An overview of the CL series
Owner’s Manual

An overview of the
CL series
Features
CL 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, including Yamaha’s
exclusive “Centralogic
TM
” control interface, which helps to
make the consoles easy and intuitive to use.
The built-in effect processor and an I/O device 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
All channels routed to the top-panel faders are organized
into a “Fader Bank” that enables you to select and switch a
group of channels easily. 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.
The SELECTED CHANNEL section located to the left of
the display lets you use the knobs to control the main
parameters (gain, EQ, dynamics threshold, bus send levels,
etc.) for a particular channel. This section can be operated
much like a module in an analog mixer.
In the center of the top panel is the Centralogic section,
which enables you to control eight channels at once. You
can control fader, cue, on/off and other settings for the
eight channels or for DCA groups recalled to this section
by pressing a single key.
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.
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 CL 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 device, you can configure a redundant
network to defend against unforeseen difficulties that can
arise in large-scale Dante networks. If multiple CL 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 driver enables you
to carry out multi-channel recording to DAW software
installed on a computer. Consequently, no other audio
interface is needed.
Ultra-realistic digital reproduction of
analog sound by PREMIUM RACK
The CL 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 stunning sounds
by modeling and faithfully capturing the sonic
characteristics of analog circuitry fine-tuned to be faithful
to the original sound. The CL’s PREMIUM RACK includes
seven types, 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 CL 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 CL series features a GEQ rack.
A 31BandGEQ, a Flex15GEQ, an 8BandPEQ, an 8ch
Automixer and a 16ch Automixer are included and can be
inserted into any output bus. The Flex15GEQ allows you to
adjust the gain for any 15 of the 31 bands. Since two GEQ
units can be mounted in one virtual rack, a total of up to 32
GEQ units can be used simultaneously. 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

Complete support tools
The CL-series can be used with a variety of utility software.
CL Editor, which can be installed on Windows or Mac
computers, enables you to edit the unit’s parameter settings.
It can also operate as a stand-alone and lets you set
parameters off-line without connecting to the console.
CL StageMix, an application for iPads, offers remote
control of a networked CL series console from anywhere
within wireless range via an intuitive graphical interface.
The software has been specifically designed to allow
engineers to adjust EQ while monitoring mixes from the
performers’ positions on stage, or to control mix
parameters from various spots in the venue while listening
to the sound.
Console File Converter is an application that converts
PM5D/M7CL/LS9 settings files to or from the CL series
settings file format. You can use data from other models on
the CL series.

I/O card and processing card expansion
The rear panel provides three 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 CL series unit or a digital mixer,
such as the Yamaha M7CL, PM5D or LS9, connected via a
digital I/O card installed in a slot.
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 CL 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
in the console or on a USB flash drive as a “user
authentication key.” By loading your own user
authentication key, you can instantly set up the ideal
operating environment for yourself.
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 download the Help file, it will be stored inside the unit
so that you can use the Help function at any time.
About the models
The CL series is available in three models: CL5, CL3, and
CL1. Each model features a different number of monaural
input channels and top-panel channel strips. In addition,
the CL5 features an Output Meter section. The CL3 and

