• Before moving the device, remove all connected cables.

• When setting up the device, make sure that the AC outlet you are using is easily accessible. If some trouble or malfunction occurs, immediately turn off the power switch and disconnect the plug from the outlet. Even when the power switch is turned off, electricity is still ﬂowing to the product at the minimum level. When you are not using the product for a long time, make sure to unplug the power cord from the wall AC outlet.

•Avoid setting all equalizer controls and faders to their maximum. Depending on the condition of the connected devices, doing so may cause feedback and may damage the speakers.

• Do not expose the device to excessive dust or vibrations, or extreme cold or heat (such as in direct sunlight, near a heater, or in a car during the day) to prevent the possibility of panel disﬁguration or damage to the internal components.

• Do not place the device in an unstable position where it might accidentally fall over.

Page 5

• Do not block the vents. This device has ventilation holes at the front and rear to prevent the internal temperature from rising too high. In particular, do not place the device on its side or upside down, or place it in any poorly-ventilated location, such as a bookcase or closet.

• Do not use the device in the vicinity of a TV, radio, stereo equipment, mobile phone, or other electric devices. Otherwise, the device, TV, or radio may generate noise.

Connections

• Before connecting the device to other devices, turn off the power for all devices. Before turning the power on or off for all devices, set all volume levels to minimum.

• Be sure to connect to a properly grounded power source. A ground screw terminal is provided on the rear panel for safely grounding the device and preventing electrical shock.

Maintenance

• Remove the power plug from the AC outlet when cleaning the device.

Handling caution

• Do not insert your ﬁngers or hand in any gaps or openings on the device (vents, ports, etc.).

• Condensation can occur in the device due to rapid, drastic changes in ambient temperature—when the device is moved from one location to another, or air conditioning is turned on or off, for example. Using the device while condensation is present can cause damage. If there is reason to believe that condensation might have occurred, leave the device for several hours without turning on the power until the condensation has completely dried out.

•Avoid inserting or dropping foreign objects (paper, plastic, metal, etc.) into any gaps or openings on the device (vents, ports, etc.) If this happens, turn off the power immediately and unplug the power cord from the AC outlet. Then have the device inspected by qualiﬁed Yamaha service personnel.

• Do not use the device or headphones for a long period of time at a high or uncomfortable volume level, since this can cause permanent hearing loss. If you experience any hearing loss or ringing in the ears, consult a physician.

• Do not rest your weight on the device or place heavy objects on it, and avoid use excessive force on the buttons, switches or connectors.

Backup battery

This device has a built-in backup battery that maintains data in internal memory even when the device’s power is switched off. The backup battery will eventually become depleted, however, and when that happens the contents of the internal memory will be lost.* To prevent loss of data be sure to replace the backup battery before it becomes fully depleted. When the remaining capacity of the backup battery becomes so low that it needs to be replaced a “Low Battery” or “No Battery” message will appear on the display during operation or when the device is powered on. If either of these messages appears do not turn off the power and immediately transfer any data you want to save to a computer or other external storage device, then have qualiﬁed Yamaha service personnel replace the backup battery. The average life of the internal backup battery is approximately 5 years, depending on operating conditions.

* Data items maintained in the internal memory by the backup battery are as

follows:

• Current scene parameters and number.

• Device parameters (SLOT, HA, UTILITY, Master Mute/Level, etc.).

• Event log.

Data items other than those described above are stored in memory that does not require backup power, and will be retained even if the backup battery fails.

Do not turn the [POWER] switch on and off repeatedly and rapidly. Be sure to wait six seconds or more between turning the power to the unit off and then on.

Yamaha cannot be held responsible for damage caused by improper use or modiﬁcations to the device, or data that is lost or destroyed.

Always turn the power off when the device is not in use.

The performance of components with moving contacts, such as switches, volume controls, and connectors, deteriorates over time. Consult qualiﬁed Yamaha service personnel about replacing defective components.

Introduction to the DME64N/24N

Differences between DME64N/24N

The DME64N has four I/O card slots, while the DME24N has one I/O card slot and eight channels of builtin analog audio I/O.

