Main changes 3
Various effects sold as Add-On Effects packages for Yamaha
digital mixing consoles (such as DM2000) are now included as
standard. To use the VCM effects, you must first specify the
number of VCM effects you wish to use to limit the number of
available GEQ modules.
The VCM effects employ Virtual Circuitry Modeling technol-
ogy, and include compressors and EQs that model the charac-
teristics of analog circuits, OpenDeck, which emulates tape
compression created by open reel tapes; and the REV-X reverb
effect, which is based on a newly-developed algorithm and
provides richly reverberant sound quality with smooth attenu-
ation. For more information on the VCM effects, please refer
to the Appendix on page 18.
To use the VCM effects, you must first specify the number of
VCM effects you wish to use in the following DSP CONFIG
screen to limit the number of available GEQ modules.
Note
• To use VCM effects on a single effect module, you must
disable two GEQ modules.
• If you change this setting, the effect and GEQ output will be tem-
porarily muted.
• The disabled GEQ modules still enable you to control the param-
eters, but the output will be muted.
• You can recall these new effects in the same way as the existing
effects. That is, you recall the desired effects from the Effect
library.
• Please note that if you mix a signal processed with VCM effects
with a signal that utilizes a different routing, a difference in time
resulting from the different signal paths may cause a comb filter
effect (a phenomena in which the level of some frequencies
decreases).
In addition to the CH Copy function in the CH COPY screen,
which copies channels globally, a CH Move function that
moves channels is now available.
The CH Move function enables you to move any input or out-
put channels to specified channel locations. When the channels
are moved, the channels between the move source and destina-
tion channels will move forward or backward accordingly. To
use the CH Move function, you can either use the CH COPY
screen or operate the keys on the top panel.