Basic operation of
the CL series
This section explains the basic operations of the CL series.
CL series operations are divided into three main categories:
• Controlling selected channels
(SELECTED CHANNEL section)
• Controlling eight channels as a group
(Centralogic section)
• Using the faders on the top panel
(Channel Strip section)
In general, you will operate the CL series for mixing using
a combination of these operations.
Controlling selected
channels (SELECTED
CHANNEL section)
The SELECTED CHANNEL section located to the left of
the display corresponds to the mixer module on a
conventional analog mixer, and allows you to manually
adjust all the major parameters of the currently-selected
channel. Operations in this section will affect the channel
that was most recently selected by its [SEL] key. The basic
procedure is as follows:
1. Press the Bank Select key of a bank that
includes the channel that you want to control.
Select one of the preset or custom fader banks in the
Channel Strip section or Centralogic section.
2. Use a [SEL] key to select the channel that you
want to control.
To select a MIX or MATRIX channel, use the Bank
Select keys to recall the desired channel to the
Centralogic section, and then press the [SEL] key for
the desired channel.
3. Press any one of the knobs in the SELECTED
CHANNEL section.
The SELECTED CHANNEL VIEW screen for the
selected channel will appear. You can view the actual
setting values on screen.
Even if a different screen is selected, the knobs of the
SELECTED CHANNEL section always affect the
currently-selected channel. In this case, a mini popup
window indicating the value of that parameter will
appear on screen when you operate a knob.
4. Use the knobs of the SELECTED CHANNEL
section and the buttons in the SELECTED
CHANNEL VIEW screen to edit the parameters
of the selected channel.
Controlling eight channels as
a group (Centralogic section)
The Centralogic section located below the touch screen lets
you recall and simultaneously control a set of up to eight
input channels, output channels, or DCA groups. Use the
Bank Select keys on the right side of the Centralogic
section to select the channels that you want to control.
When you press the keys, the corresponding channels or
DCA groups will be assigned to the Centralogic section,
and the touch screen will display the OVERVIEW screen
for those channels. The OVERVIEW screen displays the
main parameters, which you can control using the
Centralogic section’s faders and keys. The basic procedure
is as follows:
1. Use a Bank Select key to select the channel or
DCA group that you want to control.
Press the [INPUT] key to select from channel groups
labeled at the left of the Bank Select keys, and press the
[OUTPUT] key to select from channel groups labeled
at the right of the Bank Select keys.
When you press the Bank Select key, the touch screen
will display the OVERVIEW screen, and the
parameters of the eight channels you selected will
appear.
NOTE
When the SELECTED CHANNEL VIEW screen is
displayed, you can switch to the OVERVIEW screen by
pressing any of the multifunction knobs 1–8. This is
convenient when you want to quickly switch to the
OVERVIEW screen while leaving the same channels or
DCA groups selected for control.
2. Use the controls of the Centralogic section
and the fields in the OVERVIEW screen to
control the channels.
NOTE
• The bottom line of the OVERVIEW screen shows the
channels or DCA groups that can be controlled by the
faders, [ON] keys and [CUE] keys of the Centralogic
section.
• The top line of the OVERVIEW screen shows the channels
that can be controlled by the multifunction knobs 1–8.
Controlling another set of eight channels
in the OVERVIEW screen
You can retain channels or DCA groups controlled by the
faders, [ON] keys, meters, [CUE] keys and [SEL] keys of
the Centralogic section, and switch to another group of
eight channels for control in the OVERVIEW screen. In
this case, the multifunction knobs will control a different
set of eight channels than the Centralogic section’s
controls.
1. Press the Bank Select key for the channels or
DCA group that you want to retain for the
Centralogic section, and hold it down for two
seconds or longer.
The LED of the Bank Select key will start blinking.
The blinking indicates that the corresponding
channels or DCA groups are now retained for the
Centralogic section.
Using the top panel (Channel Strip section)
Owner’s Manual
29
2. Press a Bank Select key to select the eight
channels (other than the DCA groups) that
you want to control in the OVERVIEW screen.
The Bank Select key will light. The lit status indicates
that the corresponding channels can be controlled in
the OVERVIEW screen and by the multifunction
knobs.
3. To release the channels or DCA groups that
were retained for the Centralogic section,
press the Bank Select key you operated in step
1 once again, and hold it down until the Bank
Select key LED changes from blinking to lit.
When the Bank Select key LED changes to being lit, its
channels or DCA groups will be assigned to both the
Centralogic section and the OVERVIEW screen.
Using the top panel
(Channel Strip section)
The Channel Strip section of the top panel enables you to
control the level, gain, pan, CUE, and other parameters for
the selected channels. The basic procedure is as follows:
1. Use the Bank Select keys located on the right
of the Channel Strip section to select the
channels or DCA groups that you want to
control.
Each Bank Select key holds a “Bank,” which bundles a
group of multiple channels.
“CUSTOM” Bank Select keys enable you to assign and
recall a bank with your own assortment of the
channels or DCA groups. These banks are called
“custom fader banks.” Since the custom fader banks
enable you to assign a combination of different types
of channels, you can control different types of
channels as a group.
2. Use the controls of the Channel Strip section.
Use the channel knob to adjust a parameter selected
by the [GAIN/PAN/ASSIGN] key.
Each channel’s display indicates the
currently-assigned channel information. For the
channel display information, access SETUP→USER

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
CL series features 64 in/64 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 names that make sense to you.
•
Dante uses high accuracy network synchronization
standards to achieve sample-accurate playback with
extremely low latency and jitter. Four types of latency are
offered by the CL series: 0.25 msec, 0.5 msec, 1.0 msec,
and 5.0 msec.
• Dante supports resilient redundant connections against
unexpected network problems via primary and
secondary networks.
• Connecting a computer to Dante network 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.
By taking advantage of these benefits, you can: skip any
complicated procedures to automate connections and
setups of Dante-enabled devices; remotely control I/O
devices from a mixing console; or make multi-track
recordings to a DAW, such as Nuendo, installed on a
computer in the network.
Visit the Audinate website for more details on Dante.
http://www.audinate.com/
Additional 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 plan to connect or set up
Dante-enabled devices (such as Dante-MY16-AUD) that
do not feature CL native support, or if you wish to set up
complicated signal routings on a Dante network. More
information is posted on the following website.
http://www.yamahaproaudio.com/
To run Dante Controller, a computer must feature a
GbE-compatible Ethernet connector.
Refer to the Dante Controller owner’s manual for details on
Dante Controller.
Connecting to I/O devices
This section explains how to connect the CL series to I/O
devices (such as RIO3224-D) in a daisy chain network and
in a star network (redundant network). Before you make
connections with I/O devices, perform the steps described
in “Setting up the Dante network” (see page 40), and then
turn off the power of the CL series unit.
Daisy chain network
A daisy chain is a wiring scheme in which multiple devices
are connected together in sequence. In this way,
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, 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.
Connections
Owner’s Manual

