is an example of using a subwoofer in the speaker system.
