Fragen & Antworten zum 02R
Stand: Januar 1996
[General]
Who is the main target user?
- Modular digital multitrack, such as ADAT, DA88, and disk based recorder
systems in project studios and post production.
What are the sales points?
- 40 channel all input mixer
- Direct connection of digital inputs and outputs from DA88 and ADAT
- Total recall of all mix settings with 64 memories (except input trim
and pad)
- On-board automation referenced to either SMPTE or MTC timecode
- A total of 50 dynamics processors are provided; one for each input,
each of the 8 bus outputs, and for stereo out.
- The large 320 x 240 dot graphic LCD (FL backlit) makes learning easy.
- All parameters support MIDI control (approximately 3,000 parameters)
- Two on-board effect units
- Sharp digital EQ on all 40 inputs and Stereo Out
- Instant library access to professional EQ and Dynamics settings
- Control is easy, thanks to dedicated buttons and knobs for setting
Routing, Aux Send, Pan and EQ.
How many recorders can be hooked up?
- There are four rear-panel slots. When four single-size cards such as
the CD8-AT, CD8-TD, and CD8-Y are installed, 02R is essentially a 32 digital
input mixer. When the AES/EBU cards are installed, however, 02R becomes
a 16 digital input mixer. This is because the AES/EBU cards (CD8-AE) require
two slots each.
How does reliability compare to analog mixers?
- It is difficult to compare digital and analog mixers. However, if we
compare the 02R with an analog mixer that has the same specifications as
the 02R (not that there is one for the price), then simply because the
02R achieves the same thing with far fewer parts, it must, by the law of
averages, be more reliable.
Does the 02R offer simple operation?
- Yes. Once the input level has been set using the GAIN control and PAD
switch, mix operation simply involves using the faders and ON/OFF switches,
essentially the same as that of an analog mixer.
- EQ and PAN (and AUX sends and Routing of each channel) are controlled
using the dedicated knobs and switches of the virtual controller, and graphically
confirmed in the LCD display.
- Scene memory makes it possible to recall exact settings at a later
time or a different location.
How powerful is the CPU?
- The 02R is driven by twin RISC CPUs providing powerful system control
of the dynamic automation.
Will the system software be upgraded?
- Yes. As necessary, higher versions of the software will be produced.
Will custom software be available?
- No. We think that the functionality provided is sufficient to make
custom software unnecessary. Some functions will be supported by later
software releases.
Is the 02R supplied with good user documentation?
- Yes, the 02R user documentation will be easy to use and will allow
users to locate and digest information quickly and easily. We are trying
a number of new documentation techniques to ensure this.
[Input/Output]
How many mic pre-amps are there, and for
which channels?
- All 16 Mic/line input channels are balanced TRS phone jacks and have
mic pre-amps, and the first 8 additionally provide a choice of XLR input
or phone jack input, and also supply phantom power.
Out of 16 mic/line inputs, are only 8 XLR?
- Yes, but all 16 line input channels are balanced. Since the 8 channels
with XLR each have phantom power that is independently switchable on/off,
they are especially convenient for condenser microphones. TRS phone inputs
are also provided for these 8 channels.
How many detents do the input gain knobs
have?
- Since these settings are completely in the analog realm, they cannot
be memorized. However, the input gain knobs have 31 detents, so they can
be set manually in a precise and repeatable way.
What signal levels does the AD/DA card support?
- The AD/DA card (CD8-AD) features +4 dB/10 dB switches
for each input and output. So any analog multitrack recorder can be hooked
up. Furthermore, the +4 dB setting means that 02R can easily be interfaced
with live-sound mixers, which generally operate at +4 dB.
Are insert points provided?
- Yes. Mic/Line inputs CH1-CH8 provide insert I/O in the form of TRS
phone jacks, located after the Head Amp and before the A/D converter, at
a signal level of +0 dBm. This means the customer can still use his own
dynamics processors, although, each 02R input already has dynamics processors
built-in.
Does the Tape input have insert I/O?
- No.
Do the inputs have a HPF and LPF?
- Yes, the lowest of the four parametric EQ bands for each input and
Stereo Out can be used for HPF (as well as for full sweepable and shelving
EQ), and the highest band can be used for LPF.
How much input delay can be set?
- Up to approximately 60 ms (2,600 samples) can be set independently
for each channel (54.2 ms @ 48 kHz sampling rate and 59.0 ms
@ 44.1 kHz).
How many AUX's?
- There are 8 auxiliary sends. AUX7 and AUX8 feed the internal effects.
