Software packages are available for adding unique and valuable effect programs to the
PM5D internal effect programs. You can edit, store and recall ADD-ON EFFECTS on the
console in the usual way. In addition, a special GUI is available in the PM5D editor to
manage these effects.
The names of programs or menus incorporated in ADD-ON EFFECTS are for descriptive purposes only. Reference to product names, trademarks, artists and songs is made for the sole purpose of identifying
products and sounds studied for modeling and describing the sound nuances Yamaha attempted to create through use of its proprietary technology. Such reference does not constitute representations that
they physically possess equal qualities, and does not imply any cooperation or endorsement by such manufacturers or artists. The products, trademarks are the property of their respective owners.
CHANNEL STRIP PACKAGE (AE-011)
This Package includes 5 models that
employ VCM (Virtual Circuitry
Modeling) technology to recreate
the sound and characteristics of
several classic compression and EQ units from the 70's.
• Includes five models that employ VCM technology to recreate the
sound and characteristics of classic compression and EQ units from
the 70’s.
• Fine-tuned by leading engineers, and featuring carefully selected
parameters in a simple interface.
• Compressor 276 (mono)/Compressor 276S (stereo): Recreate the
fast response, frequency characteristics, and tube-amp saturation of
the most in-demand analog compressors for studio use.
• Compressor 260 (mono)/Compressor 260S (stereo): Features
faithful modeling of the solid-state VCA and RMS detection circuitry
of the late 70’s for live sound reinforcement applications.
• Equalizer 601: Delivers the unique characteristics of 70’s analog EQ
circuitry, featuring graphical editing capability on both the console
and PC displays.
MASTER STRIP PACKAGE (AE-021)
The Master Strip Package
Open Deck employs Virtual
Circuitry Modeling
technology to recreate both the analog circuitry and
tape characteristics that shaped the sound of open-
reel tape recorders.
• Employs VCM technology to recreate both the analog
circuitry and tape characteristics that shaped the sound of
open-reel tape recorders.
• The Open Deck provides models of four machine types:
Swiss ’70, Swiss ’78, Swiss ’85, and American ’70. You can
even combine different record and playback decks for a
wider range of variation.
• You also have a choice of “old” and “new” tape types, tape
speed, bias, and EQ settings that can vary the “focus” of the
sound, distortion, and saturation characteristics.
REVERB PACKAGE (AE-031)
The REV-X programs feature the
richest reverberation and
smoothest decay available, based
on years of dedicated research and development.
• Reverb ADD-ON EFFECTS employing the latest REV-X
algorithms first introduced in Yamaha’s SPX2000
Professional Multi Effect Processor.
• The REV-X programs feature the richest
reverberation and smoothest decay available, based
on years of dedicated research and development.
• Hall, Room, and Plate programs are provided.
• The Hall and Room programs have a very open
sound, while Plate delivers a brighter tonality that is
ideal for vocals.
The effects in this package are supplied
as internal effects on the PM5D.
SURROUND POST PACKAGE (AE-041) Coming Soon
The Surround Post Package uses Yamaha’s Interactive Spatial Sound
Processing technology that takes full advantage of the 96-kHz audio
DSP power of the PM5D. The AE-041 will include three effect
programs: Room ER, Auto Doppler and Field Rotation. These unique
effect programs not only can vastly simplify the complex operation in Post-Production
requirements, but also can be used creatively in the musical context.
VINTAGE STOMP PACKAGE (AE-051) Coming Soon
In this package Virtual Circuitry Modeling technology
delivers faithful models of classic much-in-demand stomp
boxes from the 70's that helped shape the sound of music
history. The AE-051 package will include three phaser models: the MAX100, Vintage
Phaser, and Dual Phase. Although the vintage equipments are hard to come by, they are in
considerable demand for both live performance and studio production. All models
feature graphical user interfaces that reflect the image of the times.
What is VCM technology?
VCM (Virtual Circuitry Modeling) technology actually
models the characteristics of analog circuitry – right
down to the last resistor and capacitor. VCM technology
goes well beyond simply analyzing and modeling
electronic components and emulating the sound of old equipment. It’s capable of
capturing subtleties that simple digital simulations cannot even approach, while
actually creating ideal examples of sought-after vintage gear.
What is ISSP?
ISSP stands for “Interactive Spatial Sound Processing,” and is a
new sound effect system created originally by Yamaha. Designed
through comprehensive and extensive research, this technology
offers unparalleled reality, operability and originality. It delivers
unprecedented soundfield positioning and highly realistic sound
source movement effects, with simple operation that allows simulations.
Options
The PM5D’s real I/O versatility comes in the form of four mini-YGDAI expansion slots. The expansion slots are 24 bit/96 kHz
compatible, so you can select mini YGDAI plug-in cards to create the input/output configuration that’s perfect for your needs.
MY16-C CobraNet™ Expansion Card
The MY16-C CobraNet™* expansion card allows transmission and reception of up to 32 channels (16 in/16 out) of uncompressed digital
audio data. CobraNet™ is an audio networking system developed by Peak Audio (a division of Cirrus Logic, Inc.) that allows real-time
transmission and reception of multiple channels of uncompressed digital audio signals via a Fast Ethernet (100 megabits/sec.) network.
The Y96K contains many of Waves “greatest hits”, including Waves
Renaissance Compressor and EQ, TrueVerb reverb, L1 Ultramaximizer,
SuperTap delay, and DeEsser. These processors are all available in
addition to your on-board effects.
