Introducing the MTX5-D
• A signal processor suitable for small or mid-sized
installed systems
The MTX5-D is a signal processor suitable for small or mid-
sized systems such as retail establishments or banquet halls. In
addition to a 34 ch. x 16 ch. matrix mixer, it provides 3-band
parametric EQ, compressor/gate, auto gain control, eight pri-
ority duckers, and eight feedback suppressors. For the output
stages, it provides numerous high-performance high-quality
processors, such as 4-band parametric EQ, delay, and speaker
processor.
• Use Dante to construct small-scale or large-scale
systems
Audinate’s “Dante” audio network protocol is used to transfer
audio signals over extended distances via Ethernet cable.
MTX-MRX Editor makes it easy to specify the audio routing
between the MTX5-D and Dante models of the XMV.
• Newly-developed “YDIF” digital audio transmis-
sion format
“YDIF” is a digital audio transmission format that uses Ether-
net cable to send and receive up to 16 channels of audio and
word clock. You can use Ethernet cables up to 30 meters long
to easily make connections between devices.
• Slot for installing a Mini-YGDAI card
A separately sold Mini-YGDAI card can be installed to flexi-
bly add analog inputs/outputs or digital inputs/outputs.
• Versatile input/output and SD memory card slot
In addition to eight high-quality monaural mic/line inputs and
two stereo line inputs, digital input/output via “YDIF” or
“Dante” allows a maximum total of 30 simultaneous input
channels. An SD memory card slot for playback is also pro-
vided; allowing MP3/WAV audio files saved on the SD mem-
ory card to be played back. In addition to eight channels of
analog monaural output, up to 16 channels of digital output
can be obtained via “YDIF” or “Dante.”
• Support for external controls
By connecting a “DCP” series dedicated wall-mounted control
panel to the [DCP] connector, you can easily control the vol-
ume of multiple zones or switch presets. Daisy-chain connec-
tion via Ethernet cable allows up to eight “DCP” series control
panels to be connected. The total cable length from the
MTX5-D to the farthest control panel can be up to 200 meters,
and power is also supplied, allowing you to place the control
panel in the ideal location for the room. A NETWORK con-
nector and [GPI] connector are also provided for controlling
the unit from an AMX/Crestron or other touch panel device.
• Dedicated “MTX-MRX Editor” application soft-
ware for designing the entire system
“MTX-MRX Editor” is application software for editing the
parameters of the MTX5-D. Using operating screens that
reflect the workflow of designing the installation, this soft-
ware makes it easy to design a system and make (or adjust)
settings. A speaker library of Yamaha-manufactured speakers
is also built-in, making it easy to choose settings that will
maximize the performance of your speakers.
• iPhone app support
A dedicated iPhone app makes it easy to control the volume
and manage presets in the same way as when using the dedi-
cated wall-mounted control panel. You can use your iPhone/
iPod touch to easily control the sound system of a retail loca-
tion or a banquet hall.
MTX-MRX Editor is software for the Windows operating sys-
tem that allows unified construction and control of systems that
use the MTX series.
