Input patching

CL series consoles and I/O devices feature two types of patching: Dante audio network patching and CL console internal patching.

For Dante audio network patching, you will use the DANTE INPUT PATCH window. In this window, you can patch the CL console and I/O device inputs. Sixty-four (64) channels can be input from a Dante audio network to a CL series console. You can choose up to 64 channels from a maximum of 512 channels (logical value) of Dante audio network signals. Select the I/

O device (up to 64 channels) that you want to control from the CL series console.

Then, route the input signals (that were patched in the DANTE INPUT PATCH screen) to channels on the CL series console. To do this, choose input ports from DANTE 1-64 in the

GAIN/PATCH screen.

NOTE

By default, DANTE 1-64 are assigned to input channels 1-64.

Output patching

Use the OUTPUT PORT screen to patch the CL console's output channels and Dante audio network. In this window, assign output channel signals to DANTE 1-64 ports.

NOTE

By default, MIX 1 - 24 are assigned to DANTE 1 - 24, MATRIX 1 - 8 are assigned to DANTE 25

- 32, STEREO L/R are assigned to DANTE 33/34, and MONO is assigned to DANTE 35.

Next, patch the output signals from DANTE 1-64 (assigned in the OUTPUT PORT SETUP screen) to I/O rack outputs. Use the OUTPUT PATCH screen of the I/O RACK to make these assignments.

Input channels

This chapter explains various operations for input channels.

Signal flow for input channels

The input channels comprise the section that processes signals received from the I/O devices, rear panel input jacks, or slots 1-3, and sends them to the STEREO bus, MONO bus,

MIX buses, or MATRIX buses. There are two types of input channels, as follows.

MONO channels

These channels are used to process monaural signals. When the CL series console is in the default state, the input signal from the Dante connector is assigned.

• Ø (phase)

Switches the phase of the input signal.

• DIGITAL GAIN

Attenuates/boosts the level of the input signal.

• HPF (High Pass Filter)

Cuts the region below the specified frequency.

• 4 BAND EQ (4 band equalizer)

A parametric EQ with four bands: HIGH, HIGH MID, LOW MID, and LOW.

• DYNAMICS 1

This is a dynamics processor that can be used for gating and ducking, or as an expander or compressor.

• DYNAMICS 2

This is a dynamics processor that can be used as a compressor, compander, or de-esser.

• INPUT DELAY

Corrects input signal delay. You can specify up to 1000ms.

• LEVEL/DCA 1-16

Adjusts the input level of the effect.

Reference Manual

Relationship between analog and digital gain while Gain

Compensation is on

If Gain Compensation is on, adjusting the analog gain by a specific amount will cause the I/O device to output to the audio network a signal that is attenuated by the same amount.

Therefore, the signals on the audio network will maintain a constant corrected level in the digital domain.

For example, assume that the analog gain value has been set to +30 dB and Gain

Compensation is now turned on. Under this condition, if you raise the analog gain value to

+45 dB, the level of the signal sent to the audio network will stay at +30 dB (that is, attenuated by -15 dB).

At this time, the gain of each signal input to the CL series console will be adjusted by the digital gain parameter of the CL series console.

If the FOH console and the monitoring console are sharing one I/O device, adjusting the analog gain on the FOH console will not affect the input level on the monitoring console, because the level of the signal on the audio network is maintained at a constant level.

However, please note that if the signal is distorted due to a high level of analog gain, you must first turn the Gain Compensation function off, set the gain to an appropriate input level, and then turn the function back on. If you try to lower the analog gain level while the Gain

Compensation function is on, the signal on the audio network will be amplified by the same amount due to the Gain Compensation function, and the signal will remain distorted.

NOTE

You can perform this operation by assigning the Gain Compensation on/off function to one of the

USER DEFINED keys.

Sending the signal from an input channel to the

STEREO/MONO bus

The STEREO bus and MONO bus are used to send signals to the main speakers. There are two ways to send signals to the STEREO bus or MONO bus: ST/MONO mode and LCR mode. You can select the mode individually for each channel. These two modes differ as follows.

ST/MONO mode

This mode sends signals from the input channel to the STEREO bus and to the MONO bus independently.

• Signals sent from an input channel to the STEREO bus and to the MONO bus can be switched on or off individually.

Input channels

• The panning of a signal sent from an input channel to the STEREO bus L/R is controlled by the TO ST PAN knob. (Signals sent to the MONO bus are not affected by this knob.)

• The left/right volume balance of a signal sent from an ST IN channel to the STEREO bus is controlled by this knob.

If PAN/BALANCE mode is set to PAN, you will be able to adjust the pan position of signals

sent to the STEREO bus L/R individually ( page 34 ).

LCR mode

This mode sends input channel signals to three buses (STEREO (L/R) and MONO (C)) simultaneously.

• Signals sent from an input channel to the STEREO bus and MONO bus will be switched on or off collectively.

• The CSR (Center Side Ratio) knob specifies the level ratio between signals sent from an input channel to the STEREO (L/R) bus and to the MONO (C) bus.

• The TO ST PAN knob/BALANCE knob specifies the level of signals sent from an input channel to the STEREO (L/R) bus and MONO (C) bus.

NOTE

If you want to monitor the signal of the STEREO bus or MONO bus through headphones or similar devices, press the MONITOR button in the Function Access Area to select

“LCR” as the monitor source before you continue with the following procedure.

Sending a signal from an input channel to a MIX/

MATRIX bus

The MIX buses are used mainly for the purpose of sending signals to foldback speakers on stage, or to external effect processors. The MATRIX buses are used to produce a mix that is independent of the STEREO bus or MIX buses, and is typically sent to a master recorder or to a backstage monitoring system.

You can send a signal from an input channel to a MIX/MATRIX bus in the following three ways.

Using the Selected Channel section

With this method, you use the knobs in the SELECTED CHANNEL section to adjust the send levels to the MIX/MATRIX buses. When using this method, signals sent from a specific input channel to all MIX/MATRIX buses can be adjusted collectively.

Using the Centralogic section

With this method, you use the multifunction knobs in the Centralogic section to adjust the level of signals sent to the MIX/MATRIX buses. When using this method, the signals sent from eight consecutive input channels to a specific MIX/MATRIX bus can be adjusted simultaneously.

Using the faders (SENDS ON FADER mode)

With this method, you switch the CL series unit to SENDS ON FADER mode, and use the faders on the top panel to adjust the level of signals sent to the MIX/MATRIX buses. When using this method, signals sent from all input channels to a specific MIX/MATRIX bus can be adjusted simultaneously.

Using the Selected Channel section

This section explains how to use the knobs in the SELECTED CHANNEL section to adjust the send levels of signals sent from a specific input channel to all MIX/MATRIX buses.

STEP

1.

Assign an output port to each MIX/MATRIX bus to which you want to send signals, and connect your monitor system, external effects processor, or other device to the

corresponding output port.

2.

Use the [SEL] keys on the top panel to select the input channel that will send signals

to the MIX/MATRIX bus.

3.

Press one of the knobs in the Selected Channel section.

4.

Turn on the ON button in the SEND field in the SELECTED CHANNEL VIEW screen.

5.

Turn on the TO MIX/MATRIX SEND ON/OFF button for the send-destination MIX

bus.

6. Use the MIX/MATRIX SEND LEVEL knob in the SELECTED CHANNEL section to adjust

the send levels to the MIX/MATRIX buses.

Input channels

SELECTED CHANNEL

VIEW screen

NOTE

• If you want to monitor the signal being sent to a specific MIX/MATRIX bus, use the Bank Select keys in the Centralogic section to access the corresponding MIX/MATRIX channel, and then press the appropriate [CUE] key in the Centralogic section.

MIX buses can be either a FIXED type whose send level is fixed, or a VARI type whose send level is variable. The MATRIX buses are all VARI type. You can switch between FIXED and

VARI types for each two adjacent odd/even-numbered MIX buses. To do so, press the SETUP button and then the BUS SETUP button to open the BUS SETUP window.

If the MIX bus is a FIXED type

A gray circle is displayed instead of the TO MIX SEND LEVEL knob, and you cannot adjust the send level.