AUX1 through AUX6 are for use with external devices.
Is there a Stereo Send?
- Odd and Even auxiliaries can be paired AUX 1/2, 3/4, 5/6 except for
AUX7 and AUX8, which are for internal effects. AUX5 and AUX6 can also be
routed to C-R and Studio Out for CUE mix, with the internal effects as
effects monitor.
What is the maximum I/O level?
- For balanced outputs (STEREO OUT, STUDIO MONITOR OUT, and C-R MONITOR
OUT), the maximum output level is +24 dBm (nominal +4 dBm). For unbalanced
outputs (RCA/phono STEREO OUT) it's +10 dBV (nominal 10 dBV). For
the AUX SENDs it's +20dB (nominal +4dB). While for the INSERT I/O and other
unbalanced outputs it's +20dB (nominal 0dB).
How do you read the meter level?
- Since the 02R can be connected directly to a digital recorder, 0 dB
on each meter corresponds to digital clipping level. 20 dB at the
Stereo meter corresponds to +4 dBm for the Stereo and C-R analog outputs.
Is there a Stereo Pair function that allows
any two channels to be paired?
- Yes, there is a Pair function that allows adjacent odd and even channels
to be paired. For example, channels 1/2 or 3/4 can be paired, but not 2/3.Paired
channels can also be grouped.
[Routing/Bus Out/Direct Out]
How many buses can be used for recording
simultaneously?
- Eight buses can be used. For example, with two Tascam DA-88s connected
to an 02R and a signal routed to Bus1, that signal goes to Track1 and Track9.
The REC Track on/off controls on the DA-88s are used to determine which
track actually records the signal.
How about direct out?
- There are 16 direct outputs, one for each MIC/LINE input (116).
Therefore, 16-track direct recording is possible for live applications.
What happens when a channel is assigned to
the direct outputs and buses?
- The eight outputs of Slot1 work as Direct outputs for Mic/Line channels
1 through 8. The eight outputs of Slot2 work as Direct outputs for Mic/Line
channels 9 through 16. Both slots can also be used as Bus outputs 1 through
8. When a channel is routed to both the direct output and bus, the direct
output has priority.
Are the direct outputs pre or post fader?
- The initial setting is post fader. However, this can be changed using
the Preferences on the SETUP menu.
Is there analog Bus output?
- Yes. The bus output format depends on the card that is inserted. Thus,
when the AD/DA card (CD8-AD) is inserted, Bus outputs are analog (1/4"
phone balanced, 20 bit linear conversion), and the level can be set to
either 10 dB or +4 dB using a DIP switch for each input
and output on the CD8-AD card.
Is there a reset function for all assignment
routing?
- Yes, bus assignment information can be memorized in each Scene memory.
Since the memory function includes Routing, you can store any bus assignment
data and recall it.
[Digital I/O, Digital Connection]
What is the card configuration?
- One card consists of eight in channels and eight out channels. Which
channels are used depends on which slot the card is installed in. Slot1
and Slot2 support the eight BUS outputs and the direct outputs. Slot3 and
Slot4 support the eight BUS outputs only.
What is the sampling frequency?
- When Internal clock is used, it is 44.1 kHz or 48 kHz. When External
clock is used, frequencies from 30 kHz to 50 kHz are supported.
How difficult is it to handle wordclock?
- Once the wordclock source has been fixed in a project studio, it will
not be necessary to change the wordclock setting subsequently. And on the
02R, the time required from wordclock select to lock is much shorter than
on the DMC1000, thanks to the new DSP chip. Also, the 02R Wordclock Select
page in DIGITAL I/O menu provides a convenient monitoring facility showing
which digital sources are currently connected.
What is the channel status of the digital
output?
- Format:Consumer or Professional (depends on terminal; S/PDIF out or
AES/EBU out)
- Category:General
- Copy Prohibit:no
- Emphasis:no
- Type:2 channel audio signal
Are there digital AUX send outputs and return
inputs?
- No. But since in almost all cases AUX sends are used for effects or
cue monitor, analog output is convenient.
Can CD or DAT be input directly?
- There are two COAXIAL digital inputs and one AES/EBU digital input.
These are used as direct 2-track inputs.
Does the AES/EBU input accept a consumer
type format digital signal?
- Yes, there is one AES/EBU input and two coaxial (S/PDIF) digital inputs.
