An overview of the QL series
Owner’s Manual

An overview of the
QL series
Features
QL series digital mixing consoles create high-quality,
refined, live-sound environments. These consoles carry
forward the digital evolution of a broad array of advanced
concepts that helps to make the consoles easy and
intuitive to use. The built-in effect processor and an
optional I/O devices can accommodate the most
demanding situations at the highest level of quality, while
retaining the flexibility necessary to configure a system
that meets your needs.
User interface friendly to newcomers
but familiar to seasoned users
The Selected Channel section located to the right of the
display lets you use the knobs to control the main
parameters (gain, EQ, dynamics threshold, etc.) for a
particular channel. This section can be operated much
like a module in an analog mixer.
The display is a touch screen. You can turn functions on
or off or select items simply by touching buttons or knobs
on the screen. You can use the [TOUCH AND TURN]
knob to adjust the parameters of the selected knob.
Groups of channels routed to the top-panel faders can
be selected and switched easily in a
“Fader Bank”. The
Fader Bank holds input and output channel banks, as
well as custom fader banks. The custom fader banks
enable you to select various combinations of channels,
regardless of channel types. Each channel strip offers
easy visual identification. The channel name appears on
a display, and an indicator shows the channel color. You
can adjust the brightness of each indicator across a
broad range to accommodate dimly-lit environments.
Mix parameter settings, including gain and phantom
power for input channels, can be stored and recalled as
“scenes.” All faders on the panel are moving faders.
When you recall a scene, the recorded fader locations
will be reproduced immediately.
Flexible system configuration with
Dante
The Ethernet-compatible Dante audio network protocol
facilitates connecting QL series consoles to external
devices, such as the Rio3224-D I/O device. A connected
I/O device that has been assigned a unique unit ID will
automatically be recognized and will facilitate patching
functions.
Using an I/O rack, you can configure a redundant
network to defend against unforeseen difficulties that
can arise in large-scale Dante networks. If multiple QL
units share the same I/O device, the gain compensation
function will maintain network audio streams at a
constant level to help you enjoy the benefits of a
large-scale sound system.
The Dante Virtual Soundcard software enables you to
carry out multi-channel recording to DAW software
installed on a computer. Consequently, no other audio
interface is needed.
Integration of mixer and I/O device
with port-to-port functionality
Direct “port-to-port” patching functionality between input
ports and output ports allows direct routing of QL analog
inputs and outputs to/from external Dante devices
without passing through the mixing channels.
Further, you can remotely control the head amps from
other CL series and QL series consoles, allowing QL
series consoles to be used as remote I/O devices. You
can use recall safe in the port to port function to remove
a head amp from scene recall in QL series consoles so
that it is controlled only from another CL series or QL
series console.
Ultra-realistic digital reproduction of
analog sound by PREMIUM RACK
The QL series features PREMIUM RACK, which
employs VCM technology. This technology models
analog circuitry on a component level to faithfully
reproduce amazing analog sounds. PREMIUM RACK
creates authentic sounds by modeling and faithfully
capturing the sonic characteristics of analog circuitry
fine-tuned to be faithful to the original sound. The QL’s
PREMIUM RACK includes 8 models, including a Portico
5033 EQ/Portico 5043 Compressor by Rupert Neve
Designs, a U76 Compressor, an Opt-2A Leveling
Amplifier, etc.
Sonic flexibility from versatile effects
and GEQ rack
Independent of the PREMIUM RACK, high-quality
multi-effect processors are built into your QL series
console, with up to eight available simultaneously.
Effects such as reverb, delay, multiband compression,
and various modulation effects can be routed via internal
buses or inserted into the desired channel.
In addition to the effects, the QL series features a GEQ
rack. This includes a 31BandGEQ, a Flex15GEQ, an
8BandPEQ, an 8ch Automixer and a 16ch Automixer
function–each of which can be inserted into any channel
or bus. The Flex15GEQ allows you to adjust the gain for
any 15 of the 31 bands. Automixer allows you to reduce
noise and maintain feedback margins, by automating the
gain distribution for multiple microphones, freeing the
operator from making constant fader adjustments. To
use effects or the graphic EQ, you mount them in virtual
racks displayed on the touch screen. The
currently-mounted modules can be seen at a glance,
and you can switch modules and change input/output
patching in an intuitive manner.