For a VARI type MIX bus or a MATRIX bus

The TO MIX SEND LEVEL knob is displayed in the same color as the corresponding knob in the SELECTED CHANNEL section. In this case, you can use the corresponding knob in the SELECTED CHANNEL section to adjust the send level.

38

Reference Manual

If the MIX/MATRIX bus is a stereo bus

Input channels

You can link the main parameters of two adjacent odd/even-numbered MIX/MATRIX buses. If the send-destination MIX/MATRIX bus is assigned as stereo, the left knob of the two adjacent TO MIX/MATRIX SEND LEVEL knobs will operate as the TO MIX/MATRIX

PAN knob. (If BALANCE mode is selected in the TO STEREO/MONO window, it will operate as a BALANCE knob).

NOTE

• For a MONO channel, the right knob will adjust the common send level to the two MIX/MATRIX buses, and the left knob will adjust the panning between the two MIX/MATRIX buses. Rotating the left TO MIX/MATRIX SEND LEVEL knob counter-clockwise will increase the amount of signal sent to the odd-numbered MIX/MATRIX bus, and rotating it clockwise will increase the amount sent to the even-numbered MIX/MATRIX bus.

• For a STEREO channel, if BALANCE mode has been selected on the TO STEREO/MONO window, the right knob adjusts the common send level for the two MIX/MATRIX buses, and the left knob adjusts the volume balance of the left and right signals sent to the two MIX/MATRIX buses. Rotating the left TO MIX/MATRIX SEND LEVEL knob counter-clockwise will increase the amount of signal sent from the L-channel to the odd-numbered MIX/MATRIX bus, and rotating it clockwise will increase the amount sent from the R-channel to the even-numbered MIX/MATRIX bus. If PAN mode has been selected in the TO STEREO/MONO window, the left knob will function as the PAN knob. The right knob function will be the same as in BALANCE mode.

Using the Centralogic section

You can use the multifunction knobs in the Centralogic section to adjust the send level of signals sent from eight consecutive input channels to a specific MIX/MATRIX bus.

STEP

1. Assign an output port to each MIX/MATRIX bus to which you want to send signals, and connect your monitor system, external effects, or other device to the

corresponding output port.

2.

Use the Bank Select keys in the Centralogic section to select the channels that you

want to control.

3. In the OVERVIEW scree, press the TO MIX/MATRIX SEND LEVEL knob to select the

desired send-destination MIX/MATRIX bus, and then press it again.

4.

Use the SEND ON/OFF button in the MIX SEND/MATRIX SEND screen to turn the

signal on/off and to adjust the send level.

OVERVIEW screen

NOTE

• If you want to monitor a signal being sent to a specific MIX/MATRIX bus, use the Bank Select keys to assign the corresponding MIX channel to the Centralogic section, and then press the

EQ and Dynamics

Each input channel and output channel on a CL series console provides a four-band EQ and dynamics.

EQ can be used on all input channels and all output channels. An attenuator is provided immediately before the EQ, allowing you to attenuate the level of the input signal so that the

GAIN setting for EQ will not cause the signal to clip. Input channels also provide a high-pass filter that is independent of the EQ.

Input channels provide two dynamics processors: Dynamics 1 can be used as a gate, ducking device, compressor, or expander, while Dynamics 2 can be used as a compressor, hard compander, soft compander, or de-esser. Output channels provide one dynamics processor, which can be used as a compressor, expander, hard compander, or soft compander.

Channel Job

This chapter explains the DCA Group and Mute Group functions that enable you to control the level or muting of multiple channels together, the Channel Link function that links the parameters of multiple channels, and the operations that enable you to copy or move parameters between channels.

DCA group

CL series consoles feature sixteen DCA groups that enable you to control the level of multiple channels simultaneously.

DCA groups enable you to assign input and output channels to sixteen groups, so that the

Centralogic section faders 1 - 8 can be used to control the level of all channels in each group.

A single DCA fader will control the level of all input channels belonging to the same DCA group while maintaining the level difference between the channels. This provides a convenient way in which drum mics, for example, can be grouped.

Assigning channels to a DCA group

There are two ways to assign a channel to a DCA group.

• You can select a specific DCA group and then specify the channels to be assigned to the group, or

• You can select a specific channel and then specify the DCA group to which it should be assigned.

NOTE

• DCA group settings are saved as part of the scene.

• With CL V3.0 and later, you can now assign the Stereo/Mono bus master, Mix bus master, and

Matrix bus master channels to a DCA group on channels other than input channels. DCA groups were formerly used exclusively for input channels. However, with this new feature, you can use the DCA groups for output master channels, which enables for more flexible simultaneous controls.

Mute group

CL series consoles feature eight mute groups.

Mute groups enable you to use USER DEFINED keys [1]-[16] to mute or unmute multiple channels in a single operation. You can use this to cut out multiple channels simultaneously.

Mute groups 1 - 8 can be used with both input channels and output channels. Both types of channels can exist in the same group.

Assigning channels to mute groups

As with the DCA group, there are the following two ways to assign channels to mute groups.

• You can select a specific mute group first and then specify the channels to be assigned to the group, or

• You can select a specific channel and then specify the mute group to which it should be assigned.

Selecting the channels that will belong to a specific mute group

STEP

1.

In the Function Access Area, press the CH JOB button.

2.

Press the MUTE GROUP button in the CH JOB menu.

3. Use the mute group master buttons in the DCA/MUTE GROUP ASSIGN MODE

window to select the mute group to which you want to assign channels.

4.

Press the [SEL] key for the input channels/output channels that you want to operate

(multiple selections are allowed).

Channel Job

NOTE

You may assign a single channel to more than one mute group.

The DCA/MUTE GROUP field of the OVERVIEW screen indicates the mute group(s) to which each channel is assigned. Numbers that are lit red in the lower line of this field indicate the mute groups to which that channel belongs.

If the dimmer level is set to any level other than -

∞ dB, these numbers will light orange.

For a channel for which the Mute Safe function ( page 72 ) has been turned on, an

“S” indicator will light up green at the right end of the bottom row.

Function

Access Area

CH JOB

menu

NOTE

• Simply selecting a parameter in step 4 does not enable Recall Safe. To turn Recall Safe on or off, you must also perform the operation described in step 5.

• Channel Link ( page 76 ) and bus settings are not subject to Recall Safe; they will always be

reproduced in the recalled scene.

This means that if Recall Safe is enabled for one of several channels included in a link group or one of two channels set to stereo, the parameter settings of that channel may differ from those of the other channel(s). In such cases, the applicable parameter will be automatically re-linked the next time it is operated.

You can globally apply Recall Safe to channel links by using the global parameter.

• You can use the Recall Safe function along with the Focus Recall function ( page 94

). Channels

or parameters that are excluded from Recall operations by either Focus or Recall Safe will not be recalled.

• If you perform a Recall operation while holding down a [SEL] key, the Recall Safe settings for the corresponding channel will temporarily be enabled for that Recall operation.

Channel Link function

Channel Link is a function that links the operation of parameters such as fader and EQ between input and output channels. Two or more channels that are linked are called a

“link group”. There is no limit on the number of link groups you can create, or on the number and combinations of channels that can be included in these link groups. You can select the types of parameters to be linked for each link group. However, input channels and output channels cannot coexist on the same link group.

The parameters to be linked can be selected from the following choices.

For an input channel:

• Head amp settings

• Digital gain settings

• HPF settings

• EQ settings

• Dynamics 1 settings

• Dynamics 2 settings

• Insert on and insert point settings

• Direct Out on, Direct Out level, and Direct Out point settings

Using the Focus Recall function

“Focus Recall” is a function that lets you specify the parameters that will be updated when you recall a scene. For example, it is convenient to use this if you want to recall only the input channel settings of a certain scene.

NOTE

In contrast to Focus, the CL series console also features a

“Recall Safe” function that enables you to exclude specific channels and parameters from recall operations. However, while the Focus

Recall function is specified individually for each scene, the Recall Safe settings are applied to all scenes.