As well as just monitoring these digital inputs, the AES/EBU input (2TR
IN DIGITAL 1) can be routed to LINE input 17/18, and the S/PDIF input (2TR
IN DIGITAL 2) can be routed to LINE input 19/20. These digital inputs can
also be selected as the wordclock source.
Does the SPDIF input accept a professional
type format digital signal?
- Yes, as above.
Can the ProMix 01 be used as a submixer for
the 02R digital input?
- Yes, but the Promix 01 must be the word clock master. This can
be achieved by connecting the Promix 01's digital output to the 02R's
2TR IN DIGITAL 2 and routing that input to Line inputs 19/20, which can
then be set as the wordclock source.
Can 24 bit data go directly to a 16 bit recorder?
- No, you need to use the Dither function, which is implemented for the
8 Bus outputs and the Stereo Out. The number of bits for dither can be
set as required (e.g. 16-bit, 18-bit, 20-bit).
[Memory/Librarian]
How many Memories are there?
- Scene Memory:64
- EQ Library:128 (40 Preset and 88 User)
- Dynamics:128 (40 Preset and 88 User)
- Effects:128 (40 Preset and 88 User)
- Channel Library:64 (User area only)
How are the libraries used?
- Libraries are provided for EQ, Channel, Effects, and Dynamics. The
EQ, Effects, and Dynamics libraries contain 40 presets.
- For example, EQ settings can be copied from the library to any EQ.
EQ settings can also be copied between channels via the library. The preset
EQ settings are a good place to start when applying EQ, and they also serve
as a useful reference. Unlike scene memories which store all mix settings,
the library allows users to store EQ settings independently.
- The Channel library allows users to store channel setups independently.
For example, the SNARE setting includes EQ and Dynamics settings.
- Scene memory looks difficult to use.
- There are dedicated buttons for selecting, storing, and recalling mix
scenes. Mix scenes can be titled for easy identification, and there is
also a dedicated Scene Number display LED next to the LCD display. Scene
memory operation is straightforward. Plus there is an UNDO memory function
for restoring mix scene data that has been overwritten accidentally. A
preference can be set so that a confirmation message appears before each
scene memory store and recall.
Is there Scene Memory filtering?
- Yes. For each scene memory you can set the Fader Recall Safe function,
using the Preference function in one of the SETUP menus, to specify whether
or not fader information will be protected from Recalling.
How long does it take to recall a mix scene?
- This of course depends on how many of the parameters (a total of more
than 3000) are changed. When recalling, the 02R adopts only differential
values.
How can scene memory data be saved?
- Scene memory data can be saved via MIDI Bulk Dump to a MIDI Data Filer
or MIDI sequencer. The compact and easy-to-use Yamaha MDF2 MIDI Data Filer
is ideal for this job. The 02R Project Manager software for the Mac can
also be used to save scene memory data.
[EQ/PAN]
What EQ functionality is provided?
- Four band full parametric EQ is implemented for each input and for
the Stereo output. The lowest EQ band can be used as shelving or HPF, and
the highest EQ band can be used as shelving or LPF.
What is the frequency range of each EQ?
- Each of the four parametric EQ bands has a range of 20 Hz to 20 kHz,
which can be adjusted in 1/12 octave steps, about 120 positions.
- Q: 0.1-10 with 41 steps.
How many steps of gain control in the EQ?
- 0.5 dB steps from 18 dB to +18 dB.
Is there an EQ reset function?
- Yes. Pressing the EQ section's LOW/HPF and HIGH/LPF buttons together
resets the selected channel's EQ, including Frequency, Q, and Gain, to
their initial settings. Double-clicking the LOW/HPF, HIGH/LPF, LMID, or
HMID button resets just that band's Gain to 0 dB.
Does EQ Curve drawing takes a long time?
- No, drawing is very quick due to the twin RISC CPU system (much quicker
than ProMix 01). The EQ curve provides the sound engineer a clear and visual
image, allowing him to adjust the EQ accordingly.
Does the main stereo output have EQ?
- Yes, it has the same EQ as each channel (4 band full parametric EQ),
which is very convenient for mastering.
How does Dual Pan work?
- Adjacent odd and even channels can be ganged together using either
the PAN menu or by simply pressing the PAN L/ODD and R/EVEN buttons together
on the selected channel. This setting can be made independently of the
Pair settings. Each channel can be panned individually, allowing you to
re-locate the stereo source as desired.
[Fader]
How is the FLIP key used?
- This key exchanges the function of the faders between the Mic/Line
and the Tape inputs including the [SEL] key; i.e., all functions be exchanged
or "flipped."
