Differences between DME64N/24N
Introduction to the DME64N/24N
Differences between DME64N/24N
The DME64N has four I/O card slots, while the DME24N has one I/O card slot and eight channels of builtin analog audio I/O.
A single I/O card can handle up to 16 channels of audio I/O, so the DME64N can handle a maximum of 64 audio I/O channels. The DME24N can handle up to 24 audio I/O channels.
The DME64N has approximately double the DSP processing power of the DME24N.
DME64N/24N Features
In addition to basic mixing and matrix output functions, the DME64N/24N includes a equalizers, compressors, delay, etc. – that can be patched together via DME Designer to configure just about any audio system you need.
Audio System Network
Multiple DME series units that are interconnected in a network via Ethernet function as a single audio system.
In a DME audio system, a group of the same models that can be operated in sync is called a “device group;” audio processing divisions that accommodate multiple device groups are called “zones;” and the entire area serviced by the acoustic system is called an “area.”
Each device group always includes one DME series unit that functions as the “group master” and controls all other DME series units in the same device group.
If a computer is connected to the network, you can use the computer to control an entire device group via the group master.
Glossary for the DME64N/24N
This section explains terminology specific to the DME64N/24N.
Components and parameters
The individual audio processing modules (equalizers, compressors, etc.) are called “components.”
External head amplifier control modules are also available as components.
Changing the parameters of components enables control over the operation of the components.
Configuration
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 in a configuration are called “preset parameters.”
One DME64N/24N unit has a number of configurations, and a configuration has a number of preset parameters.
User Defined buttons
Assigning parameters to be User Defined Buttons enables you to control the device from the ICP1.
Refer to the DME Designer Owner’s Manual for details.
DME64N/DME24N Owner’s Manual 9
Glossary for the DME64N/24N
Scene
A combination of all configuration and preset parameters is called a “scene.”
Scenes can be recalled from an ICP1, GPI device, other external controllers, or computer.
Up to 999 scenes can be stored for each device group.

Signal Types
Signal Types
DME64N/24N audio system signals can be broadly categorized as follows.
1 Audio
The DME64N/24N will be required to send and receive audio signals to and from other DME series units as well as other audio equipment.
Audio signal transmission and reception will occur primarily via the [INPUT] and [OUTPUT] connectors on the DME24N.
2 Device group control
Device group control signals control all DME series devices in the group.
There are two types of device group control signals, as follows:
• Control signals between the computer and the group master DME series unit
• Control signals between the group master DME series unit and the other DME series units
You can use the DME Designer application to control the entire device group, such as sending components to the devices and setting the parameters as required.
3 Device control
These signals provide communication and control between individual devices.
Included in this category are MIDI messages transferred between [USB] connectors, GPI signals transferred between [GPI] connectors, and remote head amp control signals handled via the [REMOTE] connector.

About DME Designer
About DME Designer
DME Designer software enables you to integrate, configure, and control the DME series system from a connected computer.
You can build the DME series audio system using graphic blocks in DME Designer that are displayed on the computer monitor.
The DME series settings, configuration, and parameter data are transferred from the computer to the DME series unit via the USB or Ethernet connection.
Once the data is transferred to the unit, you can disconnect the DME series unit from the computer and use it as a stand-alone processor.
Alternatively, you can control the DME series unit real-time from DME Designer as long as it is connected to a computer.
If multiple DME series units are connected in the network, DME Designer enables you to build a configuration that includes those units.
DME64N/24N. Refer to the DME Designer Installation Guide for detailed information on installing the DME
Designer application and required software drivers.
Refer to the DME Designer Owner’s Manual for setup and operation instructions.

CASCADE Connection (DME64N only)
The rear-panel [CASCADE] connector can be connected to the [CASCADE] connector on another
DME64N/24N or other compatible device via a dedicated cascade cable for bidirectional transfer of control, audio, and word clock signals. The communication direction automatically switches to unidirectional when connecting to a mixer such as the PM5D, or bidirectional when connecting to another DME64N/24N unit.
In the unidirectional mode the audio signal flow is from the [CASCADE OUT] connector to the [CASCADE
IN] connector. In the bidirectional mode signal flow also occurs in the reverse direction via the same cable. The total number of audio channels that can be connected to a mixer or DME64N/24N unit is 32.
Word clock is continuously output from both the [CASCADE IN] and [CASCADE OUT] connectors, and is received by the corresponding [CASCADE IN] or [CASCADE OUT] connector on the connected device.
In all cases the [CASCADE OUT] of one device must be connected to the [CASCADE IN] connector of the other. Do not connect [CASCADE IN] to [CASCADE IN], or [CASCADE OUT] to [CASCADE OUT].
NOTE
Maximum length by the optional dedicated Cascade cables
Unidirectional Cascade connection: 200m (44.1/48kHz), 100m (88.2/96kHz)

NOTE
It is also possible to remotely control DME64N units from the PM5D via a CASCADE connection. In such cases assign the nearest DME64N unit to the PM5D as the device group master.
Another method of remotely controlling a DME64N/24N from a PM5D is via CobraNet connections to MY16-C or MY16-
CII cards.
In either case the PM5D will only be able to communicate with one device group master, so all DME64N/24N units to be controlled from the PM5D must be in the same device group, and the host address of the device group master must be set to
“2.”