■ Connecting I/O devices to the CL series
Make connections as shown below using the Dante
connectors of the CL series and the I/O devices, and set the
rotary switches and DIP switches of the I/O devices.
■ Rotary switch and DIP switch settings of the I/O
devices
Star network (redundant network)
In a star network, each device is connected to a central hub.
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 usual to configure a redundant
network so that even if an unexpected network problem
occurs, communication can occur without affecting the
audio.
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 would increase
communication stability relative to a daisy chain network.
■ Connecting I/O devices to the CL series
Make connections as shown below using the Dante
connectors of the CL series and the I/O devices, and set the
rotary switches and DIP switches of the I/O devices.

Audio input/output
connections
Analog input connections
The INPUT jacks on the I/O devices and the OMNI IN
jacks are used mainly to connect microphones or monaural
line-level devices.
NOTE
In the default state, the OMNI IN jacks are not patched. To
use the signals connected here as inputs, you will need to
make patch settings.
Analog output connections
To the OMNI OUT jacks on the CL series and the
OUTPUT jacks on the Rio3224-D units, 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 41)
in the Quick Guide section.
The PHONES Out jack located on the front panel is for
monitoring, which always enables you to monitor the
monitoring source signal. By assigning the MONITOR
OUT L/R/C channels to the desired output jacks, you can
also monitor the same signal through external speakers.
Digital input/output connections
Use the DIGITAL OUT jack to send the CL’s internal
signals to an external digital audio device. When the CL 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 1–3, you can add
input/output jacks to the CL or connect speaker processor
units.
Refer to the Yamaha professional audio website for the
most recent information on available I/O cards.

In this state, you should now hear sound from the
speaker system that is patched to the STEREO
channel.
If you do not hear sound, check whether the LR
meters are moving in the METER field of the function
access area.
If the LR meters are moving:
It may be that the STEREO channel is
not correctly patched to the output
jacks that are connected to your
speaker system. Check the output
port patching.
If the LR meters are not
moving:
Make sure that signals are being
routed correctly to the patched input
channels.
7. To adjust the pan/balance of the signal sent
from the input channel to the STEREO bus,

Virtual buttons displayed on the screen are called “buttons,” and virtual knobs are called “knobs.” Controls located on the panel are enclosed in square brackets [ ] (e.g., [CUE] key) to distinguish them from virtual buttons and knobs displayed on screen. For certain controls, the name of the section appears before the brackets (e.g., SCENE MEMORY [STORE] key). You must update each type of firmware separately. Owner’s Manual 7 An overview of the CL series An overview of the CL series Features CL 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, including Yamaha’s exclusive “CentralogicTM” control interface, which helps to make the consoles easy and intuitive to use. The built-in effect processor and an I/O device 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 All channels routed to the top-panel faders are organized into a “Fader Bank” that enables you to select and switch a group of channels easily. 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. The SELECTED CHANNEL section located to the left of the display lets you use the knobs to control the main parameters (gain, EQ, dynamics threshold, bus send levels, etc.) for a particular channel. This section can be operated much like a module in an analog mixer. In the center of the top panel is the Centralogic section, which enables you to control eight channels at once. You can control fader, cue, on/off and other settings for the eight channels or for DCA groups recalled to this section by pressing a single key. 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. 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 CL 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 device, you can configure a redundant network to defend against unforeseen difficulties that can arise in large-scale Dante networks. If multiple CL units 8 Owner’s Manual 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 driver enables you to carry out multi-channel recording to DAW software installed on a computer. Consequently, no other audio interface is needed. Ultra-realistic digital reproduction of analog sound by PREMIUM RACK The CL 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 stunning sounds by modeling and faithfully capturing the sonic characteristics of analog circuitry fine-tuned to be faithful to the original sound. The CL’s PREMIUM RACK includes seven types, 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 CL 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 CL series features a GEQ rack. A 31BandGEQ, a Flex15GEQ, an 8BandPEQ, an 8ch Automixer and a 16ch Automixer are included and can be inserted into any output bus. The Flex15GEQ allows you to adjust the gain for any 15 of the 31 bands. Since two GEQ units can be mounted in one virtual rack, a total of up to 32 GEQ units can be used simultaneously. 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. Complete support tools The CL-series can be used with a variety of utility software. CL Editor, which can be installed on Windows or Mac computers, enables you to edit the unit’s parameter settings. It can also operate as a stand-alone and lets you set parameters off-line without connecting to the console. CL StageMix, an application for iPads, offers remote control of a networked CL series console from anywhere within wireless range via an intuitive graphical interface. The software has been specifically designed to allow engineers to adjust EQ while monitoring mixes from the performers’ positions on stage, or to control mix parameters from various spots in the venue while listening to the sound. Console File Converter is an application that converts PM5D/M7CL/LS9 settings files to or from the CL series settings file format. You can use data from other models on the CL series. About the models I/O card and processing card expansion The rear panel provides three 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 CL series unit or a digital mixer, such as the Yamaha M7CL, PM5D or LS9, connected via a digital I/O card installed in a slot. You can cascade any of the MIX, MATRIX, STEREO (L/R), MONO, and CUE (L/R) buses.

