Important Information
Read the Following Before Operating the 03D
Warnings
• Do not place a container with liquid or small metal objects on top of this unit. Liquid
or metal objects inside this unit are a fire and electrical shock hazard.
• Do not locate the 03D in a place subject to excessive heat or in direct sunlight. This
could be a fire hazard.
• Do not place the 03D in a place subject to excessive humidity or dust. This could be
a fire and electrical shock hazard.
• Connect the 03D power cord only to an AC outlet of the type stated in this
Manual
• Do not plug several devices into the same AC outlet. This can overload the AC outlet,
and can be a fire and electrical shock hazard. It may also affect the performance of
some devices.
• Do not place heavy objects on the power cord. A damaged power cord is a potential
fire and electrical shock hazard.
• If the power cord is damaged (i.e., cut or a bare wire is exposed), ask your dealer for
a replacement. Using the 03D in this condition is a fire and shock hazard.
• Hold the power cord plug when disconnecting from an AC outlet. Never pull the
cord. Damaging the power cord in this way is a potential fire and electrical shock
hazard.
• Do not place small metal objects on top of the 03D. Metal objects inside the 03D are
a fire and electrical shock hazard.
• Do not block the 03D ventilation holes. The 03D has ventilation holes at the top and
rear to prevent the internal temperature from rising. Blocked ventilation holes are a
fire hazard.
• Do not try to modify the 03D. This could be a fire and electrical shock hazard.
• The 03D operating temperature is between 5˚C and 35˚C (41˚F and 95˚F).
or as marked on the 03D. Failure to do so is a fire and electrical shock hazard.
Owner’s
Cautions
• Turn off all audio devices and speakers when connecting to the 03D. Refer to the
owner’s manual for each device. Use the correct cables and connect as specified.
• If you notice any abnormality—such as smoke, odor, or noise—turn off the 03D
immediately. Remove the power cord from the AC outlet. Confirm that the abnormality is no longer present. Consult your dealer for repair. Using the 03D in this condition is a fire and shock hazard.
• If a foreign object or water gets inside the 03D, turn it off immediately. Remove the
power cord from the AC outlet. Consult your dealer for repair. Using the 03D in this
condition is a fire and electrical shock hazard.
• If you plan not to use the 03D for a long period of time, remove the power cord from
the AC outlet. Leaving the 03D connected is a fire hazard.
• Do not use benzene, thinner, cleaning detergent, or a chemical cloth to clean the
03D. Use only a soft, dry cloth.

03D—Owner’s Manual
Chapter 1—Welcome to the 03D
2
Welcome to 03D
Thank you for choosing the Yamaha 03D Digital Mixing Console. Based on the highly
successful 02R Digital Recording Console, the new Yamaha 03D has been designed with
music production and project studios in mind, although its unique and flexible features
will also appeal to audio post and sound reinforcement and installation providers.
About this Owner’s Manual
The 03D Owner’s Manual contains all the information you need to use your 03D Digital Mixing Console. Use the table of contents to find general information and familiarize yourself with the organization of this manual, and use the index to search for specific
items. A glossary of 03D-related jargon is provided on page 281.
Each chapter in this manual discusses a single area of the 03D. For example, “Input
Channels” explains all about input channels, while “Scene Memories” explains all about
scene memories. The contents of most chapters are obvious from the chapter title.
Rather than repeat some explanations several times, items that are common to many
channels, such as EQ and the dynamics processors, are explained in their own chapters.
Where possible, the individual sections of a chapter have been organized in order of signal flow. The “Input Channel” chapter, for example, starts with the input connectors
and works through each input channel function, finishing up at the buses.
03D Installation
Site the 03D on a stable surface, somewhere that complies with the important information at the beginning of this manual. The 03D can be rack-mounted using the optional
rack-mount kit.