Monitor and Cue functions

The Monitor function lets you monitor various outputs through your nearfield monitors or headphones. Below the front pad of the CL series console is a PHONES out jack which always outputs the monitor source signal that you've selected for monitoring. By assigning the

MONITOR OUT L/R/C channels to the desired output jacks, you can also monitor the same signal through external speakers.

You can select the following signals as the monitor source.

• STEREO channel output signal

• MONO channel output signal

• STEREO + MONO channel output signal

• OMNI IN 1-2, 3-4, 5-6, 7-8 channel input signal (for monitoring each two channel pair)

• RECORDER PLAYBACK output signal

• A combination of up to eight MIX, MATRIX, STEREO, or MONO channel output signals, RECORDER PLAYBACK output signals, and OMNI IN 1-2, 3-4, 5-6, 7-8 input signals

The Cue function lets you check an individual selected channel/DCA group by temporarily monitoring it via MONITOR OUT or PHONES. When you press the [CUE] key on the top panel, the cue signal of the corresponding channel or DCA group is sent as the monitor output from the selected output port.

NOTE

The cue signal is sent to the same output destination as the monitor signal. Be aware that for this reason, the cue signal will no longer be sent to the connected monitor speakers if you turn off the

Monitor function. However, the cue signal will always be sent to the PHONES output jack.

The following diagram shows the cue/monitor signal flow.

• MONITOR SELECT

NOTE

You cannot turn on cue monitoring between different groups simultaneously. Normally, the group to which the most recently-pressed [CUE] key (or on-screen CUE/KEY IN CUE button) belongs will take priority, and the [CUE] keys for the previously-selected group will be defeated.

However, if you switch the Cue signal group in a specific order, the state of the [CUE] keys of the previously-selected group will be restored when the current Cue signal is defeated.

The following illustration shows the priority order of the [CUE] keys. After you have switched groups from lower to upper levels, if you then defeat cue

Talkback and Oscillator

Talkback is a function that sends the signal of a mic connected to the TALKBACK jack to the desired bus. This is used mainly to convey instructions from the operator or sound engineer to the performers and staff. If necessary, you can also use a mic connected to an INPUT jack on the I/O device or the OMNI IN jack on the CL unit for talkback.

CL series consoles also feature an oscillator that can output a sine wave or pink noise to the desired bus, so that you will be able to check external equipment or to test the acoustical response of the room or hall.

The diagram below shows the signal flow of the talkback and oscillator signals.

Graphic EQ, Parametric EQ, Effects, and

PREMIUM RACK

This chapter explains how to use the built-in graphic EQ, parametric EQ, effects, and Premium

Rack.

About the virtual rack

CL series consoles enable you to use the built-in graphic EQ (subsequently abbreviated as

“GEQ” ), parametric EQ (subsequently abbreviated as “PEQ” ), and effects/processors to modify signals. You can use two types of GEQ: 31BandGEQ which enables you to freely adjust thirty-one bands (frequency regions), and Flex15GEQ which enables you to adjust any fifteen of thirty-one bands. The 8Band PEQ allows you to freely adjust 8 bands (frequency regions), and also features an HPF, an LPF, and 3 notch filters.

You can also use 54 different effect types. The CL series consoles feature Premium Rack, which employs VCM technology. This technology models analog circuitry on a component level to faithfully reproduce amazing analog sounds. The Premium Rack offers seven types of processors.

In order to use a GEQ, PEQ, effect, or Premium Rack, you must mount the GEQ, PEQ, effect, or Premium Rack in each virtual rack, and patch the input and output of that rack to the desired signal route. In other words, the operation is just as though you had installed a signal processor or effect device in an actual rack, and used patch cords to connect it. You can mount a GEQ or PEQ instance in each of the sixteen racks 1-16 and EFFECT, an effect rack instance in each of the eight racks 1-8, and a Premium Rack instance in each of the eight racks 1-8.

Up to two channels of input and output can be used for each rack. (However, if the

“31BandGEQ” is mounted in a rack, there will be only one channel each for input and output.)

The figure below shows the signal flow for the virtual racks.

Graphic EQ, Parametric EQ, Effects, and PREMIUM RACK

NOTE

• In addition to the virtual racks for GEQ, PEQ, effects and Premium Rack, the CL console also provides racks for mounting an I/O device (such as an R series) or external head amps (Yamaha

AD8HR, SB168-ES, etc.). For details, refer to

I/O devices and external head amps

” ( page 154 ).

• With CL V1.7 and later, you can use the [SEL] key to switch channels in the EFFECT popup window, GEQ popup window, and PREMIUM RACK popup window.

Pressing a top panel [SEL] key in the EFFECT popup window while operating the effect parameter will switch to the window of the effect that is inserted in that channel. The same applies to the GEQ popup window and the PREMIUM RACK popup window. You can also switch from the EFFECT popup window to the GEQ popup window or PREMIUM RACK popup window. The following items change according to the target channel.

• Selected channel display in the Function Access Area

• Operated channel in synchronized CL Editor

If there are no insert settings on a channel that has been selected, a notification dialog box will be displayed.

About AUTOMIXER

Automixer is included as a standard feature on the CL series. Automixer searches for enabled mics and automatically optimizes gain distribution, for uses such as speeches without scripts.

This allows uniform system gain to be maintained among multiple mics, freeing the engineer from making constant fader adjustments.

Automixer operating principle

With the Dugan speech system used in Automixer, you can automatically adjust the automix gain for up to 16 mics used for speeches.

Channel control field

Gain (dB) in

Automix

When 1 person is speaking, the gain on the mic being used is immediately increased and the gain on all other mics is reduced. The same operation occurs even if another person is speaking.

Gain (dB) in

Automix

If 2 people are speaking at the same time, gain is automatically distributed so that the total gain is consistent across both mics, and the gain on the remaining mic is reduced.

The Dugan speech system functions differently from a limiter or auto level controller. When multiple people are speaking, the engineer can adjust the each level using the faders as normal. Even if nobody is speaking, the system searches for mic audio and automatically distributes gain. Therefore, faders can be left in their raised positions.

Channel display

The auto mix gain meter for each channel and man (yellow), auto (green), and mute (red) settings are shown for channels 1-8 and channels 9-16.

If you select the channel 1-8 or 9-16 region, the display channel for the channel control field will switch to 1-8 or 9-16.

(For 8ch Automixer, only channels 1-8 are shown.)

weight

Adjusts the correlative sensitivity between input channels. When there is no input, adjust the weight setting so that all auto mix gain meters are at about the same level. For example, if you can hear noise near one mic (such as noise from a computer ventilation fan or an air conditioner), you can suppress the noise by reducing the weight setting for that channel.

To change the channel weight settings, use the [TOUCH AND TURN] knob to adjust the weight slider.

Automixer calculates the ratio of input level for specific channels for all input mixes in the group. The following example explains the weight control mechanism.

When increasing the weight setting in one channel

• The value displayed in the auto mix gain meter for that channel increases, while the values for other channels are reduced.

• Channels with high weight setting values receive a higher automix gain than other channels.

When reducing the weight setting in one channel

• The value displayed in the auto mix gain meter for that channel decreases, while the values for other channels are increased.

• When speaking into multiple mics at the same time, it is difficult to distinguish between different mics.

group

Each channel can be assigned to three groups (a/b/c).

This group function is convenient for the following uses.

Using multiple rooms: Assign the mics in each room to their own groups, and use a different Automixer for each.

Stereo pan: Assign mics panned to left, right and center to groups a, b, and c, to maintain a stable stereo field.

5

override

If you turn on the OVERRIDE button in the master field, the channel will switch to man mode or mute mode according to the settings for that channel's override button.

• When the channel's override button is on, the mode for that channel will switch to man when the master OVERRIDE button is turned on.

• When the channel's override is off, the mode for that channel will switch to mute when the master OVERRIDE button is turned on.

• When the master OVERRIDE button is turned off, the channel will return to its previous mode.

The override function is convenient when the moderator of a panel discussion wants to control the system.

Follow the instructions below to change the settings.

1.

Turn on the override button on the moderator's channel.

2.

Turn off the override button on all other channels.