A single I/O card can handle up to 16 channels of audio I/O, so the DME64N can handle a maximum of 64 audio I/O channels. The DME24N can handle up to 24 audio I/O channels.

The DME64N has approximately double the DSP processing power of the DME24N.

DME64N/24N Features

In addition to basic mixing and matrix output functions, the DME64N/24N includes a equalizers, compressors, delay, etc. – that can be patched together via DME Designer to configure just about any audio system you need.

Audio System Network

Differences between DME64N/24N

Multiple DME series units that are interconnected in a network via Ethernet function as a single audio system. In a DME audio system, a group of the same models that can be operated in sync is called a “device group;”

audio processing divisions that accommodate multiple device groups are called “zones;” and the entire area serviced by the acoustic system is called an “area.”

Each device group always includes one DME series unit that functions as the “group master” and controls all other DME series units in the same device group.

If a computer is connected to the network, you can use the computer to control an entire device group via the group master.

Glossary for the DME64N/24N

This section explains terminology specific to the DME64N/24N.

Components and parameters

The individual audio processing modules (equalizers, compressors, etc.) are called “components.” External head amplifier control modules are also available as components. Changing the parameters of components enables control over the operation of the components.

Conﬁguration

A “configuration” is a complete set of components for constructing an audio system. Each configuration determines the audio function(s) of the corresponding DME64N/24N unit. All parameter sets included with each component in a configuration are called “preset parameters.” One DME64N/24N unit has a number of configurations, and a configuration has a number of preset parame-

ters.

User Deﬁned buttons

Assigning parameters to be User Defined Buttons enables you to control the device from the ICP1 and the DME64N/DME24N.

Glossary for the DME64N/24N

Scene

A combination of all configuration and preset parameters is called a “scene.” Scenes can be recalled from an ICP1, GPI device, other external controllers, DME64N/DME24N, or comput-

er. Up to 999 scenes can be stored for each device group.

Signal Types

DME64N/24N audio system signals can be broadly categorized as follows.

1 Audio

The DME64N/24N will be required to send and receive audio signals to and from other DME series units as well as other audio equipment.

Audio signal transmission and reception will occur primarily via the [INPUT] and [OUTPUT] connectors on the DME24N.

2 Control signals within a device group

Device group control signals control all DME series devices in the group. There are two types of device group control signals, as follows:

• Control signals between the computer and the group master DME series unit

• Control signals between the group master DME series unit and the other DME series units

You can use the DME Designer application to control the entire device group, such as sending components to the devices and setting the parameters as required.

3 Control signals between devices outside the device group

These signals provide communication and control between individual devices. Included in this category are MIDI messages transferred between [USB] connectors, GPI signals transferred be-

tween [GPI] connectors, and remote head amp control signals handled via the [REMOTE] connector.

About DME Designer

DME Designer software enables you to integrate, configure, and control the DME series system from a connected computer.

You can build the DME series audio system using graphic blocks in DME Designer that are displayed on the computer monitor.

The DME series settings, configuration, and parameter data are transferred from the computer to the DME series unit via the USB or Ethernet connection.

DME series settings, configuration, and parameter data is sent via USB or Ethernet to the connected DME series unit. After the data is transmitted, you can disconnect the DME series unit from the computer and use it as an independent processor.

You can also connect it to a computer and control it in realtime from DME Designer. If multiple DME series units are connected in the network, DME Designer enables you to build a configuration

that includes those units. Please download the DME Designer application, driver, DME setup manual, and DME Designer Owner’s

Manual at the following URL: http://www.yamahaproaudio.com/ Refer to the “Connecting to a Computer” (page 22) for more information on connecting a computer to the

DME64N/24N. For details on how to install DME Designer and the drivers that are required for connection, refer to the “DME Setup Manual.”

Refer to the DME Designer Owner’s Manual for setup and operation instructions.

Audio I/O Connection

Analog Audio Connection ([IN] and [OUT] Connectors) (DME24N only)

The DME24N includes [IN] and [OUT] connectors for 8 channels of analog audio input and output. Wire the supplied Euroblock plugs as shown below. Head ampliﬁer gain and phantom power settings can be made via the Utility display HA page described on page 54 of this manual, or via the DME Designer application.

