When the switch is on (｜), the power turns ON.
When the switch is on (z), the power goes to standby.
NOTICE
(If 10 seconds elapse since the last operation, the power switch goes to standby. The state just before the power switch
went to standby is saved, and the system recovers to it when power comes back on.
(To turn the power back on from standby, wait about 6 seconds or so. Turning the power ON and OFF repeatedly may
cause a malfunction.
26
Controls and functions > Rear panel
d[DC INPUT] connector
For connecting to the included power adaptor. First connect this device to the power adaptor and then plug it into
the electrical outlet.
WARNING
(Only ever use the included power cord. Also, never use any other product with the included power cord. Damage,
overheating, and/or fire may result. The included power cord is designed specifically for Japan (up to 125 V).
CAUTION
(Always put the console in standby prior to connecting or disconnecting the cord.
(A small amount of electricity flows even when the power is OFF (on standby). When the product will not be used for a
long time, unplug the cord from the outlet.
eDante PRIMARY/SECONDARY connectors (DM3 only)
These connectors are for Dante audio network connections, such as I/O devices like the Tio1608-D. The connectors to
use are RJ-45 connectors that conform to etherCON CAT5e, made by Neutrik.
NOTICE
(To prevent electromagnetic interference, use STP (Shielded Twisted Pair) cables. When using STP cables, make sure the
metal parts of connectors and shielded parts of cables are in contact with conductive tape or the like.
NOTE
Do not use the EEE function (*) of a network switch inside a Dante network. Power consumption settings are adjusted
automatically between switches that support the EEE function, but some switches do not correctly adjust these mutual
settings correctly. This means that in certain unfavorable cases with the Dante network, the EEE function of a switch might be
enabled, impairing the clock synchronization capability and causing audio to be interrupted. As such, please note the
following.
(If using a managed switch, turn off the EEE function of all ports that use Dante. Do not use a switch that does not allow you
to turn off the EEE function.
(If using an unmanaged switch, do not use a switch that supports the EEE function. Such switches cannot turn off the EEE
function.
*EEE (Energy Efficient Ethernet) function: A technology that reduces power consumption of an Ethernet device when network
traffic is sparse. It is also called “green Ethernet” or IEEE802.3az.
f[USB TO HOST] connector
USB Type B Connector
The product functions as an up to 18 IN/18 OUT, 96 kHz/32-bit audio interface by connecting to a computer via USB
cables. It also allows control of DM3 series and remote control of DAW software by USB-MIDI.
It is necessary to install Yamaha Steinberg USB Driver in order to communicate with a computer.
NOTICE
(Use USB cables under 3 m long.
(Wait at least 6 seconds between unplugging and replugging USB cables.
27

Analog input connections
The INPUT jacks of I/O devices like the DM3 series are mainly for connecting mikes and line level equipment.
Tio1608-D
Switching of patches is configured on the SETUP screen → PATCH screen. Patch switching can also be made
from INPUT screen → INPUT CH PATCH screen.

Connections > Analog connections
Analog output connections
Signals such as the output signals of output-related channels (MIX, MATRIX, STEREO (L/R), monitor signals
(MONITOR OUT L/R channel) and direct output signals of INPUT channels) can be patched to the OMNI OUT
connectors of the DM3 series and OUTPUT jacks of I/O devices.
The top panel of the DM3 series is equipped with a PHONES OUT jack for monitoring, so the signal selected
as the monitor source can always be monitored. In addition, that same signal can be monitored over an
external speaker by assigning the MONITOR OUT L/R channel to the desired output jack.

Dante Network Connections
I/O device connections
A DM3 can be connected to a I/O device (such as Tio1608-D) in 2 ways--via a daisy chain or star connection.
In addition, devices with 2 ports, a main line (PRIMARY) and sub-line (SECONDARY) can be connected to each
other with a redundant connection, which is resistant to failures.
The DM3 can be easily configured with its Auto Setup function using a Dante patch to supported I/O devices.