Editing the internal effects

The internal effects of the CL series console can be mounted in EFFECT racks 1-8, and patched to an output channel's output or input channel's input, or inserted into a channel. For each effect mounted in a rack, you can choose one of 54 types of effect.

With the default settings, the signals from MIX channels 17-24 are input to racks 1-8, and from the racks are then output to ST IN 1-8 (L/R).

NOTE

Some effect types can be mounted only in racks 1, 3, 5 or 7.

To use an internal effect via send and return, assign the output of a MIX channel to the input of the effect, and assign the output of the effect to an input channel. In this case, the corresponding output channel is used as a master channel for the effect send, and the input channel is used as an effect return channel.

The internal effects fall into two categories;

“STEREO type” (2-in/2-out) effects that process the L/R channel input signals independently, and

“MIX type” (1-in/2-out) effects that mix the two channels before processing them.

If signals are assigned to both the L and R inputs of an effect, the way in which the L/R channels are processed will depend on whether a Stereo effect type or a Mix effect type is selected, as follows.

Using an internal effect via send and return

This section explains how to use a MIX bus as an effect send bus and a ST IN channel as an effect return channel, so that the effect can be used in a send and return configuration.

NOTE

• If you want to use a MIX bus as an effect send bus, select “VARI” as the bus type. This will allow you to adjust the send level separately for each input channel.

• If you want to use the input to an effect in stereo, it can be convenient to assign the send-

destination MIX bus to stereo. (For details on bus assignments, refer to page 51 .)

STEP

1.

Follow steps 1-3 described in “ Virtual rack operations ” ( page 125 ), to mount an

effect in a rack.

2.

Press the INPUT PATCH L button in the VIRTUAL RACK window, and select a MIX

channel as the input source for the rack ( page 125

).

3. Press the OUTPUT PATCH L button in the VIRTUAL RACK window, and select the L

input of a ST IN channel as the output destination for the rack ( page 125

).

4.

Adjust the send level from each channel in the TO MIX/TO MATRIX field in the

OVERVIEW screen.

5. Adjust the master level of the effect send of the MIX channel you selected as the

input source for the rack.

6.

Adjust the effect return level of the ST IN channel you selected as the output

destination for the rack.

Graphic EQ, Parametric EQ, Effects, and PREMIUM RACK

NOTE

• If you're using a stereo source, assign the L/R signals of the stereo MIX channels to the L/R inputs of the rack.

• If you're using the output of the effect in stereo, assign the R input of the ST IN channel selected in step 3 to the R output of the rack.

• You can select more than one output destination for the effect.

• For more information on setting the effect parameters, refer to “

Editing the internal effect parameters

” ( page 139 ).

Adjusting the effect send level of a input channel

In the TO MIX/TO MATRIX field in the OVERVIEW screen, press and select the TO MIX SEND

LEVEL knob for the MIX bus set as the input source for the rack, and use the multifunction knob to adjust the send level of the signal sent from each channel to that MIX bus.

NOTE

• If a MATRIX bus is shown in the TO MIX/TO MATRIX field, use the [MIX 1-16] key or the [MIX 17-

24/MATRIX] key in the SELECTED CHANNEL section to select the MIX bus at the input source for the rack.

• When adjusting the effect send level, make sure that the send level from the ST IN channel you selected as the output destination for the rack to the corresponding MIX bus is set to 0. If you raise this send level, the output of the effect will be returned to the input of the same effect, possibly causing oscillation.

• If you press the knob once again, the MIX SEND window (8ch) for the send-destination MIX bus will appear. This window contains on/off switches for the signals sent from each channel to the

corresponding bus, and lets you select the send point (PRE or POST) ( page 38 ).

Using the Tap Tempo function

“Tap tempo” is a function that lets you specify the delay time of a delay effect or the modulation speed of a modulation effect by striking a key at the desired interval. The Tap Tempo function can be used for delay-type and modulation-type effects in which the BPM parameter is included, and specify the delay time or modulation speed. To use the Tap function, you must assign Tap Tempo to a USER DEFINED key, and then operate that USER DEFINED key.

NOTE

• If the EFFECT EDIT popup window used to set TAP TEMPO is open, this popup window is not displayed.

• With CL V3.0 and later, the delay value (msec) is also shown in the popup window.

Effects and tempo synchronization

Some effects of the CL series can be synchronized with the tempo. There are two such types of effect: delay-type effects and modulation-type effects. For delay-type effects, the delay time will change according to the tempo. For modulation-type effects, the frequency of the modulation signal will change according to the tempo.

Parameters related to tempo synchronization

The following five parameters are related to tempo synchronization.

1) SYNC 2) NOTE 3) TEMPO 4) DELAY 5) FREQ.

SYNC: ..............................This is the on/off switch for tempo synchronization.

NOTE and TEMPO: .........These are the basic parameters for tempo synchronization.

DELAY and FREQ.: ..........DELAY is the delay time, and FREQ. is the frequency of the modulation signal. These directly affect the way in which the effect sound will change. DELAY is relevant only for delay-type effects, and FREQ. is relevant only for modulation-type effects.

How the parameters are related

Tempo synchronization calculates the DELAY (or FREQ.) value

*a from the TEMPO and

NOTE.

Turn SYNC ON

Change NOTE DELAY (or FREQ.) will be set

In this case, the DELAY (or FREQ.) value is calculated as follows.

DELAY (or FREQ.) = NOTE x 4 x (60/TEMPO)

Change TEMPO DELAY (or FREQ.) will be set

In this case, the DELAY (or FREQ.) value is calculated as follows.

143

Graphic EQ, Parametric EQ, Effects, and PREMIUM RACK

DELAY = NOTE x 4 x (60/TEMPO) sec

FREQ. = (TEMPO/60) / (NOTE x 4) Hz

Example 1: When SYNC=ON, DELAY=250 ms, TEMPO=120, you change NOTE from

8th note to quarter note

DELAY= new NOTE x 4 x (60/TEMPO)

= (1/4) x 4 x (60/120)

= 0.5 (sec)

= 500 ms

Thus, the DELAY will change from 250 ms to 500 ms.

Example 2: When SYNC=ON, DELAY=250 ms, NOTE=8th note, you change TEMPO from 120 to 121

DELAY= NOTE x 4 x (60/new TEMPO)

= (1/8) x 4 x (60/121)

= 0.2479 (sec)

= 247.9 (ms)

Thus, the TEMPO will change from 250 ms to 247.9 ms.

*a Rounded values are used for the calculation results.

Special characteristics of the TEMPO parameter

The TEMPO parameter has the following characteristics that are unlike other parameters.

• Value shared with all effects (However, this applies only if SYNC is ON and if the MIDI CLK button is ON when MIDI clock is input to the MIDI IN jack.)

• You cannot store it to or recall it from the Effects Library. (You can store it to and recall it from a Scene.)

This means that the TEMPO value may not necessarily be the same when an effect is recalled as when that effect was stored. Here is an example.

Store the effect: TEMPO=120



Change TEMPO to 60



TEMPO=60



Recall the effect: TEMPO=60

Normally when you change the TEMPO, the DELAY (or FREQ.) will be re-set accordingly.

However if the DELAY (or FREQ.) were changed, the effect would sound differently when recalled than when it was stored. To prevent the effect from changing in this way between store and recall, the CL series does not update the DELAY (or FREQ.) value when an effect is recalled, even if the TEMPO is no longer the same as when that effect was stored.

* The NOTE parameter is calculated based on the following values.

= 1/48 = 1/24 = 1/16 = 1/12 = 3/32 = 1/8 = 1/6

= 1/4 = 3/8 = 1/2 = 3/4 = 1/1 = 2/1 = 3/16

Portico 5033

Portico 5033 is a processor that emulates a 5-band analog EQ developed by Rupert Neve

Designs (RND). 5033EQ features a unique tone control response. It inherited the history of the

“1073,” which was praised as one of the greatest devices developed by Mr. Rupert Neve.

Yamaha's VCM technology has modeled the EQ to the last detail, including the input/output transformer that was designed by Rupert Neve himself. As a result, this processor model produces musically high-quality sound even when bypassed. Its response features unique effects. For example, if the Lo setting is cut, the low range becomes tight, and if the Hi setting is raised, the desired range will be boosted without hurting your ears.