Key Feature Discussion
Configuration
The 03D provides a total of 26 inputs (including 8 digital inputs), stereo output (analog
or digital), 4 bus outs, 4 aux sends, 2 internal effects sends, and 8 assignable digital outputs via a single YGDAI (Yamaha General Digital Audio Interface) slot. Each input
channel features four-band parametric EQ and a dynamics processor. Input channels 1
to 8 feature balanced XLR and phone jack connections, with individually switched
phantom power. Inputs 1 and 2 feature analog inserts. Input delays can be used for
microphone-placement compensation, while output delays can be used for delay-compensation in multi-speaker systems. The number of inputs can be increased by digitally
cascading two 03Ds together, sharing Bus, Aux, Stereo, and Solo buses. YGDAI digital
inputs and outputs can be configured as bus outs, aux sends, input channel direct outs,
or stereo outs. So although the 03D is a four-bus mixer, assigning the four buses and
four aux sends, or the channel direct outs to the YGDAI slot’s eight outputs allows
eight-track simultaneous recording.
Benefits of a Digital Mixer
You’re probably already familiar with the many benefits offered by digital audio, but
what exactly are the benefits for digital audio mixing? Well, an audio mixer has the job
of combining audio signals from various sources, at differing levels and impedances,
usually into a stereo mix. And it must do this without introducing any new distortions
and noise. Analog mixers do a pretty good job, but even with the best designs, nonlinear
effects caused by circuit components are unavoidable.
In the digital realm, audio mixing consists of adding and multiplying binary numbers
that represent audio signals. The DSP (Digital Signal Processor) chips used for these
calculations never get their sums wrong. So once past the initial A/D conversion, audio
signals are immune from signal degradation. With the 03D, noise, distortion, and
crosstalk are virtually eliminated. You’ll hear a new clarity in your mixes.
Once in the digital domain, it makes sense to keep audio data digital, as multiple
AD/DA conversions can degrade signal quality. With the optional YGDAI interface
cards, the 03D can be connected directly to a modular digital multitrack recorder,
thereby keeping audio data in the digital domain for both recording and mixing. The
final stereo mix can be transferred to a two-track digital recorder using the 03D’s
AES/EBU or Coaxial digital output.
Onboard digital effects and dynamics processors mean that signals remain in the digital
domain, eliminating unnecessary AD/DA conversion. Signal processing is performed
by third-generation Yamaha DSPs, as used in the Yamaha ProR3 Digital Reverberator.
03D—Owner’s Manual
03D Sonic Performance
The 03D’s linear 20-bit 64-times oversampling A/D converters provide a typical
dynamic range of 105 dB. The 03D can generate the industry standard sampling rates
of 44.1 kHz and 48 kHz, or synchronize to an external wordclock source from 32 kHz
–6% to 48 kHz +6%. The stereo output and monitor output feature 20-bit 8-times
oversampling D/A converters, while the aux sends and bus outs feature 18-bit 8-times
oversampling D/A converters. Oversampling techniques effectively increase the internal sampling rate, so side effects caused by steep low-pass filters, which are used to filter
out sampling frequency components during D/A conversion, are virtually eliminated.
Consequently, audio signal integrity is maintained from input through to output.
Key Feature Discussion
Four-band Parametric EQ & Library
The 03D input channels, stereo input channel, stereo output, bus outs, aux sends, and
onboard effects returns all feature four-band fully parametric EQ, with variable gain,
frequency, Q, and bypass. That’s 160 bands of EQ! High and low EQ bands can be used
as shelving, peaking, or HPF and LPF, respectively. See EQ on page 45 for more information.
EQ settings can be stored as programs in the EQ library, with all channel settings in a
channel library program, or with all mix settings in a mix scene. Real-time EQ adjusts
can be automated using the onboard Automix function. See Automix on page 175 for
more information.
The EQ library contains 40 preset programs and 40 user programs. User programs
allow you to store frequently used EQ settings, and they can be titled for easy identification. The unique collection of preset EQ programs are designed for specific applications and instruments, and provide a good reference and starting point when making
EQ adjustments. See EQ Library on page 48 for more information.
Motorized Faders
The 03D features 60 mm motorized faders that move automatically when a mix scene
is recalled or an automix is played, providing a clear visual indication of fader levels. A
fade time of up to 10 seconds can be set individually for each mix scene. Faders can be
grouped together in one of four fader groups for multiple fader control. See Fader
Groups on page 112 for more information. Faders of a pair of channels configured as a
stereo pair move simultaneously. See Stereo Pairs on page 114 for more information.