How do the multifunction faders operate?
- The input channel faders normally work as conventional mixer faders
unless an AUX1-8 button has been pressed. When an AUX send button is pressed,
the faders function as the send level controller for each channel.
How do I return the faders to their normal
operating mode?
- Press any key in the Display Access area except for an AUX button.
What is the fader resolution in dB steps?
- Physically there are 128 fader steps, and the dB amount of each step
depends on the fader position. Steps are coarse in the lower range, and
fine in the upper range, but are well balanced audibly.
- +10 - 90 and infinity for input faders
- 0 - 120 and infinity for Stereo fader, AUX master, and Bus
master
What is the resolution, interpolation, and
stroke for the channel, master and AUX faders?
- Fader resolution is 7 bit 128 step, PAN 33 position.
- Achieved interpolation is 24-bit resolution, which is 16,777,215 steps.
(Achieved interpolation for the DMC1000 is 16 bit, and for the ProMix 01
is 12 bit.)
- 24 bit interpolation is applied to all the inputs, and to the AUX Send,
PAN and ST Out faders.
- Fader stroke is 100 mm motorized fader.
- 10 - 90 and infinity dB for input faders
- 0 - 120 and infinity dB for Stereo master, AUX masters, and
BUS masters
- The fader curve is similar to the DMC1000 (Yamaha's flagship digital
recording console).
How does SOLO work?
- There are two solo modes: recording solo and mixdown solo. Modes are
set in the SETUP menu.
- Recording SOLO: The SOLO bus is connected to the C-R output, allowing
non-destructive soloing for monitoring the SOLO sound without affecting
the main stereo bus.
- Mixdown SOLO: The SOLO function directly affects the main stereo bus.
How many fader groups and mute groups are
there?
- There are 4 fader groups (A, B, C, D) and 4 mute groups (E, F, G, H).
Fader groups and mute groups work independently.
How does the group function work?
- ·Fader group: Any of the grouped channels can be a master for
operation. It is not possible to include a fader in two or more groups
at once.
- ·Mute group: Any channel within a group can be a master. The function
depends on the Key On/Off status at the time that the mute group is defined.
For example, suppose that channels 1 through 5 are in the same mute group,
and that when the group is defined, channels 1 to 3 are on and channels
4 and 5 are off. In this case, pressing an on/off switch for a channel
in the group will alternate the on/off setting of channels 1/2/3 and 4/5.
How are AUX Send Master levels and the 8
Bus Output levels set?
- The master levels of the eight buses are controlled using the fader
icon module in one of the LCD displays of the [METER] menu page. The Aux
Send Master Levels are also controlled in the same display menu page.
Is there a crossfade function for channel
faders?
- Yes. A crossfade time of up to 10 seconds, in 0.1 sec steps, can be
set for individual channel faders as part of a scene memory.
Is Auto Fade Out of the master fader possible?
- Yes, by using the built-in automation, which is timecode based, or
by setting a crossfade time for a scene memory.
Are the faders like those of the DMC1000?
- 100 mm motorized faders are used. Mechanically these are the same as
the faders on the ProMix 01. Since the 02R does not implement Touch Sense
(which is implemented on the DMC1000), the SELECT key is used for Auto
Mix recording. For Automix playback, the Fader OFF mode turns the fader
motors off, thereby eliminating any mechanical noise.
Do the faders respond quickly?
- Yes, response is very quick due to the twin RISC CPU system. One of
these CPUs is used just for fader control.
What is the fader drive belt made of?
- The fader drive belt is made from Kevlar fiber reinforced polyurethane
(a famous reinforced plastic originally developed by Du Pont). This is
the same material used for car engine timing belts.
[Dynamics/Effects]
Are there Dynamics Processors?
- Yes, they are provided for each MIC/LINE and Tape input, for each of
the 8 bus outs and for the STEREO out, for a total of 50 dynamics processors,
with functionality that includes Comp, Expand, Gate, Ducking, and Compander.
Can dynamics be set independently for each
input?
- Yes. Incidentally, parameters of paired channels are linked.
Do the dynamics effects allow keying from
any input channel?
- An input channel can be used as the key in signal for dynamics processing
of the channel(s) to its right; for example, channel 2 can be the key in
signal for channel 3, and also for channel 4, channel 5, and so on. It
is also possible to use AUX1 or AUX2 as a key in signal for any channel.
Are the compressors the same as on the ProMix
01?
- No. A newly developed DSP chip specifically for audio processing is
used that is better than those in the 01.