Euroblock Connection

Please be sure to use the supplied Euroblock plugs. If you lose them, contact your nearest Yamaha dealer.

Cable preparation

Audio I/O Connection

• To prepare the cable for attachment to a Euroblock connector, strip the wire as shown in the illustration, and use stranded wire to make connections. With a Euroblock connection, the stranded wire may be prone to breakage because of metal fatigue due to the weight of the cable or due to vibration. When rack-mounting your equipment, use a lacing bar when possible to bundle and fasten the cables.

• If cables will be frequently connected and disconnected, as in the case of a portable installation, we recommend that you use ferrules with insulation sleeves. Use a ferrule whose conductor portion has an external diameter of

1.6 mm or less, and a length of approximately 7 mm (such as the AI0,56WH made by the Phoenix Contact corporation).

If you use stranded wire, do not tin (plate with solder) the exposed end.

Cascade Connection ([Cascade] Connectors) (DME64N only)

The rear-panel [CASCADE] connector can be connected to the [CASCADE] connector on another DME64N/24N or other compatible device via a dedicated cascade cable for bidirectional transfer of control, audio, and word clock signals. The communication direction automatically switches to unidirectional when connecting to a mixer such as the PM5D, or bidirectional when connecting to another DME64N/24N unit. Up to eight DME64N units can be cascade connected. In the unidirectional mode the audio signal ﬂow is from the [CASCADE OUT] connector to the [CASCADE IN] connector. For bidirectional communication the data ﬂows in both directions within a single cable, and input on the same channel from other DME64N units is summed (bus sharing). The total number of audio channels that can be connected to a mixer or DME64N/24N unit is 32. Word clock is continuously output from both the [CASCADE IN] and [CASCADE OUT] connectors, and is received by the corresponding [CASCADE IN] or [CASCADE OUT] connector on the connected device. In all cases the [CASCADE OUT] of one device must be connected to the [CASCADE IN] connector of the other. Do not connect [CASCADE IN] to [CASCADE IN], or [CASCADE OUT] to [CASCADE OUT].

NOTE

Maximum length by the optional dedicated Cascade cables Unidirectional Cascade connection: 200m (44.1/48kHz), 100m (88.2/96kHz) Bidirectional Cascade connection: 100m (44.1/48kHz), 30m (88.2/96kHz)

NOTE

It is also possible to remotely control DME series units from the PM5D via a CASCADE connection. In such cases assign the nearest DME64N unit to the PM5D as the device group master. When using a DME64N/24N together with the DME Satellite, you must assign the DME Satellite as the master. Another method of remotely controlling a DME series from a PM5D is via CobraNet connections to MY16-C or MY16-CII cards. All DME series units to be controlled from the PM5D must be in the same device group, and the host address of the device group master must be set to “2.” However, if the PM5D is version 2.20 or higher and the DME Satellite is version 3.07 or higher, you can set the parameter to any number. For information on the PM5D DME CONTROL function refer to the PM5D/PM5D-RH Owner’s Manual or to the “Cascade Setup Guide” available at the Yamaha website. http://www.yamahaproaudio.com/

WORD CLOCK Connection ([WORD CLOCK] Connectors)

Word clock signals are transferred to and from external devices via the [WORD CLOCK IN] and [WORD CLOCK OUT] connectors. The [WORD CLOCK OUT] connector can be used to supply the DME64N/ 24N word clock to external equipment. Word clock is continuously output by the DME64N/24N during normal operation. The word clock signal from an external device can be received via the [WORD CLOCK IN] connector.

NOTE

Word clock can also be received and transmitted via a mini-YGDAI card installed in an I/O slot, or the [CASCADE IN] and [CASCADE OUT] connectors. It is necessary to specify whether the DME64N/24N will use the internal word clock or an external word clock for synchronization. Refer to the Utility display WCLK page described on page 50 of this manual for details.

NOTE

A device transmitting the word clock signal that will be used by other devices for synchronization is the “word clock master,” while devices received the word clock are “word clock slaves.”

