Can I load only my PM5D User Defined Key setup from my memory card?
Save "User Defined Key" file on to your memory card first.
Open SAVE screen. Select USER DEFINED KEY as a type of file to save, then click SAVE.
Now you can load your User Defined Key setup to your console without overwriting any other information.
Open LOAD screen and select the file you saved, then load it to the console. If you would like to load only one bank instead of loading all four banks, select ADVANCED mode and select a source bank and a destination bank to load.

Where is a multi-band compressor on my console?
PM1D (V1.6 or later), PM5D, M7CL, LS9, and DM/0 series has a program of multi-band dynamics in EFFECT unit (M.Band Dyna.).
PM5D, M7CL, and LS9 has multi-band compressor program also. This is little simplified version and easier to use. (M.Band Comp)
They are both have stereo input and stereo output.

While our Japan trip, the new firmware V2.40 for DM2000, DM1000, 02r96, and 01v96 are released.
They got a same issue fixed. If you have MY8-AE96 or MY8-AE96S installed to those consoles and have experienced a word clock synchronization issue, please check the download page for the detail.
This time, update was only for the firmware. Your current Editor V2.1.3 is compatible with the new firmware.

We are in Las Vegas this week for PM5D and M7CL seminars. All classes are full but a few seats are available for the PM5D Scene Management and Expansion class on Wednesday. Please check our web site for your seat.
Also, we are accepting applications for classes in Charlotte, NC (PM5D and M7CL) and Chicago, IL (PM5D and M7CL). Please check our web site for the detail.
Jose and I just came back from Japan yesterday and traveled to Las Vegas today.
The Japan trip was for a training for a new product which was launched but not released yet. It will be a powerful addition to our product line, we believe.

Is there any short-cut to the DCA/MUTE Group assign mode popup?
If the [DCA] key is selected in the NAVIGATION KEYS section, you can access the DCA/MUTE GROUP ASSIGN MODE popup window by pressing the Centralogic section [SEL] key twice in rapid succession.
In this case, the DCA/MUTE GROUP ASSIGN MODE popup window will appear with the DCA GROUP 1–8 button selected for that DCA group. (Owner's Manual p.114)

What is the largest number of input channels the PM5D system may have?
192 channels = four PM5D(-RH) uni-directionally cascaded
144 channels = one PM5D(-RH) and two DSP5D bi-directionally cascaded
192 channels = four PM5D(-RH) uni-directionally cascaded
- Only the last console (Console D in the illustration below from Owner's Manual p.226) has audio mixed from every unit.
- Some of functions, such as Scene Recall/Store, DCA, and Mute group, can be linked but no total remote control from one console to the others. Which means you need to go to the console to change the parameter.
- Needs enough space to put them all....
144 channels = one PM5D(-RH) and two DSP5D bi-directionally cascaded
- Every unit may have audio mixed from every unit (bi-directional audio flow between the three)
- Just one control surface to control all of those 144 input channels
- Most of the functions are linked to offer an easier operation experience with an integrated 144 channel system instead of with three 48 channel systems.
- Smaller footprint. Furthermore, the DSP5Ds could be setup on stage.

I'm sorry for updating this page late. Other pictures from this week are following.Thank you very much for coming to the 2nd day of PM5D class. Some of advanced Scene features are discussed in the morning and DSP5D and DME were introduced as expansion ideas for the PM5D system after the lunch time.
Please also refer to the topics about Scene memory on this blog (Copy only selected Scene(s) to the console, Copy the Libraries to the console (PM5D)).

The trash can was not the subject we talked about today. (It was not there at the last time we took a picture here... I will find a better location to take a shot tomorrow.... ... or move the trash can.)Thank you for coming to the class, everyone. It was a PM5D operational training at our office. We had good questions which would be here as FAQs.
When you open the Yamaha MIDI-USB Driver from the Control Panel, you see options like the following screen shot.
There's a option called "Thru ON/OFF" with a checkbox. Please keep it UNCHECKED for your consoles and other Yamaha Commercial Audio products. It slows down the communication between the products and the computer and can cause a problem.

After the long Independence day weekend, we are back to the training at our home office.
How was your July 4th weekend? I decided to go to San Francisco with our dogs. Unfortunately, the fireworks at the Pier 39 was in the fog and we could not see it from the Crissy Field.Which fireworks did you see at the night?

When you get a rental console with old version of firmware, what will you do?
Will you update the console? Maybe not... Then, you will start looking for the correct version of Editor software to synchronize with the old firmware.
Ok, now you can download old version of the Editor software from YamahaProAudio.com.
In the Editor download page, there is a matching matrix for the firmware and the Editor.
Please refer to the link below.
1. Check the firmware version of the console
2. Check the Editor version which you have on your PC/Mac
3. Check the matching between them with the version history page: PM5D, DSP5D, M7CL, and LS9
4. If you need an old Editor program, download it from the links right.

Copying the matching matrix to your local disk would be a good idea.
For PM1D, it is a little simpler. Just use the same version of the PM1D Manager with the firmware and the former version of programs are available in the PM1D/PM1D V2 version history page.