How good are the internal effects?
- The 02R uses a Yamaha effect chip for internal effects. Processing
capability is similar to the SPX. In addition, effect parameters have been
selected in collaboration with professional sound engineers from around
the world.
[Automix]
Which parameters can be automated?
- Faders (including AUX send level), channel on/off, EQ, and Pan. About
850 parameters in all. Faders, ON/OFF, PAN, and EQ can be selected independently
for automix editing.
Will the automation work with SMPTE?
- Yes, and also with MTC (MIDI Time Code). Both SMPTE and MTC can be
connected directly.
What timecode frame rates are supported?
- The 02R supports 30NDF, 30DF, 25, and 24. These rates are selected
on one of the automix pages. The internal timecode generator is intended
only for checking and trying the automix function. There is no timecode
output.
What is the accuracy of automation?
- 1 frame (the same as the DMC1000).
What are the fader recording modes?
- There are two fader recording modes: Absolute and Relative. When Absolute
mode is selected, the actual fader movements are recorded. When Relative
mode is selected, fader movements relative to the existing fader data are
recorded. This mode, for example, allows you to increase a level by, say,
3 dB relative to the existing data.
Can scene memory snapshots be recorded in
the automix?
- Yes. Scene memory recalls can be added to the automix either "on-the-fly"
during recording or inserted into the automix using the Event Edit page
(i.e. an off-line edit). The same applies for library recalls too, such
as EQ, Dynamics, Effects, and Channel.
Which is the edit/write button for automix?
- Once automix recording has started, the channel SEL buttons are used
to activate recording. While active, the SEL button flashes.
Is it possible to edit more than one channel
at a time?
- Yes. Use the SEL buttons to select all the channels that you want to
edit. Incidentally, when the REC button on the LCD is activated by double-clicking
the ENTER button, all overwrite parameters and selected channels enter
Record/Edit mode.
How do I edit the EQ/PAN of a specific channel?
- The currently selected channel is indicated by the "SELECTED CHANNEL"
LED next to the LCD display. The currently selected channel is the channel
whose SEL key was pressed last.
Can the fader motors be turned off?
- Yes. There is a Motor Off option on one of the automix pages. This
can only be used with Automix playback.
Can automation memory be expanded?
- Yes, optional 1MB ME4M expansion RAM will be available, and one or
two ME4Ms can be used for expansion up to 2 MB. However the 02R comes with
512 KB standard (the same as the DMC1000), and this will be sufficient
for most applications.
How can Automix data be saved?
- Automix data can be saved via MIDI Bulk Dump to a MIDI Data Filer or
MIDI sequencer. The compact and easy-to-use Yamaha MDF2 MIDI Data Filer
is ideal for this job. The 02R Project Manager software for the Mac can
also be used to save Automix data.
[LCD]
What about the LCD display?
- The large FL backlit 320 x 240 dot graphic LCD display allows mix settings
and EQ curve graphics to be seen clearly. The LCD contrast control is located
next to the LCD for easy access.
Is there an Auto Screen function, and for
what parameters?
- Yes, for EQ, Pan, Routing, Automix, and Solo. For example, if you adjust
an EQ or Pan knob in the area of the selected channel, the LCD display
will automatically change to the EQ or Pan screen.
[User Interface]
How do I use the cursor buttons and the wheel?
- Use the cursor keys to move the cursor in the LCD graphic, the wheel
to change parameter values, and the ENTER key to turn parameters on/off.
How is the ENTER button used?
- This button works in a number of ways depending on the selected LCD
function. In some cases it is used to enter/confirm execution, for example,
selecting the RECALL icon and pressing ENTER to execute a RECALL in the
EQ library. In situations where there are only two options (e.g., EQ on/off,
Dynamics on/off) it is used to set the parameter directly.
Is there a HELP button or menu?
- No. However the 02R is extremely easy to use, and there are dedicated
switches for accessing each function. In addition, Selected Channel area
allows you to use knobs to control bus assignment, AUX, Pan, and EQ, and
also provides a dedicated bus assign button.
Is there a video output?
- No, but the large and bright LCD graphic is very easy to view.
How do you name channels?
- Space is provided for a tape strip on which channel names can be written
in pen or pencil. In the LCD menus, channels are always referred to by
the number.
How can the input delay be set for all channels
in one go?
- By double-clicking the ENTER button in the Delay settings menu all
channels can be set to the currently selected value.
What other parameters can be set by double-clicking
the ENTER button?