32
Connections > Dante Network Connections
Dante Auto Setup Function
The Auto Setup function of DM3 automatically configures Dante patches for the DM3 to compatible devices
in the Dante network.
Instead of using external software like a Dante Controller, it makes it easy to set up patches between the DM3
console and compatible devices.
Refer to the related links for the Dante devices compatible with the Auto Setup function.

Connections > Dante Network Connections
Daisy chain connections
A daisy chain is one way of connecting devices like a string of beads. It is a simple network structure with no
need for network switches. It is used for simple systems with only a few connected devices.
The more devices are connected, the more latency is required. In addition, if a system failure occurs, such as
a disconnected cable, it cuts off the network at that point, and communication with further devices in the
chain is lost.

Star connections
Star connection refers to a method of connecting devices with a network switch in the middle. It can be used
for a large network that requires a wide bandwidth by using a network switch that supports a Gigabyte
Ethernet network switch. We recommend having various network switch functions (such as clock
synchronization of any data line, or QoS that prioritizes voice transmission) for the purpose of controlling
and monitoring the network.

37
Connections > Dante Network Connections
Redundant connections
Redundant connections entail a network consisting of 2 lines, a main line (PRIMARY) and a sub-line
(SECONDARY). Normally the PRIMARY line carries communications, but if a problem occurs, such as an
interruption to the PRIMARY line, then communications switch automatically to the SECONDARY line. A
network environment more resistant to failures can be built by connecting in this way in a star configuration
than by a network constructed in a daisy chain.

Comments
Dante
The DM3 utilizes Dante as the communication protocol for audio signals. Dante is a protocol developed by
the company Audinate and it features the ability to handle multiple audio signals with different sampling
frequencies, bit rates and device control signals simultaneously in a networking environment that supports
Gigabyte Ethernet. It offers the following advantages, among others.
(In theory, it can transmit a total of 1024 channel in a Gigabyte Ethernet environment, with a maximum of
512 inputs and 512 outputs.
(Devices in the network can be detected and configured automatically, while allowing freedom to name
devices.
(Low latency, jitter and high sample accuracy are achieved via highly precise, network synchronization
technology.
(It supports redundant connections, in the form of primary and secondary lines, making it resistant to
failures.
(It allows connections to computers over the Internet and direct IN/OUT of audio without any audio
interface device.
(It offers long-distance communications of a maximum of 100 meters between devices over CAT5e network
cables. Please note that usable cable length depends on cable type.
For more information about Dante, please visit the Audinate website.
https://www.audinate.com/
, Alternatively, the Yamaha Pro Audio website also provides a variety of information about Dante.
https://www.yamahaproaudio.com/
Dante Controller
Dante Controller is an application for making Dante network settings and routing the audio. Use the Dante
Controller for configuring the complex signal routing in a Dante network. Relevant information is available
on the following website.
https://www.yamahaproaudio.com/
NOTE
(Only the DM3 is capable of using Dante. DM3 STANDARD cannot be used.
(DM3 offers 16 IN, 16 OUT and 24-bit, 32-bit options for transmitting audio signals.
(DM3 also offers 5 options for latency--0.25 msec, 0.5 msec/1.0 msec/2.0 msec and 5.0 msec.
Do not use the EEE function (*) of a network switch inside a Dante network.
Please do not use the EEE function (*) of network switches in a Dante network. Although power management
should be negotiated automatically in switches that support EEE, some switches do not perform the
negotiation properly. This may cause EEE to be enabled in Dante networks when it is not appropriate,
resulting in poor synchronization performance and occasional dropouts. Therefore we strongly recommend
that:
(If you use managed switches, ensure that they allow EEE to be disabled. Make sure that EEE is disabled on
all ports used for real-time Dante traffic.
(If you use unmanaged switches, make sure to not use network switches that support the EEE function,
since EEE operation cannot be disabled in these switches.
342
Appendix > Comments
*EEE (Energy Efficient Ethernet) is a technology that reduces switch power consumption during periods of
low network traffic. It is also known as Green Ethernet and IEEE802.3az.
343
Appendix > Comments
The 1-knob EQ mode mechanism
The 1-knob EQ mode allows you to adjust several parameters at once with just the turn of a knob. It makes
EQ adjustments quick and easy. The console contains Presets that are configured for EQ to suit a variety of
instruments. You can use the 1-knob EQ mode to adjust the EQ settings that are saved in Presets without
disturbing the overall balance of your mix.
You can even configure EQ settings using manual mode, then switch to 1-knob EQ mode (Intensity) to adjust
the amount of EQ applied to the channel. In this case you can use the [TOUCH AND TURN] knob to adjust
from 0% (no EQ applied) to 50% (the EQ settings you made using manual mode) and 100% (increased
intensity of the EQ settings you made using manual mode). This makes it very easy to fine-tune your EQ
settings with just one knob.
If 1-knob EQ mode type is set to Vocal or Loudness, you can adjust the EQ curve between 0% (no EQ applied)
and 100% (maximum EQ applied).
344
Appendix > Comments
The 1-knob COMP mode mechanism
The 1-knob COMP mode allows you to adjust the amount applied to the compressor with just the turn of a
knob.
By turning the [TOUCH AND TURN] knob or the 1-knob level slider to the right, more compression is applied.
This function can deliver a more consistent sound by evening out differences in volume of components of the
sound. For example, it is effective when adjusting the volume just with faders or gain results in clipping.
1-knob COMP takes the worry out of making difficult compressor settings by automatically adjusting the
balance of Threshold, Ratio and Out Gain.
345
Appendix > Comments
Port to Port function
The Port to Port function allows direct patching between IN/OUT ports. This function allows direct routing
between the analog IN/OUT ports of the DM3 series with an external Dante device, without going via a DM3
mixer.
For example, say a drummer wants to adjust monitor balance herself, this allows her to exercise the
functions of both a personal monitor mixer and an I/O device, reducing the equipment required. By
configuring the DM3 series as a remote I/O device, you can share and remotely control the FOH console and
head amp.