Portico 5043

Portico 5043, like Portico 5033, is a processor that emulates RND's analog compressor. The actual 5043 compressor is equipped with the same input/output transformer as that of the

5033 EQ, delivering a natural, analog-like tonality and effect. It enables you to obtain a range of results from hard compression to natural sound, and is suitable for a broad range of audio sources ranging from drums to vocals. The most notable feature of this model is that you can switch the gain reduction type. You can choose either an FF (Feed-Forward) circuit type

(which is the current mainstream), or an FB (Feed-Back) circuit which was typically used in vintage compressors. This allows you to create sounds with various characteristics as appropriate for your applications.

U76

U76 is a processor that emulates a popular vintage compressor used in a wide range of situations. This processor does not provide the threshold parameter that is found on conventional compressors. Instead, the intensity of compression is determined by the balance between the input gain and the output gain. The

“All mode” setting for the RATIO parameter allows you to create a heavily-compressed sound that is typical of this model. It produces an aggressive tonal character with a rich addition of overtones.

EQ-1A

EQ-1A is a processor that emulates a famous passive-type vintage EQ. It features a unique style of operation, allowing you to individually boost and attenuate (cut) each of two frequency ranges (high and low). Its frequency response is utterly unlike that of a conventional EQ, producing a unique character that is distinctive of this model. The input/output circuits and vacuum tubes produce a tonal character that is highly musical and well-balanced.

Dynamic EQ

Dynamic EQ is a newly-developed equalizer that does not emulate any specific model of equalizer. The sidechain has a filter that extracts the same frequency band as the EQ. This allows you to apply EQ in the same way as you might apply a compressor or expander to a specific frequency region, causing the EQ gain to vary dynamically only when a specific frequency region of the input signal becomes too high or too low. For example you could use this on a vocal sound as a de-esser, so that EQ is applied to a specific frequency band only when sibilance or high-frequency consonants reach an unpleasant level, thus preserving a natural sound that does not impair the original tonal character. Two full-band Dynamic EQs are provided, enabling you to process a wide range of audio sources.

Buss Comp 369

Buss Comp 369 emulates a standard bus compressor that has been used in recording studios and broadcasting stations since the 1980s. It produces a smooth and natural compression that does not interfere with the expression in the source signal, in contrast with the aggressive compression of the U76. Buss Comp 369 includes both a compressor and a limiter. You can use both functions individually or in combination, according to your needs. Further, the rich overtones generated by the audio transformers on the input/output circuits and the discrete

Class A amplifier add depth and unity to the sound quality.

Using an external head amp

If an I/O card (such as an MY16-ES64 card) supports the remote protocol of an external head amp in the CL's slot, you will be able to remotely control from the CL console some parameters of the external head amp (Yamaha SB168-ES or AD8HR), such as phantom power (+48V) on/off status, gain, and HPF.

For details on the I/O card settings, refer to the Owner's Manual for the I/O card.

Connecting the CL series console to an AD8HR

To remotely control the AD8HR from the CL series console, install an MY16-ES64

EtherSound card in Slot 1 on the CL unit, then use an Ethernet cable to connect the CL unit to the NAI48-ES. Then, connect the HA REMOTE connector on the NAI48-ES to the HA

REMOTE 1 connector on the AD8HR using an RS422 D-sub 9-pin cable. This connection enables you to remotely control the AD8HR from the CL series console.

To transmit audio signals (input to the AD8HR) to the CL series console, connect the DIGITAL

OUT A (or B) connector on the AD8HR to the AES/EBU connector on the NAI48-ES using a

D-sub 25-pin AES/EBU cable. Signals will be sent or received between the NAI48-ES and the

CL series console via the MY16-ES64 card.

Alternatively, you can use a

“daisy chain” connection to remotely control multiple AD8HR units simultaneously. To do this, connect the AD8HR's HA REMOTE 2 connector to the second

AD8HR's HA REMOTE 1 connector. If you use the NAI48-ES, you can connect up to six

AD8HR units. In this case, to input AD8HR's audio signals into the CL series console, install two MY16-EX cards on the CL unit since each slot on the CL unit accepts up to 16 channel signals. Then, connect each two of the third and subsequent AD8HRs to each AES/EBU connector using a D-sub 25-pin AES/EBU cable.

MIDI

This chapter explains how to transmit MIDI messages from an external device to the CL series console to control the CL console's parameters, and how to send out MIDI messages from the CL console as you operate the unit.

The following illustration shows an example of connecting the MIDI IN/OUT connectors to transmit and receive MIDI messages.

MIDI IN MIDI OUT MIDI IN MIDI OUT

External device

CL5

MIDI functionality on the CL series console

The CL series console can use MIDI to perform the following operations.

Program Change transmission and reception

When you execute a specific event (scene/effect library recall) on the CL series console, a

Program Change message (a number that is assigned to the event) can be transmitted to an external device. Conversely, the corresponding event can be executed when a Program

Change message is received from an external device.

Control Change transmission and reception

When you execute a specific event (fader, knob, or key operation) on the CL series console, the corresponding Control Change message can be transmitted to an external device.

Conversely, events can be executed when Control Change messages are received from an external device. This allows you to record fader and key operations on a MIDI sequencer or other external device, and play them back later.

Parameter Change (SysEx) transmission and reception

When specific events (fader, knob, or key operations, changes in system settings or user settings) are executed,

“Parameter Change” SysEx (system exclusive) messages can be transmitted to an external device. Conversely, events can be executed when Parameter

Changes are received from an external device.

Using this capability, CL operations can be recorded and played back on a MIDI sequencer or other external device. In addition, changes in system and user settings can be received and executed by another CL console.

165

Using control changes to control parameters

You can use MIDI Control Change messages to control specified events (fader/knob operations, [ON] key on/off operations etc.) on the CL series console. This capability can be used to record fader and key operations on a MIDI sequencer or other external device, and play back this data later.

You can use Control Changes to control events in either of the following two ways.

Using Control Changes

This method uses typical Control Changes (control numbers 1-31, 33-95, 102-119). You can freely assign an event to each control number.

Using NRPN (Non Registered Parameter Number)

This method uses a special type of Control Change messages called NRPN.

NRPN uses Control Change numbers 99 and 98 to specify the MSB (Most Significant Byte) and LSB (Least Significant Byte) of the parameter number, and subsequently-transmitted

Control Change messages of Control Change number 6 (or 6 and 38) to specify the value of that parameter.

The event assigned to each combination of MSB and LSB is pre-defined, and cannot be changed.

NOTE

For details on the events assigned to NRPN messages, refer to the data list at the end of this manual.

Using Parameter Changes to control parameters

On the CL series console, you can use a type of system exclusive messages called

“Parameter Changes” to control specific events (fader/knob operations, [ON] key on/off operations, system and user settings, etc.) as an alternative to using Control Changes or

NRPN messages.

For details on the Parameter Changes that can be transmitted and received, refer to the data list at the end of this manual.

STEP

1.

Connect the CL series console to an external device.

2.

As described in “ Basic MIDI settings ” ( page 165

), select the ports and MIDI channels

(device number) that will be used to transmit/receive parameter changes.

3. Use the Tx button and Rx button of the PARAMETER CHANGE field in the MIDI

SETUP page to turn on parameter change transmission/reception.

NOTE

• Parameter changes include a “device number” that specifies the transmitting or receiving device.

The transmit (Tx) channel and receive (Rx) channel specified on the MIDI SETUP page are used as the device number.

• Please be aware that if the device number included in the transmitted Parameter Change does not match the device number of the receiving CL console, the message will be ignored.

• Do not turn Parameter Change and Control Change transmission/reception on at the same time.

Otherwise, a large amount of data will flood the MIDI port and may cause overflows or other problems.

About the USB memory recorder

The CL series console features a USB memory recorder function that lets you easily record internal audio signals to a USB flash drive, or play back audio files recorded on a USB flash drive.