Using GPI a variety of control signals can be transferred between the DME64N/24N and external controllers or other devices. The optional CP4SW, CP4SF, and CP1SF control panels are also connected via GPI.

NOTE

For more information on the CP4SW, CP4SF, and CP1SF control panels refer to “CP4SW, CP4SF, and CP1SF” in the Appendix of this manual (page 53).

The DME64N provides 16 channels of GPI input and output, and the DME24N provides 8 channels. Each channel has an IN terminal, a +V terminal, an OUT terminal and a GND terminal. The +V terminals have an open-terminal voltage of 5 volts. The IN terminals can detect a full range of input voltages from 0V through 5V, while the OUT terminals output either signal “L” or “H” at a TTL level.

The parameters for each GPI input and output are assigned via the DME Designer application.

NOTE

The DME Designer can be used to set up the system so that scene recall operations and user parameter control can be carried out from connected GPI control devices. Refer to the DME Designer manual for details.

DAW Control

1. Parameter Control Function

Lets you control DME64N/24N parameters using a DAW Controller. For example, if the PAN parameter is assigned to CH1 of the DAW controller, you can control the PAN parameter by operating a knob. There are two modes in the parameter control function, as follows:

(1) General Parameter Operation Mode

[KNOB] and [CH FADER] controls are used to operate internal parameters assigning them in DME Designer. For detailed settings, see the “DME Designer Owner’s Manual.”

(2) Final Output Stage Parameter Operation Mode

Final output stage parameters are operated using [MUTE] and [CH FADER] controls. Unlike the General Parameter Control Mode, controls and the parameters that are compatible with them, are ﬁxed in this mode.

[Method of Operation]

[▲]: Switches to General Internal Parameter Control Mode. [▼]: Switches to Final Output Stage Parameter Control Mode. [BANK <][BANK >]: The channels targeted for operation are shifted by the number of channels built into the DAW controller. [CH <][CH >]: The channels targeted for operation are shifted one channel at a time. [SELECT]: Switches the display method on the DAW controller. When turned OFF, an overall display appears. When a channel is turned ON, the detail display appears for that channel. For information about the overall and detail displays, see the next item, “Setting and Parameter Name Display Function.” [KNOB]: Changes assigned parameters in the General Internal Parameter Operation Mode. This is not used in the Final Output Stage Parameter Operation Mode. [MUTE]: This is not used in the General Internal Parameter Operation Mode. This turns muting ON or OFF for the corresponding channel in the Final Output Stage Parameter Operation Mode. [CH FADER]: Changes assigned parameters in the General Internal Parameter Operation Mode. This adjusts volume for the corresponding channel in the Final Output Stage Parameter Operation Mode.

1 HA

Speciﬁes the type of head ampliﬁer to be set up. The available options are AD8HR, AD824, and Built-in HA (DME24N only). When the AD8HR and AD824 are selected, a number indicating the connection order will also appear. Edit using the “List Parameters” editing procedure described on page 38.

3 Format (AD8HR only)

Displays the 88.2/96 kHz audio signal transfer mode. The input setting is on the left and the output setting is on the right.

No Display (default): 44.1/48 kHz audio signal transfer.

SP (Double Speed): Allows direct transfer at 88.2 or 96 kHz.

CH (Double Channel): 88.2 or 96 kHz audio is transferred by using two 44.1/48 kHz channels to transfer each audio channel of 88.2 and 96 kHz respectively. The number of audio channels that can be handled in this mode is half the number of channels normally handled by the AD8HR.

4 Gain

Individually sets the gain of each head ampliﬁer channel. Edit using the “Numeric Parameters” editing procedure described on page 36.

NOTE

The gain of the DME24N internal head ampliﬁers can be adjusted from +10 dB to –60 dB in 1-dB increments. The internal circuitry switches at about the –45-dB point, and the signal is automatically muted at that point to prevent noise. The AD8HR gain can be adjusted from +10 dB to –62 dB in 1-dB steps, and the AD824 gain can be adjusted from +10 dB to –62 dB in 6-dB steps. The PAD will be internally switched on or off when the gain of the DME24N built-in head ampliﬁer is adjusted between -8 dB and -7 dB. Keep in mind that noise may be generated if there is a difference between the Hot and Cold output impedance of the external device connected to the IN connector when using phantom power.