Make the IP addresses the same via the Static IP mode. If using the DHCP mode, use a
router with a DHCP server function and enable the DHCP function on the computer.
The fader does not work.
There is a discrepancy in the
movement of motorized faders.
Turn on the console while holding down the Home key on the top panel. Then run

MIDI Data Format
This explains the formats that the DM3 series can interpret, send and receive.
Control change (Bn)
It can transmit arbitrarily assigned parameter.
<<Receive>>
Received when Control Change Rx is ON and Rx Ch matches, and controls parameters according to the
settings of the Control Change Event.
<<Send>>
Sent on the channel of Tx Ch when parameters configured with the Control Change Event are operated and
Control Change Tx is ON.
Control Change No. 0 and 32 are used for Bank Select in Program Change, so parameters cannot be assigned
to them.

Program change (Cn)
<<Receive>>
When Single is selected and Program change Rx is ON, it is received when Rx Ch matches. However, when
Omni is ON, it is received regardless of the channel. When it is received, the scene memory is recalled
according to the settings of the Program Change Event.
<<Send>>
When Program change Tx is ON and scene memory is recalled, it is sent according to the settings of the
Program Change Event. If Single is selected, it is sent on the Tx Ch channel. If Multi is selected, when the
recalled scene memory is allocated to more than one Program Change No., the smallest Program Change No.
is sent for each MIDI Ch.
Either Single or Multi can be selected when setting Mode.
If Single
Rx Ch and Omni Ch or Tx Ch can be selected. When Bank is turned ON, you can specify the Bank in Bank
Select. Up to 16 Banks can be set.
If Multi
Rx Ch and Tx Ch become the same. An assignment table is configured for each MIDI Ch. Bank Select cannot
be used. Up to 16 MIDI Chs can be set.