WORD CLOCK Connection
Word clock signals are transferred to and from external devices via the [WORD CLOCK IN] and [WORD
CLOCK OUT] connectors. The [WORD CLOCK OUT] connector can be used to supply the DME64N/
24N word clock to external equipment. Word clock is continuously output by the DME64N/24N during normal operation. The word clock signal from an external device can be received via the [WORD CLOCK IN] connector.
NOTE
Word clock can also be received and transmitted via a mini-YGDAI card installed in an I/O slot, or the [CASCADE IN] and
[CASCADE OUT] connectors. It is necessary to specify whether the DME64N/24N will use the internal word clock or an

The +V terminals have an open-terminal voltage of 5 volts. The IN terminals can detect a full range of input voltages from 0V through
5V, while the OUT terminals output either signal “L” or “H” at a TTL level.
The parameters for each GPI input and output are assigned via the DME Designer application.
NOTE
The DME Designer can be used to set up the system so that scene recall operations and user parameter control can be carried out from connected GPI control devices. Refer to the DME Designer manual for details.
Euroblock connectors are used for all GPI input and output connections. Euroblock connection methods are
described in “Euroblock Connection” on page 26 in this manual.

1. Parameter Control Function
Lets you control DME64N/24N parameters using a
DAW Controller.
For example, if the PAN parameter is assigned to CH1 of the DAW controller, you can control the PAN parameter by operating a knob.
There are two modes in the parameter control function, as follows:
(1) General Parameter Operation Mode
[KNOB] and [CH FADER] controls are used to operate internal parameters assigning them in DME
Designer.
For detailed settings, see the “DME Designer Owner’s
Manual.”
(2) Final Output Stage Parameter Operation Mode
Final output stage parameters are operated using
[MUTE] and [CH FADER] controls.
Unlike the General Parameter Control Mode, controls and the parameters that are compatible with them, are fixed in this mode.
[Method of Operation]
[ ▲]: Switches to General Internal Parameter Control
Mode.
[
▼]: Switches to Final Output Stage Parameter Control
Mode.
[BANK <][BANK >]: The channels targeted for operation are shifted by the number of channels built into the DAW controller.
[CH <][CH >]: The channels targeted for operation are shifted one channel at a time.
[SELECT]: Switches the display method on the DAW controller.
When turned OFF, an overall display appears. When a channel is turned ON, the detail display appears for that channel.
For information about the overall and detail displays, see the next item, “Setting and Parameter Name
Display Function.”
[KNOB]: Changes assigned parameters in the General
Internal Parameter Operation Mode.
This is not used in the Final Output Stage Parameter
Operation Mode.
[MUTE]: This is not used in the General Internal
Parameter Operation Mode.
This turns muting ON or OFF for the corresponding channel in the Final Output Stage Parameter Operation

Options
The ICP1, CP4SW, CP1SF, and CP4SF controllers are available as options for remote external control of the DME series.
The ICP1 connects via Ethernet, while the CP4SW, CP1SF, and CP4SF connect via the GPI interface. For more information on installing your Control Panel and connecting it to a DME series unit, refer to the owner’s manual that came with the
Control Panel. For more information on settings, refer to the DME Designer Owner’s Manual.
ICP1
This controller connects to a DME series unit via Ethernet. Like the DME series units, a unique IP address must be assigned to each controller unit. Data is transmitted and received via Ethernet cables.
You can assign and control any function of all DME series units in the same device group via the controller.
Up to four parameter sets can be assigned to six function keys (F1 – F6) located above and under the LCD. You can control up to 24 parameters by selecting a display page using the [HOME] key.
Options
CP4SW, CP4SF, and CP1SF
These controllers connect to DME series units via the [GPI] connectors. These controllers control only the
DME series units to which they are directly connected. The controller switches enable you to turn the parameter settings On and Off. The switch LEDs enable you to check the parameter status. The faders enable you to control the parameter values.

Supplemental Information 1
Messages Transmitted When Multiple Messages are Assigned to the Same Parameter
The DME64N/24N MIDI transmit messages are specified via the “MIDI Control Change Table” and “MIDI Parameter
Change Table.” The “MIDI Control Change Table” and “MIDI Parameter Change Table” can be set up via the DME
Designer application.
Multiple messages can be assigned to a single parameter, but the DME64N/24N will only transmit one of the assigned messages.
The transmitted messages are as follows:
• If a Control Change message and a Parameter Change message are assigned to the same parameter → the Control Change message will be transmitted.
• If multiple Control Change numbers are assigned to the same parameter → the smallest Control Change number message will be transmitted.
• If multiple Parameter Change numbers are assigned to the same parameter → the smallest Parameter Change number message will be transmitted.
Supplemental Information 2
Setting the Parameter Change Message Parameter Data Values
The Parameter change parameter values are expressed as 32-bit integers with or without parity.
• A parity bit (positive: 0, negative: 1) is added above the most significant value bit (bit 31).
• Fractional parameters will be converted according to the integer table.
• For integers with parity, negative numbers are expressed as the 2’s complement.
