Yamaha Offers Feature Set Upgrade for DME32 Digital Mixing EngineORLANDO, FL—Yamaha Corporation of America, Commercial Audio, an established leader in digital signal processing, announces a new upgrade for the DME32 Digital Mixing Engine. The new feature set contains enhancements specifically designed for the contractor and systems integration markets. Upgrades will also be available on the Yamaha Pro Audio website at www.yamaha.com/proaudio/products/system_dme.htm beginning May 2001.{2182.jpg DME32 Digital Mixing Engine Equipped with the latest Yamaha DSP technology, this 32-input, 32-output processor—expandable to 128 inputs and 128 outputs with 32 cascade busses—has been engineered for a variety of applications including: installed systems, loudspeaker system control, matrix/routing, multi-effects processing, surround mixing, submixing and format conversion. "The DME32 has had a great response, thus far," notes Larry Italia, national sales & marketing manager, Commercial Audio. "The new upgrades will make the DME32 even more appealing to consultants and contractors considering it for an installation." Improvements include: support for Windows NT/2000 and ME; more resolution for parameters (EQ and crossover); keyboard entry of parameters; nudging of parameters via cursor keys; 32x32 matrix mixer and router; stereo GEQ and PEQ components; fade time between scene recalls; component library for PEQ, GEQ, dynamics and effects; recall safe in each component; parameter value copy; and a DME to DXF file converter. "Installation contractors, sound reinforcement, studio and audio post professionals will find these expanded features extremely valuable," adds Marc Lopez, product manager, Commercial Audio. The DME32 operates at a sampling rate of 48 kHz and 32-bit resolution, with parameter adjustments, scene changes and other functions accessible from the front panel of the 3U rack-space unit. A range of digital and analog I/O is also available via four MY (mini-YGDAI) card slots. Intuitive "block diagram"-style programming, using Yamaha proprietary software and an outboard computer (which may be removed once the unit is programmed and configured), offers a palette of DSP "components." Accessible from pull-down menus, these include: matrix mixers, parametric and graphic EQs, dynamics processors (compressor, noise gate, expander, de-esser and "ducker"), delays, crossovers, automatic mic mixers and multi-effects processors. A system may be designed by dropping component blocks on the screen and drawing a line from the output of one "component" to the input of another to produce signal flow. The system includes the AD824 and DA824 A/D and D/A converters, which can be located up to 200 meters from the DME32 via AES/EBU cards, enabling the placement of inputs and outputs throughout a facility as needed. Up to eight inputs and eight outputs are available in the following formats: ADAT, T/DIF, AES/EBU and analog I/O. Peripheral devices are available for expansion and interfacing with other components. The DME32 may be expanded by adding remote I/O components—the AD824 or DA824—or by plugging Yamaha's MY8/MY4 series mini-YGDAI interface cards into the unit's dedicated slots. Up to four DME32 units may be cascaded together to provide a total of 128 inputs and 128 outputs with 32 cascade busses for maximum capability.