5
The ST OUT and ST IN faders always control the stereo output and stereo input channel levels, respectively. The EFFECT RETURN fader controls the return levels of the
two onboard effects processors. The operation of faders 1 to 16, however, depends on
the selected mixing layer. When the mixing layer is set to 1–16, the faders work with
input channels 1 to 16. When set to 17–24/MASTER, however, they work with input
channels 17 to 24, the aux sends, and the bus outputs. See Mixing Layer on page 31 for
more information. As well as perform channel level adjustments, faders are used as aux
send and effects send level controls. Fader operation is set using the FADER MODE
buttons. See Fader Mode on page 13 for more information.
Onboard Effects Processors
The 03D features two onboard stereo multi-effects processors: Effect 1 and Effect 2.
These provide a wide range of quality effects, including reverb, delay, chorus, flange,
amp simulator, and more. There are 34 different effects types available. The effects processors are fed by the Effect 1 and Effect 2 buses, and the processed signals are returned
through the effects return channels. Effects can be applied to input channels and the
stereo input channel.
Effects settings can be stored as programs in the effects library, which contains 64 preset
programs and 32 user programs. User programs allow you to store your own effects
programs, and they can be titled for easy identification. See Effects Library on page 125
for more information. Effects settings are also stored in mix scenes.
Existing outboard gear can be patched into the 03D via the four aux sends.
03D—Owner’s Manual
Chapter 1—Welcome to the 03D
6
Onboard Dynamics Processors
Dynamics processors, providing compression, ducking, gating, and expansion, are
available on all input channels, the stereo input channel, the stereo output, bus outs,
aux sends, and the onboard effects returns. That’s a total of 36 dynamics processors!
Dynamics processors can be self triggering (i.e., the signal being processed is used as the
trigger signal), or triggered by a signal from another channel.
Dynamics settings can be stored as programs in the dynamics library, with all channel
settings in a channel library program, or with all mix settings in a mix scene. The
dynamics library contains 40 preset programs and 40 user programs. User programs
allow you to store your own dynamics programs, and they can be titled for easy identification. See Dynamics Library on page 147 for more information.
Existing signal processing gear can be patched into the 03D via the analog insert connections on input channels 1 and 2.
YGDAI & Digital I/O
The 03D features a single YGDAI slot, providing eight digital inputs and eight assignable digital outputs. The 03D accepts the same single-size YGDAI cards as the 02R Digital Recording Console. These cards provide a direct, digital connection to modular
digital multitrack recorders, such as the Alesis ADAT, Tascam DA88 or DA38, and
AES/EBU and Yamaha (Y2) format equipment. See YGDAI Cards on page 223 for more
information.
In addition, AES/EBU and Coaxial digital stereo inputs and outputs allow direct connection to digital recorders and other digital devices. Digital stereo signals can be
routed to the Stereo bus for cascade operation or to the stereo input channel for mixing
and processing. See Digital Stereo In on page 221 for more information.
Easy-to-Learn GUI Interface
03D operation is both logical and intuitive. The large 320 x 240 dot display with fluorescent backlight uses graphical icons to represent controls, and provides a clear indication of current settings and EQ curves. A PC-compatible serial mouse can be
connected for quick navigation and parameter editing. On/off-type parameters can be
set with a simple click, and rotary controls can be dragged. The CH View page shows all
settings of the selected channel at a glance. See Channel View on page 108 for more
information.
Surround Pan
03D—Owner’s Manual
As well as normal stereo pan, the 03D features three surround pan modes: 2+2, 3+1,
and 3+2+1. In conjunction with the stereo out and bus outs, surround pan controls
allow you to pan channel signals in a two-dimensional space. Surround pan controls
can be used to move sounds in a circular motion, ellipsis, semicircle, or straight line.
Sounds can be moved around the two-dimensional space in real time using a mouse.
Normal stereo pan and surround pan movements can be automated using the Automix
function. See Surround Pan on page 62 for more information.