As the file format for recording, the CL series console supports MP3 (MPEG-1 Audio Layer-

3). For playback, it supports MP3 as well as WMA (Windows Media Audio) and AAC (MPEG-

4 AAC) files. However, DRM (Digital Rights Management) is not supported.

By using the USB memory recorder, the output from the STEREO bus or a MIX bus can be recorded to a USB flash drive, or background music or sound effects saved on the USB flash drive can be played back via an assigned input channel.

Recording or playing back using a computer DAW

If you plan to add DAW software, such as Steinberg Nuendo, to an audio network that includes a CL console and I/O devices, you must use Dante Virtual Soundcard (DVS) driver software.

DVS works as an audio interface, making it possible to transmit signals between a DAW and an audio network (that includes a CL series console and I/O devices). In this way, you will be able to make multi-track recordings of live performances or use live recordings that were made a day earlier for a virtual sound check.

This section explains the steps required when adding DAW software to an audio network.

Required devices and software

• CL series console and I/O devices

• A computer (Windows or Mac) equipped with an Ethernet port that supports a Giga-bit

Ethernet (GbE) network; DAW software

• A GbE-compatible network switch

• CAT5e cable

• Dante Virtual Soundcard driver software

• Dante Controller control software

NOTE

• You must have a license ID to use Dante Virtual Soundcard. A sheet with the DVS token needed to acquire the license ID is included in the CL unit package.

• The latest information about the Dante Virtual Soundcard and the Dante Controller is available at the following website: http://proaudio.yamaha.co.jp

Reference Manual

Word clock settings

In a Dante network, the master device supplies accurate word clock to other devices on the network. If the master device is removed from the network or breaks down, another device will automatically take over as the clock master.

To make this setting, in the Function Access Area, press the SETUP button, then the WORD

CLOCK/SLOT SETUP button to access the WORD CLOCK/SLOT SETUP window.

Setting up Dante Virtual Soundcard

Install Dante Virtual Soundcard (DVS) and

Dante Controller in the computer that you want to use for audio recording.

Make the following settings before turning

DVS on.

• Connect the GbE-compatible network port of the computer to a GbE-compatible network switch.

• Configure the computer to obtain an IP address automatically

(this is the default setting).

• Set the audio format.

(Example: 48kHz, 24 bit)

• Set the Dante latency. (Use a high setting to ensure stability when using multiple channels.)

• In the Advanced settings, select the number of channels to be used for recording and playback (the default is 8 x 8).

Dante Accelerator settings

After mounting a Dante Accelerator card on the computer, install the Dante Accelerator Driver and make the following settings. For information about how to install the driver, refer to the

Installation Guide included with the driver.

Use a network cable to connect the Dante jack on the Dante Accelerator card to the Dante network, and then connect the computer's network port to the same network.

Configure the computer to obtain an IP address automatically (this is the default setting).

NOTE

For more information about selecting a computer for remote control from a CL series console,

Reference Manual

Setting up Dante Controller

Connect the network port of the computer to a GbE-compatible network switch. Configure the computer to obtain an IP address automatically (this is the default setting).

You must make the following settings for Dante Controller.

• For multi-track recording, patch audio signals from the I/O device to DVS or the Dante

Accelerator card.

• For virtual sound check: Patch audio signals in such a way that they will be output from the computer to the Dante audio network, then routed to the channels on the CL console.

( page 155 ).

The following example shows Dante Controller settings for when channels 1-16 of an I/O device are patched to DVS.

Recorder

Setting up DAW software

You must make driver settings in your DAW software. You must make driver settings in your

DAW software. In the device setting window, select

“Dante Virtual Sound Card-ASIO” (“Dante” for Mac) or

“Yamaha AIC128-D” as the sound card (or audio driver) used for input/output.

Some DAW software may require internal patching for the driver and the DAW software. For more information, refer to the DAW software manual.

Setting up Nuendo Live

If you install the

“Yamaha Console Extension” software for linking Nuendo Live to a console, and then start up Nuendo Live and create a new project, tracks corresponding to the number of channels specified in DVS will be created automatically, and the channel names and colors from the CL series console will automatically be assigned as each track name.

Audio recording and playback

After you have made driver settings in your DAW software, you can record and play back audio.

For multi-track recording, set the input ports for the tracks of the DAW software to the ports that receive audio signals from the I/O devices.

For a virtual sound check, you must route recorded audio signals to the input channels on the

CL console. To do so, use Dante Controller to patch the signals so that the signals will be output from the DAW software to DANTE 1-64 on the CL console. It may be convenient for you later if you store two sets of the DANTE INPUT PATCH settings in the library: one set for routing audio signals from the I/O devices, and another set for routing audio signals from DAW software. In this way, you will be able to switch between patch settings without starting Dante

Controller. In addition, you will be able to patch a specific channel (such as a vocal) to the I/

O device to monitor during a virtual sound check.

In this case, you'll need to switch the DANTE INPUT PATCH settings of the CL series console depending on whether you're performing multitrack recording or multitrack playback. If you've

saved these different sets of settings in the DANTE INPUT PATCH LIBRARY ( page 155 ),

you'll be able to switch between them conveniently.

NOTE

Please refer to the Dante Controller manual for more information about operations and settings of the Dante Controller.

Custom fader bank functions

Custom fader bank settings can be stored/recalled for individual scenes.

Custom fader bank settings are stored in scene data in separate regions for each model.

Custom fader bank settings

CL5 CL3 CL1

Recall Store Recall Store Recall Store

CL5 console CL3 console CL1 console

NOTE

Custom fader bank settings differ between models, and are not compatible. For example, custom fader bank settings included in scenes stored in CL5 cannot be reproduced if that same scene is recalled in CL3 or CL1. You must create and store custom fader bank settings in CL3 and CL1.

Precautions for when Loading Console Data

In V2.0 and later, custom fader bank settings are not only included in user settings, but in scene data as well. The custom fader bank settings that are called up vary depending on the logged-in user, the type of the loaded data, and the version. Please note the following points:

• If you load console data of the ALL type as Administrator, the custom fader bank settings for the saved Administrator are called up.

If you load ALL data as Guest or another user, the custom fader bank settings for the saved current scene are called up.

• If you load ALL data that was saved in CL V1.70 or earlier, since scenes do not include custom fader bank settings, the custom fader bank settings for the current scene when the load was performed are applied to all scenes. Therefore, before loading ALL data, we recommend that you either change users to set the custom fader bank to the desired setting, or that you enable Recall Safe for the custom fader bank.

Console Lock

You can temporarily prohibit console operations in order to prevent unwanted operation. This setting disables operations of the panel, so that controllers cannot be operated by an accidental touch or by an unauthorized third party while the operator is taking a break.

If a password is set for the currently logged-in user, that password will be used for the Console

Lock function. When the Console Lock function is enabled, the CONSOLE LOCK screen will appear and all controllers (excluding the MONITOR LEVEL knob) will become inoperable.

Setup

NOTE

• If you have forgotten the password, refer to “

Initializing the unit to factory default settings

( page 245 ).

• The Guest cannot set a password.

• Even while the console is locked, control from an external device via MIDI or CL Editor will still operate as usual.

Locking the console

STEP

1.

In the Function Access Area, press the SETUP button.

2.

In the SETUP screen, press the CONSOLE LOCK button.

Specifying the CONSOLE LOCK screen image

If an image file has been saved on the USB flash drive, you can view that image on the

CONSOLE LOCK screen.

In the SAVE/LOAD window, specify the image file that you want to display, and then load it from the USB flash drive. For details about loading files from the USB flash drive, refer to

Loading a file from a USB flash drive

” ( page 214 ).

NOTE

Supported image file format is BMP in 800 x 600 pixels and 16/24/32-bit, but they will be converted into 16-bit for display.

Setup

Saving and loading setup data to and from a USB

flash drive

You can connect a commercially-available USB flash drive to the USB connector located to the right of the display, and save the internal settings and user authentication keys of the CL series console to the USB flash drive or load them from the USB flash drive.

CAUTION

An ACCESS indicator is shown in the Function Access Area while data is being accessed (saved, loaded, or deleted). During this time, do not disconnect the USB port or power-off the CL unit.

Doing so may damage the data in the flash drive.

NOTE

• Operation is guaranteed only for USB flash drives.

