* Please keep this manual in a safe place for future reference.

WARNING

Always follow the basic precautions listed below to avoid the possibility of serious injury or even death from electrical
shock, short-circuiting, damages, fire or other hazards. These precautions include, but are not limited to, the following:

Power supply/Power cord

• Only use the voltage specified as correct for the device. The required voltage is
printed on the name plate of the device.

• Use only the specified power code.

• Do not place the power cord near heat sources such as heaters or radiators, and
do not excessively bend or otherwise damage the cord, place heavy objects on
it, or place it in a position where anyone could walk on, trip over, or roll anything
over it.

Do not open

• Do not open the device or attempt to disassemble the internal parts or modify
them in any way. The device contains no user-serviceable parts. If it should
appear to be malfunctioning, discontinue use immediately and have it inspected
by qualified Yamaha service personnel.

Water warning

• Do not expose the device to rain, use it near water or in damp or wet conditions,
or place containers on it containing liquids which might spill into any openings.

• Never insert or remove an electric plug with wet hands.

If you notice any abnormality

• If the power cord or plug becomes frayed or damaged, or if there is a sudden
loss of sound during use of the device, or if any unusual smells or smoke
should appear to be caused by it, immediately turn off the power switch,
disconnect the electric plug from the outlet, and have the device inspected by
qualified Yamaha service personnel.

• If this device should be dropped or damaged, immediately turn off the power
switch, disconnect the electric plug from the outlet, and have the device

• Before moving the device, remove all connected cables.

•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.

• Do not block the vents. This device has ventilation holes at the top/front/rear/
sides 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 poorly­ventilated 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.

Handling caution Backup battery

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

•Avoid inserting or dropping foreign objects (paper, plastic, metal, etc.) into any
gaps or openings on the device (vents, 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 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.

• This device has a rear-panel slot for installing mini-YGDAI cards. For technical
reasons, certain card combinations are not supported. Before installing any
cards, check the Yamaha web site (see page 6) to see whether your card is
compatible.
Installing cards that are not endorsed by Yamaha may cause electrical shock,
fire, or damage to the unit.

• This device has a built-in backup battery. When you unplug the power cord from
the AC outlet, the internal data is retained. However, if the backup battery fully
discharges, this data will be lost. If the backup battery is running low, when you
turn on the device the display indicates “WARNING Low Battery!.” In this case,
immediately save the data to an external media using MIDI Bulk Dump, then
have qualified Yamaha service personnel replace the backup battery.

• Using a mobile telephone near this unit may induce noise. If noise occurs, use the telephone away from the unit.

• The digital circuits of this unit may induce a slight noise into nearby radios and TVs. If noise occurs, relocate the affected equipment.

• When you change the wordclock settings on any device in your digital audio system, some devices may output noise, so turn down your power amps beforehand,
otherwise your speakers may be damaged.

A INPUT connectors A/B

INPUT A connectors are balanced XLR-3-31-type connectors that accept line-level and
microphone signals. Each of the phantom [+48V] switches on the rear panel turns on or off
the +48V phantom power feed to the corresponding input. INPUT B connectors are bal­anced TRS phone-type connectors that accept line-level and microphone signals. The nom­inal signal level of both types of connectors ranges from –60 dB to +4 dB. Phantom power
is not supplied to these connectors.

If you connect cables to INPUT A and INPUT B connectors of the same number, only the
signal from INPUT B is effective.
