2 Chapter 1—Welcome to the 01V

Welcome to the 01V

Thank you for choosing the Yamaha 01V Digital Mixing Console. Based on the highly successful Yamaha digital mixer series, the Yamaha 01V has been designed with MIDI musicians and small sound reinforcement applications in mind, although its versatility, compactness, and ease-of-use will appeal to both professional and semiprofessional users.

About this Owner’s Manual

This Owner’s Manual contains all the information you’ll need in order to operate your 01V Digital Mixing Console. Use the table of contents to find general information and familiarize yourself with the organization of this manual, and use the index to locate specific items. A glossary of 01V-related jargon is provided on page 293.

Each chapter covers a specific section of the 01V. The Input Channels Chapter, for example, explains all about input channels, while the Scene Memories Chapter deals with scene memories. The content of each chapter should be fairly obvious from its title. Items such as EQ and dynamics, which are available on input channels, aux sends, and the stereo output, are explained in their own chapters.

Where possible, the individual sections of a chapter are organized in order of signal flow. The Input Channel Chapter, for example, starts with the input connectors and works through each input channel function, finishing up at the buses.

01V Installation

Site the 01V on a stable surface, somewhere that complies with the important information at the front of this manual. The 01V can be rack-mounted using an optional rack-mount kit.