I/O card and processing card
expansion
The rear panel provides two slots in which separately
sold mini-YGDAI cards can be installed. You can add
inputs and outputs by installing AD cards, DA cards, or
digital I/O cards in these slots. You can also expand
processing or effects by installing a DSP card.
Cascade connections in the digital
domain
You can cascade a second QL series unit or another
digital mixer, such as the Yamaha CL series, M7CL,
PM5D or LS9, connected via a digital I/O card installed
in a slot or a Dante connector. (Cascade connections via
a Dante connector are possible only between QL series
consoles.) You can cascade any of the MIX, MATRIX,
STEREO (L/R), MONO, and CUE (L/R) buses.
Recorder function useful for sound
checks and mix recording
The QL series features a USB memory recorder function
that enables you to record output from STEREO or MIX
buses onto a USB flash drive. It also enables you to play
audio files that reside on a USB flash drive by assigning
the files to input channels or monitor outputs. The MP3
format (MPEG-1 Audio Layer-3) is supported for
recording. For playback, MP3, WMA (Windows Media
Audio), and MPEG-4 AAC (Advanced Audio Coding)
formats are supported. This function can be useful if you
want to record certain bus mix outputs or play music for
a sound check through speakers.
Security functions at user or system
level
Functionality can be restricted for users other than the
administrator at three levels of security: administrator,
guest, and user. Passwords can be specified for the
administrator and for users to help prevent important
settings from being changed accidentally.
Information specific to each user (user level, system
settings, and user-defined key/knob settings) can be
stored on the unit or on a USB flash drive as a
“user
authentication key.
” By loading your own user
authentication key, you can instantly reconfigure the unit
for your own ideal operating environment.
Help file downloadable to the unit
You can download from the website a Help file that
explains the parameters and messages displayed on the
screen. Once you load the Help file, it will be stored
inside the unit so that you can use the Help function at
any time.

About network connections
About Dante
This product features Dante technology as a protocol to
transmit audio signals. Dante is a network protocol
developed by Audinate. It is designed to deliver
multi-channel audio signals at various sampling and bit
rates, as well as device control signals over a Giga-bit
Ethernet (GbE) network. Dante also offers the following
benefits:
• It transmits up to 512 in/512 out, for a total 1024
channels (in theory) of audio over a GbE network.
(The QL series features QL5: 64 in/64 out, QL1: 32
in/32 out with a 24/32-bit resolution.)
• Dante-enabled devices will automatically configure
their network interfaces and find each other on the
network. You can label Dante devices and their audio
channels with descriptive names that make sense to
you.
•
Dante uses high accuracy network synchronization
standards to achieve sample-accurate playback with
extremely low latency and jitter. Five types of latency
are offered by the QL series: 0.25 msec, 0.5 msec, 1.0
msec, 2.0 msec, and 5.0 msec.
• A primary circuit and a secondary circuit provide
redundancy in the event of a problem.
• Connecting a Dante-enabled device to a computer
using an Ethernet connection enables you to directly
input or output audio signals without using any audio
interface devices.
• Audio can be transferred over distances up to 100
meters* between devices using CAT5e network
cables.
* Maximum practical distance may vary according to
the cable used.
Visit the Audinate website for more details on Dante.
http://www.audinate.com/
More information on Dante is also posted on the Yamaha
Pro Audio website:
http://www.yamahaproaudio.com/
NOTE
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.
* 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.
About Dante Controller
Dante Controller is a software application that allows
configuration and audio routing of Dante networks. Use
this application if you wish to set up complicated signal
routings on a Dante network. More information is posted
on the following website.

