DESCRIPTION 

The DM7 Compact is a Dante-equipped versatile digital mixing console with unparalleled sound quality, ease of operation, and high reliability that make it perfect for a wide range of applications. The DM7 Compact is configured with 12 + 4 faders and a 1 x 12” + 1 x 7” multi-touch screen, and a rack-mountable with an optional RK1 rack mount kit.

FEATURES 

Off to a Solid Start

It all starts with your sound, and if the input section of your mixer is compromised or lacking in any way, your mix isn't likely to meet your, or your audience’s expectations. To meet our own very strict standard of sound quality, the inputs of Yamaha consoles and I/Os are meticulously designed and constructed. We take every aspect of the initial input stage into consideration in order to achieve our signature “transparent sound”, from the individual components, power supply, and grounding, to the circuit layout, and mechanical structure of the inputs.

In addition, the DM7 series supports sample rates up to 96kHz for superior, high-resolution sound quality.

Powerful Channel Strip

The DM7 series Channel Strip is equipped with numerous advanced functions for convenient, intuitive sound creation. In addition to the Channel EQ inherited from the RIVAGE PM, the newly added FET Limiter and Diode Bridge Compressor offer expanded dynamics control, while the new “History” function combines with the existing comps and gates for easier and more precise dynamics adjustment than ever. The “Mix Balance” parameter is yet another new function that allows you to easily mix the original sound with a compressed sound and apply parallel compression. In addition, the order of EQ and Dynamics 2 can now be changed to suit your creative preferences, further expanding the range of sound creation.

The DM7 series also features the Dan Dugan automatic mixer with up to 64 channels in the channel strip as a standard feature. In cooperation with Dan Dugan Sound Design, a US company renowned for its proprietary algorithm-based automatic microphone mixer, the automatic mixer function can be conveniently accessed from the channel strip without the need for EQ RACK resources.

The input meters now also include a histogram display to help adjust HA levels.

Extensive Plug-ins and New Effects

The DM7 series is equipped with an extensive suite of plug-ins to accommodate a wide range of applications, including VCM models of the renowned Portico 5033 equalizer and Portico 5043 compressor/limiter— both developed through close cooperation with Rupert Neve Designs. Also included are Yamaha's original plug-ins, such as the DaNSe dynamic noise suppressor, and the Dynamic EQ, which are well known among audio engineers.

The FX RACK features high-quality multi-effects processors with forty-three types of high-grade effects including the newly equipped REV HD and REV R3 to inspire a broader depth of creative sound reproduction.

Advanced GUI for Intuitive Control

The DM7 series advanced graphical user interface is an audio engineer’s delight, offering the ultimate in touch operation convenience that gives users instant intuitive access to the console’s impressive depth of functionality.

The Selected Channel View, which provides a list of operational information on the channel strip, retains the best aspects of previous GUI’s but with an updated operation format that requires fewer steps and less time than ever before.

The same familiar touch screen operation that you use in your daily life is now available on your mixer.

Compact and Lightweight Construction for Easy Setup and Transport

Ease of transport and a fast setup are among the most important features for mixing consoles in most environments and applications. With the DM7 series, the angle of the display, the pitch of the faders and buttons, and the position of the strip lights have all been carefully designed to maintain the high operability and visibility of the display in a compact chassis. The DM7 Compact can also be rack-mounted by removing the side pads, making the most of limited space at live sites.