- Channel Phase/Attenuator, channel fader crossfade times, AUX pre/post
send, channel delay time (as mentioned above), and all channel select for
extracting automix data.
[Sonic Quality]
What AD/DA converters are used?
- All inputs (except for Talk Back): 20 bit 64 times oversampling
- (Talk Back input:16 bit, 64 times oversampling)
- All Outputs (except for AUX Out and Studio Out): 20 bit 8 times oversampling
- Aux Out and Studio Out: 18 bit 8 times oversampling
What is the sonic quality?
- Once past the initial A/D conversion, all processing (EQ, effects,
compression, mixing) is performed in the digital realm. Accordingly, there
is no signal degradation and crosstalk. Internal processing is performed
using 32 bits for a dynamic range of 192 dB. (The DMC1000 is 28 bit, and
the ProMix 01 is 24 bit.)
- The actual analog dynamic range performance is typically 105 dB Mic/Line
In to Stereo Out (A/D + D/A) and typically 110 dB for the Digital In to
Analog Stereo Out (D/A converter).
What is the S/N?
- Typically it is close to that of analog mixers. All post A/D converter
processing (EQ, effects, compression, mixing) is performed in the digital
realm. This means that bus interference noise (i.e., hum in analog mixers)
is completely avoided.
- When all channels are off, or channel faders set to their minimum positions,
and the ST out fader set to maximum the 02R is extremely quiet, and the
noise level is much lower than that of an analog mixer since there is no
residual noise from the unit itself.
How much is the residual noise when a fader
is bottomed?
- Digital zero, completely - infinity.
What DSP chips are used?
- The 02R uses new Yamaha DSP chips that contain DSP, digital EQ, and
dynamics processing functions. These have been developed especially for
audio processing. The internal audio signal is processed with 32-bit precision.
(The DMC1000 is 28-bit, and the ProMix 01 is 24-bit.)
[Multiple 02Rs]
Can the 02R be expanded so that 2 or 3 mixers
function as one big mixer?
- Yes. As many units as desired can be cascaded digitally using the optional
Cascade Kit (CD8-CS KIT), which includes two cards and one cable.
Are there any notes for multiple operation?
- To Cascade two or more mixers together, each must be fitted with a
Cascade card in one of its slots. The Cascade connection carries the 8
bus signals, any selected four of the eight AUX buses, the Stereo bus,
and the SOLO bus.
- Note that 02R Cascade is not compatible with the DMC1000's Cascade
In/Out functions.
[Options]
What options are available?
- ALESIS, TASCAM (TDIF-1), AES/EBU, YAMAHA, and AD/DA cards are available,
with each card providing 8 in and 8 out. A CASCADE card allows multiple
02R units to be cascaded. Meter Bridge, Wooden Side Panels, and a Memory
Expansion Kit are also available.
Is there a meter bridge?
- Yes, an option called MB02. The meter bridge you to monitor Mic/Line,
Tape, Input, AUX Out, and BUS Out with 12 segment LED (including clip),
and Stereo Bus with 32 segment LED. (On the main unit, the stereo bus meter
is 21 segment.)(Meter functionality is also provided in the LCD as a built-in
function.)
[Computer/MIDI control]
Can all parameters be controlled via MIDI?
- All parameters (i.e. more than 3,000) can be controlled via MIDI (using
System Exclusive parameter changes), including not only faders but also
EQ, Effects, and Dynamics. Automation data, setup data, Scene Memory data,
and Library data can be saved to an external computer or a MIDI data filer
via MIDI bulk dump.
Are Program Change commands transmitted?
- Yes. When a memory is recalled on the 02R, a Program Change command
is sent via RS422 (To HOST) and MIDI OUT. When a manual or RS422 memory
recall is initiated, a Program Change command based on the Program Change
table is sent via the MIDI OUT. When a Program Change is received via the
MIDI IN, the received Program Change message is sent via echo out.
Is MMC supported for remote control of a
tape recorder?
- No, but in almost all cases, a locator is used with a tape recorder.
Is supporting software available?
- Yes, 02R Project Manager runs on Macintosh computers, allowing the
user to save mixer data (including scene, setup, and automation memory
data) by project.
How will the Project Manager be distributed?
- It will be distributed free of charge and will not be copy prohibited.
Is the RS422 protocol available for third-party
developers?
- Yes. Yamaha welcome enquires from third-party developers.
Is demo software available?
- An interactive demonstration program for the Macintosh is being produced
as a CD-ROM.