Key Feature Discussion
Scene Memories
On many mixers, the only way to store mix settings is with marker pen and masking
tape. With the 03D, however, virtually every mix setting can be stored as a mix scene in
one of the 03D’s 50 scene memories. Mix scenes can be recalled instantly with just one
button press, or MIDI Program Change command. Mix scenes can also be recalled as
part of a dynamic automix, providing “total automation”. If you work on several
projects at a time, you can store the current mix scene so when you return to that
project, you can start again right where you left off. Scene memories also make light
work of night-after-night sound checks. Simply press recall to return to the previous
night’s mix settings. For theater work, scene memories allow accurate and repeatable
sound changes between scenes.
Automix
The 03D’s Automix function provides dynamic mix automation referenced to an external timecode source. The external timecode can be either MTC (MIDI Timecode) or
MIDI Clock. Automix can be used to record and playback fader moves, channel mutes,
EQ changes, pan, and more. In addition, mix scene, EQ, channel, effects, and dynamics
library recalls can be included in an automix, combining snapshot and dynamic automixing for “total automation”. Events recorded in an automix can be edited off-line.
Fader moves can be edited “on the fly”, or off-line using the Trim function. The Undo
function can be used to revert to the previous automix after making changes that you
do not want to keep.
7
MIDI
In addition to standard MIDI connectors, the 03D features a TO HOST connector. This
allows the 03D to be connected directly to a personal computer without a MIDI interface. By connecting other MIDI gear to the 03D’s standard MIDI connectors, the 03D
can be used as MIDI interface for an entire MIDI system.
All mix parameters that can be stored in a mix scene can be controlled using MIDI System Exclusive messages. MIDI Program Change messages can be used to recall mix
scenes. Up to 114 03D parameters can be assigned to MIDI Control Change messages
for 03D control from a remote device. Scene memory, library, and automix data can be
dumped to and from other MIDI devices, such as a MIDI data filer for backup and
archive, a controlling computer, or another 03D. See MIDI on page 231 for more information.
MMC (MIDI Machine Control) commands can be assigned to the 03D’s four USER
DEFINE buttons for remote machine control (stop, play, rewind, forward, and record).
Using the MIDI Remote function, other MIDI gear can be controlled using the 03D’s
faders, [ON] buttons, and PARAMETER wheel. The 03D comes with MIDI Remote
pages for the following: Yamaha Programmable Mixer 01, 02R, and 03D digital consoles; Yamaha ProR3 and REV500 digital reverbs; GM and XG compatible tone generators; and Pro Tools. Custom pages can be configured for use with other MIDI gear.

A MIXING LAYER button
The [MIXING LAYER] button determines the functions of the faders, [ON] buttons,
and [SEL] buttons. When set to 1–16, these controls work with input channels 1 to 16.
When set to 17–24/MASTER, however, they work with input channels 17 to 24, the aux
sends, and the bus outputs. As well as the [MIXING LAYER] button, the function of the
faders is determined by the fader mode setting. The Mixing Layer setting is shown on
the display. See Display on page 24 for more information.
B SEL buttons
The [SEL] buttons are used to select channels for parameter editing. The name of the
selected channel is shown on the display. See Display on page 24 for more information.
The function of each [SEL] button depends on the selected Mixing Layer. See SEL Buttons on page 31 for more information. With automix, [SEL] buttons are used to select
channels for recording. See Automix on page 175 for more information. The [SEL] buttons are also used to select channels for the fader and mute groups. See Groups & Pairs
on page 111 for more information.

C INPUTs 1–8
Input channels 1 to 8 feature balanced XLR-3-31-type and balanced phone jack connectors, both with a nominal input range of –60 dB to +10 dB. Individually switchable
+48 V phantom powering is supplied to the XLR connector. The phone jack has priority over the XLR-type connector, so when a phone plug is inserted, the XLR-type connector is disconnected. The phone jack inputs can also be used with unbalanced phone
plugs. With their high sensitivity and 26 dB PAD switches, these inputs can handle a
wide range of signals, from condenser microphones to “hot” line levels.