5 +48V

Individually turns phantom power ON or OFF for each head ampliﬁer channel. Use the [E] and [F] keys to position the cursor at the desired channel, then press the [ENTER] key to alternately turn phantom power for that channel ON and OFF.

• Always turn the phantom power off when it is not needed.

CAUTION

• When turning phantom power ON, make sure that no equipment other than phantom-powered devices such condenser microphones are connected to the [IN] connectors (DME24N only). Applying phantom power to a device that does not require phantom power can damage the device.

• Do not connect or disconnect a device to a [IN] connector (DME24N only) while phantom power is applied. Doing so can damage the connected device and/or the unit itself.

• To prevent speaker and possible hearing damage, be sure to turn power ampliﬁers OFF when turning phantom power ON or OFF. It is also a good idea to turn the output level all the way down (page 39).

6 Phantom Master Switch (AD8HR only)

Displays overall phantom power ON or OFF.

7 High-pass Filter (HPF) (AD8HR only)

Individually turns the high-pass ﬁlter for each AD8HR head ampliﬁer channel ON or OFF. This parameter is only available for the AD8HR head ampliﬁer. Use the [E] and [F] keys to select a channel, then press the [ENTER] key to turn the HPF for that channel ON or OFF.

Cascade Setup (CASCAD) Page

MODE: Thru

Directly connects the Input and Output of each slot oneto-one for each channel. When input-only or output-only cards like AD or DA cards are inserted in the slots, you cannot perform checks in this mode. In the DME24N, the internal AD and internal DA are directly connected on each channel.

MODE: Summing

Sums all input signals coming from Inputs (-12dB), without regard to device or card type, and outputs it through all Outputs.

Options

The ICP1, CP4SW, CP1SF, and CP4SF controllers are available as options for remote external control of the DME series. The ICP1 connects via Ethernet, while the CP4SW, CP1SF, and CP4SF connect via the GPI interface. For more information on installing your Control Panel and connecting it to a DME series unit, refer to the owner’s manual that came with the Control Panel. For more information on settings, refer to the DME Designer Owner’s Manual.

ICP1

This controller connects to a DME series unit via Ethernet. Like the DME series units, a unique IP address must be assigned to each controller unit. Data is transmitted and received via Ethernet cables.

You can assign and control any function of all DME series units in the same device group via the controller. Up to four parameter sets can be assigned to six function keys (F1 – F6) located above and under the LCD. You

can control up to 24 parameters by selecting a display page using the [HOME] key.

Options

CP4SW, CP4SF, and CP1SF

These controllers connect to DME series units via the [GPI] connectors. These controllers control only the DME series units to which they are directly connected. The controller switches enable you to turn the parameter settings On and Off. The switch LEDs enable you to check the parameter status. The faders enable you to control the parameter values.

Supplemental Information 1

Messages Transmitted When Multiple Messages are Assigned to the Same Parameter

The DME64N/24N MIDI transmit messages are speciﬁed via the “MIDI Control Change Table” and “MIDI Parameter Change Table.” The “MIDI Control Change Table” and “MIDI Parameter Change Table” can be set up via the DME Designer application. Multiple messages can be assigned to a single parameter, but the DME64N/24N will only transmit one of the assigned messages. The transmitted messages are as follows:

• If a Control Change message and a Parameter Change message are assigned to the same parameter → the Control Change message will be transmitted.

• If multiple Control Change numbers are assigned to the same parameter → the smallest Control Change number message will be transmitted.

• If multiple Parameter Change numbers are assigned to the same parameter → the smallest Parameter Change number message will be transmitted.

Supplemental Information 2

Setting the Parameter Change Message Parameter Data Values

The Parameter change parameter values are expressed as 32-bit integers with or without parity.

• A parity bit (positive: 0, negative: 1) is added above the most signiﬁcant value bit (bit 31).

• Fractional parameters will be converted according to the integer table.

• For integers with parity, negative numbers are expressed as the 2’s complement.