Connecting to I/O devices
This section explains how to connect the QL series to I/O
devices (such as Rio3224-D) in a daisy chain network
and in a star network (redundant network). Before
connecting I/O devices, first perform “Setting up the
Dante network” (see page 34) and then turn off the
power to the QL series console.
Daisy chain network
A daisy chain is a wiring scheme in which multiple
devices are connected together in sequence. With this
method, networking is simple and requires no network
switches. This connection method is suitable for a
simple system with a small number of devices.
However, if a large number of devices are connected in
this way, the latency value must be increased. Also, if a
connection is broken in a daisy chain network, the signal
flow is interrupted at that point and no signal will be
transferred beyond that point.
Connecting to I/O devices
Owner’s Manual
31
Connecting QL series consoles and I/O
devices
Use the Dante connectors on the QL series console and
I/O devices to connect them as follows.
Setting rotary switches and DIP switches on
the I/O devices
Star network (redundant network)
In a star network, each device is connected to a central
switch. Using a GbE-compatible network switch enables
you to configure a wide-band, large-scale network. We
recommend a network switch that gives you the ability to
control and monitor the network (such as QoS, the
ability to assign priority to data flows - e.g., clock
synchronization or audio transmission on certain data
circuits).
With this topology, it is common to configure a redundant
network so that communication can continue without
affecting the audio even if an unexpected network
problem should occur.
About redundant networks
A redundant network consists of two circuits, a primary
circuit and a secondary circuit. Normally, the network
operates on the primary circuit. However, if the primary
connection is broken, the secondary circuit will
automatically take over communications. Therefore,
using a redundant network with a star topology is better
for increasing communication stability compared to a
daisy chain network.
Connecting QL series consoles and I/O
devices
Use the Dante connectors on the QL series console and
I/O devices to connect them as follows.

Audio input/output
connections
Analog input connections
INPUT jacks on the console and I/O devices are used
mainly to connect microphones or monaural line-level
devices.
Analog output connections
To the OMNI OUT jacks on the QL series and the
OUTPUT jacks on I/O devices, you can patch the output
signals from output channels [MIX, MATRIX, STEREO
(L/R), MONO (C)], monitor signals (MONITOR OUT
L/R/C channels), and the direct out signals of the input
channels. For information about patches, refer to
“Patching the mixer output to the I/O device” (see
page 35) in the Quick Guide section.
The console’s front panel has a PHONES OUT jack for
monitoring, and this jack always lets you monitor the
signal that is selected as the monitoring source. By
assigning the MONITOR OUT L/R/C channels to the
desired output jacks, you can also monitor the same
signal through external speakers.

Port-to-port function
The port-to-port function enables direct patching
between input ports and output ports. With this function,
the QL analog inputs and outputs can be directly routed
to/from external Dante devices without passing through
the mixing channels. If both a monitor console and I/O
device are required on the side of a stage, a single QL
series console can achieve both functions, reducing the
necessary equipment. In addition, by setting the QL
series as a remote I/O device as well as a monitor
console, the FOH console can share and remotely
control the head amps.
Digital input/output connections
Use the DIGITAL OUT jack to send the QL’s internal
signals to an external digital audio device. When the QL
is in the default state, the output signal of the STEREO
channel is patched to the DIGITAL OUT jack, which
enables you to record the main mix onto a CD recorder
or other device.
You can connect this jack to the AES/EBU jack on an I/O
device, such as Rio3224-D. Also, by installing separately
sold mini-YGDAI I/O cards in slots 1–2, you can add
input/output jacks to the QL or connect speaker
processor units.
Installing an optional card
Before you install I/O cards in slots 1–2, you must check
the Yamaha website to determine whether the card is
compatible with the QL series, and to verify the total
number of Yamaha or third-party cards that can be
installed in combination with that card.
http://www.yamahaproaudio.com/
Follow the steps below to install an optional mini-YGDAI
card.
1. Make sure that the power is turned off.
Caution
Before connecting a separately sold mini-YGDAI I/O
card to the QL, make sure to turn off the power switch