• The operation of USB flash drives with capacities of up to 32GB has been verified. (However, this does not necessarily guarantee the operation of all USB flash drives.) The FAT16 and FAT32 formats are supported. A USB flash drive with a capacity of 4GB or larger will be formatted in

FAT32, and a USB flash drive with a capacity of 2GB or smaller will be formatted in FAT16.

Recovering after overcurrent at the USB port

Even if the connection with the USB device was stopped because an overcurrent condition occurred at the USB port, it is possible to use the USB device again without turning the console power off and back on.

Setup

Word clock and slot settings

“Word clock” refers to the clock that provides the basis of timing for digital audio signal processing. To send and receive digital audio signals between devices, those devices must be synchronized to the same word clock. If digital audio signals are transferred in an unsynchronized state, the data may not be transmitted or received correctly, and noise may be present in the signal, even if the sampling rates are the same.

Specifically, you must first decide which device will transmit the reference word clock for the entire system (the word clock master), and then set the remaining devices (the word clock slaves) so that they synchronize to the word clock master.

If you wish to use the CL series console as a word clock slave that is synchronized to the word clock supplied from an external device, you must specify the appropriate clock source (the port through which the word clock is obtained).

This section explains how to select the clock source that the CL series console will use.

STEP

1.

In the Function Access Area, press the SETUP button.

2. In the SYSTEM SETUP field of the SETUP screen, press the WORD CLOCK/SLOT

SETUP button.

NOTE

• If sample rate pull-up/down has been specified in the Dante

Controller application, this area indicates the change in the sample rate as a percentage, such as -4.0%, -0.1%, +0.1%, and

+4.1667%.

• To change the master clock when sample rate pull-up/down has been specified, disable the pull- up/down in the Dante Controller, change the master clock, then specify pull-up/down again.

2

Master clock select buttons

Use the buttons to select the clock source that you want to use as the word clock master from the following options:

• INT 48 k

• INT 44.1 k

The CL console internal clock (sampling rate 48 kHz or 44.1 kHz) will be the clock source.

• WORD CLOCK IN

The word clock supplied from the WORD CLOCK IN jack on the rear panel of the console will be used as the clock source.

Setup

• DANTE 48 k

• DANTE 44.1 k

The word clock supplied from the Dante jack on the rear panel of the console will be used as the clock source.

NOTE

With CL V2.03 and later, if you initialize the console to factory settings, the default value for the word clock is set to DANTE 48k. This allows you to synchronize word clock even when using multiple CL and QL consoles at their default settings.

• SLOT 1-3

The word clock supplied via a digital I/O card installed in a console slot will be used as the clock source. Word clock can be selected in pairs for each slot.

3

Clock status Indicator

Indicates the console's status as a master or a slave in the Dante audio network.

NOTE

When is displayed and the specified word clock is not synchronized with a device acting as a Dante master, the audio might cut out.

4

Clock status display

Indicates the status of synchronization with the master clock for each clock source. Each indicator is explained below:

• LOCKED (light blue)

Indicates that a clock synchronized with the selected clock source is being input. If an external device is connected to the corresponding connector or slot, input/output is occurring properly between that device and the CL series console. If the sampling frequency is close, this status may be displayed even if not synchronized.

• LOCKED, BUT NOT SYNC'ED (yellow)

A valid clock is being input, but is not synchronized with the selected clock source. If an external device is connected to the corresponding connector, input/output cannot occur correctly between that device and the CL series console.

• SRC ON (green)

This is a special status that applies only to SLOT1-3. It indicates that SCR (Sample Rate

Converter) is enabled for the corresponding channel. This means that even if the signal is not synchronized, normal input/output with the CL series console is occurring.

• UNLOCKED (red)

A valid clock is not being input. If an external device is connected to the corresponding connector, input/output cannot occur correctly between that device and the CL series console.

219

Reference Manual

• UNKNOWN (black)

This indicates that the clock status cannot be detected because no external device is connected or because there is no valid clock input. You will be able to select this connector/slot, but successful synchronization cannot occur until a valid connection is established.

NOTE

• If the indicator for the selected clock does not turn light blue, make sure that the external device is correctly connected, and that the external device is set to transmit clock data.

• Noise may occur at the output jacks when the word clock setting is changed. To protect your speaker system, be sure to turn down the power amp volume before changing the word clock setting.

• If you attempt to select a channel (for which SRC is on) as the word clock source, a message will appear, warning you that the sampling rate converter will be disabled.

Digital I/O card

In this example, up to twenty four buses chosen from MIX bus 1-24, MATRIX bus 1-8,

STEREO bus (L/R), MONO (C) bus, and CUE bus (L/R) can be shared, and the mixed signals transmitted from the cascade master CL unit. (If you use three 16-ch digital I/O cards, all buses can be shared among the devices.) When the required settings are made for the cascade slave and for the cascade master, the bus signals of the cascade slave will be sent via the slot to the buses of the cascade master, and the combined signals of both buses will be output from the cascade master. If the Cascade Link function is enabled, the specified operations or parameter changes performed on either CL series console will be followed by the other CL console.

You must specify bus assignments for each slot or channel on each CL unit. The procedure below is given separately for the cascade slave and the cascade master.

Setup

Using cascade connections

Using multiple CL series consoles, or a CL console and an external mixing console (such as a Yamaha PM5D) in a cascade connection enables buses to be shared among the devices.

This can be convenient if you want to use an external mixer to increase the number of inputs.

This section explains cascade connections and operation, using an example in which two CL units are connected in a cascade configuration.

About cascade connections

To cascade two CL series consoles, you must first install digital I/O cards in the appropriate slots, and connect the output ports of the sending unit (the cascade slave) to the input ports of the receiving unit (the cascade master).

The following illustration shows an example in which three eight-channel digital I/O cards for each unit are installed in the cascade slave CL unit and in the cascade master CL unit. The

DIGITAL OUT jacks of the sending unit are connected to the DIGITAL IN jacks of the receiving unit.

220

Reference Manual

NOTE

• In Surround mode, you cannot use cascade output on MIX buses1-6. In addition, if you have selected 5.1 SOLO in CUE mode, you cannot monitor CUE from the cascade slave at the cascade master.

• If you are making a cascade connection between the CL unit and the PM5D, you can use the CL unit as the cascade slave by setting the PM5D's CASCADE IN PORT SELECT to a slot. However, only the audio signals will be cascaded, and the control signals cannot be linked.

• You can also use an AD/DA card to make cascade connections with an analog mixer.

• There is no limit to the number of units that can be cascade-connected, but the signal delay at the cascade slave will increase in accordance with the number of units from the cascade master.

• When the CONSOLE ID is set to OFF, all the mounted devices will be “virtual.”

You can edit HA GAIN and other settings for R series units, but notification of the settings will not be sent to the device. This is the same as when the devices are not connected.

Setting the Dante audio network latency

An appropriate latency setting for signals transmitted over a Dante audio network varies depending on the network connection method and size. This section explains how to set an appropriate latency setting depending on the connection method of Dante-enabled devices that are connected to the CL series console.

Relationship between the switches and the number of hops

An appropriate latency setting on a Dante audio network varies depending on the number of hops in the network. One hop is the step from one router (switch) to the next. You count the number of hops starting from the master device to the most distant device (assuming that all devices are connected in series).

Switches mean switching hubs as well as the switches that are built into CL series consoles and I/O devices. Set the latency value based on the number of hops. The following table shows typical latency settings based on the number of hops.

Number of hops

Up to 3

Up to 5

Up to 10

Up to 20

21 or more (or if a problem occurs)

Latency (ms)

0.25

0.5

1.0

2.0

5.0

NOTE

• Depending on network conditions, you may want to raise the latency value even if the number of hops is small.

• If a problem occurs, select 5.0 ms so that you will be able to identify whether the latency setting is the cause of the problem.

Setup

NOTE

• If you change the SECONDARY PORT, you must also change the method of connection between the CL series console and the I/O devices. For example if the connections used for the

REDUNDANT setting are left as they are when you change the setting to DAISY CHAIN, it will become impossible to send and receive audio. Be sure to disconnect the cables before you change the setting.

