The DME64N/24N Configurable Digital Mixing Engine
In addition to basic mixing and matrix output functions, the DME64N/24N includes a full range of processing modules –
equalizers, compressors, reverb and delay, effects, etc. – that can be patched together using the DME Designer software to
support just about any audio system you need. It can serve as the central audio processing and routing unit in an installed
system, or it can serve to augment the functionality of an existing or touring system. A few examples are provided below:
Matrix Output Expansion
Particularly in concert situations there always seems to be a need for more feeds and outputs. The DME64N/
24N can function as an extremely versatile output matrix/router system that can be easily reconfigured to meet
changing system requirements.
Outboard Signal Processing
A single DME64N/24N can replace racks of standard outboard processing and effects gear.
Output Processor
Multi-band output processing is just one of the many output processing functions the DME64N/24N could
be applied to. A single DME64N can handle up to 64 channels, while a DME24N can handle up to 24
channels, for extraordinary capacity and versatility.

System Examples
Single DME24N: A Meeting Room Installation
Here’s an example of a single DME24N used to control the sound in four partitionable regions. The built-in
microphone preamplifiers and A/D converters allow direct connection of up to 8 microphone inputs, while the
8 analog outputs can directly feed four stereo power amplifiers. Scenes can be set up to handle any of the
possible partition configurations, allowing background music and microphone sources to be handled as
required by each configuration.
In this example an ICP1 Intelligent Control Panel is installed in one region to allow scene recall and parameter
control. Other regions have a 1-fader 1-switch CP1SF control panels to allow users to adjust microphone and
background music levels.

Multiple DME64N: Large Stadium Or Multi-purpose Hall System
In this system live audio from microphones is mixed with background music and other sources in the central
control room using a Yamaha DM1000 digital mixing console. A DM1000 equipped with an MY16-AE
digital I/O card and an NHB32-C network hub bridge can feed the control room output to the systems
DME64N units over distances of up to 2 kilometers via multimode optical fiber cables. The control room also
houses the system-control computer running the DME Designer application software, and an ICP1 Intelligent
Control Panel for general DME unit control. The audio and control signals from the control room are
distributed to four amp rooms (zones) via the CobraNet Ethernet cable. One or more DME64N units in each
amp room handles signal routing and output processing (equalization, limiting, crossover) and the resultant
digital output is converted to analog audio and fed to the power amplifiers via ACU16-C Amplifier Control
Units. Scene switching to accommodate a variety of spectator/audience seating areas for different types of
events can be handled from both the control-room PC and ICP1 control panel.

DME64N/24N Audio System Network
To facilitate understanding and conceptualizing an overall DME64N/24N system, the terms “area” and “zone” are applied.
The entire area serviced by the system is the “area,” while audio processing divisions within the area are “zones.” A single
computer can be used to control the entire area as well as individual zones in a DME64N/24N audio system.
Up to 16 DME64N/24N units can operate in any one zone. DME64N/24N units in each zone are interconnected and
function as a single system.
Each zone always includes one DME64N/24N, which functions as the “zone master” and controls all other DME64N/24N
and ICP1 units (zone slaves) in the same zone. If a computer is connected to the zone master, the computer can be used to
control all devices in the zones.

DME64N/24N Audio System Control
DME64N/24N Owner’s Manual

DME64N/24N Audio System Control
To facilitate understanding and controlling an overall DME64N/24N system, the terms “component,” “parameter,” “scene,”
and “user-defined parameter” are applied.
Components & Parameters
The individual audio modules (equalizers, compressors, etc.) are called “components.” Head amplifier modules
are also prepared as components. Changing the parameters of components enables control over the operation
of the components.
Configurations
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 are called “preset parameters.” One DME64N/24N unit has a number of configurations, and
a configuration has a number of preset parameters.
User-defined Parameters
By assigning a parameter to a user-defined parameter, the user-defined parameter can be controlled from the
panels of the DME64N/24N and ICP1, or other controllers connected via MIDI or GPI. Multiple parameters
assigned to a single user-defined parameter will be controlled simultaneously. Up to 24 user-defined parameters
can be used in a zone.
Scenes
A combination of all configuration and preset parameter combinations is called a “scene.” A scene determines
the audio effect(s) in the zone. Scenes can be recalled from the panels of the DME64N/24N and ICP1, other
controllers connected via MIDI or GPI, or computer control. Up to 999 scenes can be stored for each zone.

Scene Change
NOTE
Slight delays might be experienced when switching scenes or editing user-defined parameters, depending on the network
condition.

DME Designer
The DME Designer software application, supplied with the DME64N/24N, can be used to create configurations as well as
control the entire area.
A DME64N/24N network system cannot be set up entirely from the DME64N/24N alone. Configurations and scene data
must be created on a computer running the DME Designer application, and then transferred from the computer to the
DME64N/24N. The DME Designer can also be used to determine how external controllers will control DME64N/24N
parameters.
Refer to the DME Designer Installation Guide for detailed information on connecting a computer to the DME64N/24N and
installing the required software drivers.
Refer to the DME Designer Owners Manual for setup and operation instructions. The PDF manual will automatically be
copied to the computer when the DME Designer application is installed.

Attaching the cable clamp.
Be sure to properly ground the device to prevent possible electrical shock.
First plug the female-connector end of the AC cord into the [AC IN] socket on the rear panel of the
DME64N/24N, then plug the male plug into an appropriate AC mains outlet. Make sure the AC power to be
used complies with the conditions marked on the top cover of the device.
Use only the AC power cord supplied with the DME64N/24N. If the supplied cord is lost or damaged ands needs
to be replaced, contact your Yamaha dealer. The use of an inappropriate replacement can pose a fire and shock
hazard!
The type of AC power cord provided with the DME64N/24N may be different depending on the country in which
it is purchased (a third prong may be provided for grounding purposes). Improper connection of the grounding
conductor can create the risk of electrical shock. Do NOT modify the plug provided with the DME64N/24N. If the
plug will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician. Do not use a plug adapter which
defeats the grounding conductor.
Preparation
Security Cover Mounting
Security cover mounting screw holes (M3 size) are provided on the front panel of the unit. The spacings are
423mm width and 96mm (DME64N) / 52mm (DME24N) height. See “Dimensions” on page 68 for
details. A security cover made by the customer or contractor can be attached to the front panel via these
mounting holes to prevent accidental operation. Yamaha cannot supply a security cover.
When mounting a cover make sure that the screws used do not go deeper than 15 millimeters into the front
panel. Also, to ensure that the cover does not come in contact with the panel controls, leave a space of about
20 millimeters between the front panel and the cover.