Could MUTE MASTER be turned on for the channel
assigned to a MUTE group?
Sound is distorted.
Is the word clock set correctly?
Is the GAIN of the internal head amp, external head
amp, or I/O device set to an appropriate level?
Was Gain Compensation turned on when analog
gain is not appropriate? Or, was the analog gain
raised to an extreme while the Gain Compensation is
turned on?
First turn the Gain Compensation function off, set the
analog gain to an appropriate level, and then turn Gain
Compensation back on.
Could the digital gain be set to an extremely high set-
ting?
Could the fader of the input channel be raised too
high?
Could the STEREO channel fader be raised too
high?
Could the EQ gain be set to an extremely high set-
ting?
Is the latency set too low on the DANTE SETUP
screen?
Sound is output even though it is not patched to an
output channel.
Could you have assigned an input channel to direct
out?
Could you have assigned an output channel as the
insert out?
The volume of a specific channel rises and falls.
Could DYNAMICS 1/2 be set to ducking or to an
extreme parameter value?
Operating a fader does not control the level as you
expect.
Could the function access area indicate MIX/MTRX
ON FADER? And could SENDS ON FADER mode
be engaged?
Only the sound of a specific channel is heard from
the MONITOR OUT or PHONES jack.
Could a [CUE] key be on?
Noise occurs from an externally connected recorder
or other device.
Is the word clock set correctly?
Could the input signal be unsynchronized?
Could the oscillator or talkback be turned on?
High frequency range is attenuated.
Could emphasis be applied? This problem will occur
if the input signal status does not match the empha-
sis data.
Could EQ be applied?
Troubleshooting
Owner’s Manual
49
There is insufficient headroom, especially when EQ
boost is applied.
Use the EQ attenuator function to lower the level.
An input signal is being input, but there is no
monitor output.
Could the DIMMER be applied?
Could the MONITOR CH be assigned even though
its output port has not been connected to an external
device?
Signal is delayed.
Check whether the delay setting for each INPUT
channel and OUTPUT PORT is set correctly.
Rotating a MIX knob does not change the send level
to the MIX bus.
Is the TO MIX SEND ON/OFF button turned on?
Is the MIX [ON] key turned on?
Is the MIX bus set to VARI type?
If the send point is set to POST, could the fader have
been lowered?
Cannot save scene memory or various library data.
Are you attempting to save the data to a read-only
scene/library or a protected scene?
Could user level restrictions have been specified?
Cannot save to a USB flash drive.
Could the USB flash drive be protected?
Does the USB flash drive have enough free capacity
to save the data?
When formatting the USB flash drive, format it in
FAT32 or FAT16 format.
Could the recorder be playing back?
Cannot transmit or receive MIDI data.
Is the MIDI PORT selected correctly?
Are the transmission and reception modes and chan-
nels selected correctly?
Has an event corresponding to the particular Pro-
gram Change message been specified?
When you recall a scene, some channels/parameters
are not updated.
Could that channel or parameter be set to Recall
Safe?
Could FOCUS be set in such a way that the channels
or parameters will not be updated?
Could user level restrictions have been specified?
You turn on a CUE button in the EFFECT EDIT screen,
but it is automatically defeated.
This is defeated automatically when you switch
screens in the display.
When you recall a scene, it takes a certain amount of
time for the faders to stop.
Could you have specified a fade time?
The panel LEDs or LCD display are too dark/too
bright.
This can be adjusted in the SETUP screen.
Signal level of a specific frequency is low.
Could the EQ gain be turned down excessively?
Routing a signal through a GEQ or EFFECT will
delay it relative to other signals. If this signal is mixed
with another signal that is routed via a different signal
path, a comb filtering effect will cause the level of a
specific frequency to be decreased.
Cannot control an I/O device.
Are the rotary switch and DIP switches on the I/O
devices set correctly?
Does the channel being controlled match the chan-
nel on the I/O device?
Cannot control the QL unit from QL Editor.
Is the computer connected to the unit’s Network jack
correctly?
Is the network setting on the QL unit specified cor-
rectly?
For details on settings, refer to the QL Editor installa-
tion guide posted on our website.
Cannot control the QL unit from StageMix/
MonitorMix.
Is the WiFi setting in QL StageMix/MonitorMix set
correctly?
Is the unit’s Network jack on the QL unit connected to
the WiFi access point correctly?
Is the network setting on the QL unit specified cor-
rectly?
Refer to the QL StageMix Owner’s Manual on our
website.
In the LCD display, there are some black points
(unlit) or white points (always lit).
Unfortunately, this is a common characteristic of
TFT-LCDs. This is not a malfunction.
In the channel name display, because of the response
speed of the GR meter display on each channel’s
voice input and output, the indication may be weak
or different than expected.
This is a common characteristic of LCDs and not a
malfunction. Depending on the input source, this
phenomenon may be more pronounced.