• The CONSOLE ID and SECONDARY PORT settings will not be changed even if you initialize the

CL series console.

• When the CONSOLE ID is OFF or is set to 2, 3, or 4 for a CL series console, the console's BIT/

LATENCY will not change even if the BIT/LATENCY is changed in the DANTE SETUP window for the CL series console within a network for which the CONSOLE ID is set to 1.

Reference Manual

NOTE

• If there is one I/O device, set the I/O device's UNIT ID to “1.”

• If multiple devices are connected, assign the ID numbers so that there is no conflict between devices.

• For devices other than the R series, it is possible for devices of differing models to be assigned to the same ID as an R series unit or the same ID as a different model of device. However, since the I/O device input/output port screen shows the UNIT ID, this will make it difficult to distinguish between the units, so we recommend that whenever possible, you avoid allowing the ID numbers to overlap.

• If you have a device whose UNIT ID or device label cannot be changed from its panel or its edit screen etc. (such as the Dante-MY16-AUD card or Dante Accelerator), and you want to use that device as a SUPPORTED DEVICE, you must change its device label via Dante Controller.

• An I/O device will be recognized as a SUPPORTED DEVICE if you assign the device label as follows.

Y###-**********

# is a three-digit hexadecimal number containing the digits 0 - 9 and uppercase A to F (000 -

FFF)

* indicates any desired character (alphabetical uppercase or lowercase, numerals, or - (hyphen) may be used)

• If you are controlling the CL series console from an R series unit, we recommend that you set the

R unit's START UP MODE to

“REFRESH.” Operation will be safer with the “REFRESH” setting, since mute will be cleared after synchronization has been completed with CL units whose system setting for REMOTE HA ASSIGN is set to “WITH RECALL.”

With the

“RESUME” setting, mute will be cleared and the unit will start operating with the settings that were backed up by the R series unit itself, which could allow unexpected audio to be output.

• A single CL series console can control the HA of up to eight R series units.

If nine or more R series units are connected, you can either divide the HA control between multiple CL series consoles, or you can omit specifying REMOTE HA ASSIGN for the R series units whose HA does not need to be controlled, and use them with START UP MODE set to

“RESUME.”

Setup

Using GPI (General Purpose Interface)

The rear panel GPI (General Purpose Interface) connector can be used as an input/output connector. This connector provides five GPI IN ports and five GPI OUT ports. For example you can use an external switch to control internal parameters of the CL series console or to switch scenes. Conversely, operations or scene changes performed on the CL series console can send control signals to an external device.

For details on how to send control signals to an external device when you switch scenes, refer to

Outputting a control signal to an external device in tandem with scene recall (GPI OUT)

( page 98 ).

Using GPI IN

You can use the GPI IN ports of the GPI connector to control the parameters of the CL series console from an external device. For example, you could use an external switch to turn the CL series console's Talkback on/off, operate the Tap Tempo function, or switch scenes.

Data List

COMPRESSOR

The COMP processor attenuates signals above a specified THRESHOLD by a specified

RATIO.

The COMP processor can also be used as a limiter, which, with a RATIO of

∞:1, reduces the level to the threshold. This means that the limiter's output level never actually exceeds the threshold.

Description

This determines the level at which compression is applied.

This determines the amount of compression, that is, the change in output signal level relative to change in input signal level.

This determines how soon the signal will be compressed once the compressor has been triggered.

This determines how soon the compressor returns to its normal gain once the trigger signal level drops below the threshold. The value is expressed as the duration required for the level to change by 6 dB.

This sets the compressor's output signal level.

This determines how compression is applied at the threshold. For higher knee settings, compression is applied gradually as the signal exceeds the specified threshold, creating a more natural sound.

Data List

COMPANDER HARD (COMPANDER-H), COMPANDER SOFT (COMPANDER-S)

The hard and soft companders combine the effects of the compressor, expander and limiter.

THRESHOLD

WIDTH

0dB

Input Level

The companders function differently at the following levels:

1

0 dB and higher ..................................Functions as a limiter.

2

Exceeding the threshold ....................Functions as a compressor.

3

Below the threshold and width ..........Functions as an expander.

The hard compander has an expansion ratio of 5:1, while the soft compander has an expansion ratio of 1.5:1. The expander is essentially turned off when the width is set to maximum. The compressor has a fixed knee setting of 2.

* The gain is automatically adjusted according to the ratio and threshold values, and can be increased by up to 18 dB.

* The OUT GAIN parameter enables you to compensate for the overall level change caused by the compression and expansion processes.

This determines how soon the signal is compressed or expanded once the compander has been triggered.

This determines how soon the compressor or expander returns to the normal gain once the trigger signal level drops below or exceeds the threshold respectively. The value is expressed as the duration required for the level to change by 6 dB.

This sets the compressor's output signal level.

This determines how far below the threshold expansion will be applied. The expander is activated when the level drops below the threshold and width.

Reception

These messages are echoed to MIDI OUT if [CONTROL CHANGE ECHO] is ON.

If [TABLE] is selected, these messages are received when [CONTROL CHANGE Rx] is ON and [Rx CH] matches, and will control parameters according to the settings of the [CONTROL CHANGE EVENT LIST]. For the parameters that can be

assigned, refer to “ Parameters That Can Be Assigned to Control Changes ”

If [NRPN] is selected, these messages are received when [CONTROL CHANGE Rx] is ON and the [Rx CH] matches; the four messages NRPN control number (62h,

63h) and DATA ENTRY control number (06h, 26h) are used to control the specified parameter.

Transmission

If [TABLE] is selected, and if [CONTROL CHANGE Tx] is ON when you operate a parameter that is assigned in the [CONTROL CHANGE EVENT LIST], these messages will be transmitted on the [Tx CH] channel. For the parameters that can

be assigned, refer to “ Parameters That Can Be Assigned to Control Changes ”

( page 22 ).

If [NRPN] is selected, and if [CONTROL CHANGE Tx] is ON when you operate a specified parameter, the four messages NRPN control number (62h, 63h) and

1.4 PROGRAM CHANGE

(Cn)

Reception

If [PROGRAM CHANGE ECHO] is ON, bank select messages will also be echoed from MIDI OUT.

If SINGLE CH is selected, these messages are received if [PROGRAM CHANGE Rx] is ON and the [Rx CH] matches. However if [OMNI] is ON, these messages are received regardless of the channel. When these messages are received, scene memory, effect library and premium rack library are recalled according to the settings of the [PROGRAM CHANGE EVENT LIST].

Transmission

If [PROGRAM CHANGE Tx] is ON, these messages are transmitted according to the [PROGRAM CHANGE Table] settings when scene memory, effect library and premium rack library are recalled.

If SINGLE CH is selected, these messages are transmitted on the [Tx CH] channel.

If the recalled scene memory, effect library and premium rack library have been assigned to more than one PROGRAM NUMBER, the lowest-numbered

PROGRAM NUMBER for each MIDI channel will be transmitted.

PROGRAM CHANGE messages are not used for transmission to CL Editor because there is no guarantee that the contents of the assignment tables will match.

(PARAMETER CHANGE messages are always used.)

You can choose either MULTI MIDI CH or SINGLE CH.

If SINGLE is selected

You can choose the Rx CH, OMNI CH, and Tx CH.

You can choose whether a bank select message will be added.

A bank of up to 16 can be specified.

If MULTI is selected

The Rx and Tx channels will be the same.

The assignment table will use the settings for each MIDI channel. Bank select messages will not be added.

You can make settings for up to sixteen MIDI channels.

Data is lost when you write to the preset library.

The unique header (Model ID) identifies whether the device is a CL series.

To calculate the check sum, add the bytes starting with the byte after BYTE

COUNT (LOW) and ending with the byte before CHECK SUM, take the binary complement, and set bit 7 to 0.

CHECK SUM = (-sum)&0x7F

Bulk Dumps can be received at any time, and can be transmitted at any time when a Bulk Dump Request is received.

A Bulk Dump is transmitted on the [Rx CH] channel in response to a Bulk Dump

Request.

In the data portion, seven words of 8-bit data are converted into eight words of

7-bit data.