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.

Owner’s Manual 27 Basic operation of the CL series Basic operation of the CL series This section explains the basic operations of the CL series. CL series operations are divided into three main categories: • Controlling selected channels (SELECTED CHANNEL section) • Controlling eight channels as a group (Centralogic section) • Using the faders on the top panel (Channel Strip section) In general, you will operate the CL series for mixing using a combination of these operations. Controlling selected channels (SELECTED CHANNEL section) The SELECTED CHANNEL section located to the left of the display corresponds to the mixer module on a conventional analog mixer, and allows you to manually adjust all the major parameters of the currently-selected channel. Operations in this section will affect the channel that was most recently selected by its [SEL] key. The basic procedure is as follows: 1. Press the Bank Select key of a bank that includes the channel that you want to control. Select one of the preset or custom fader banks in the Channel Strip section or Centralogic section. 2. Use a [SEL] key to select the channel that you want to control. To select a MIX or MATRIX channel, use the Bank Select keys to recall the desired channel to the Centralogic section, and then press the [SEL] key for the desired channel. 3. Press any one of the knobs in the SELECTED CHANNEL section. The SELECTED CHANNEL VIEW screen for the selected channel will appear. You can view the actual setting values on screen. Even if a different screen is selected, the knobs of the SELECTED CHANNEL section always affect the currently-selected channel. In this case, a mini popup window indicating the value of that parameter will appear on screen when you operate a knob. 4. Use the knobs of the SELECTED CHANNEL section and the buttons in the SELECTED CHANNEL VIEW screen to edit the parameters of the selected channel. 28 Owner’s Manual Controlling eight channels as a group (Centralogic section) The Centralogic section located below the touch screen lets you recall and simultaneously control a set of up to eight input channels, output channels, or DCA groups. Use the Bank Select keys on the right side of the Centralogic section to select the channels that you want to control. When you press the keys, the corresponding channels or DCA groups will be assigned to the Centralogic section, and the touch screen will display the OVERVIEW screen for those channels. The OVERVIEW screen displays the main parameters, which you can control using the Centralogic section’s faders and keys. The basic procedure is as follows: 1. Use a Bank Select key to select the channel or DCA group that you want to control. Press the [INPUT] key to select from channel groups labeled at the left of the Bank Select keys, and press the [OUTPUT] key to select from channel groups labeled at the right of the Bank Select keys. When you press the Bank Select key, the touch screen will display the OVERVIEW screen, and the parameters of the eight channels you selected will appear. NOTE When the SELECTED CHANNEL VIEW screen is displayed, you can switch to the OVERVIEW screen by pressing any of the multifunction knobs 1–8. This is convenient when you want to quickly switch to the OVERVIEW screen while leaving the same channels or DCA groups selected for control. 2. Use the controls of the Centralogic section and the fields in the OVERVIEW screen to control the channels. NOTE • The bottom line of the OVERVIEW screen shows the channels or DCA groups that can be controlled by the faders, [ON] keys and [CUE] keys of the Centralogic section. • The top line of the OVERVIEW screen shows the channels that can be controlled by the multifunction knobs 1–8. Controlling another set of eight channels in the OVERVIEW screen You can retain channels or DCA groups controlled by the faders, [ON] keys, meters, [CUE] keys and [SEL] keys of the Centralogic section, and switch to another group of eight channels for control in the OVERVIEW screen. In this case, the multifunction knobs will control a different set of eight channels than the Centralogic section’s controls. 1. Press the Bank Select key for the channels or DCA group that you want to retain for the Centralogic section, and hold it down for two seconds or longer.

Connections Connections 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 CL series features 64 in/64 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 names that make sense to you. • Dante uses high accuracy network synchronization standards to achieve sample-accurate playback with extremely low latency and jitter. Four types of latency are offered by the CL series: 0.25 msec, 0.5 msec, 1.0 msec, and 5.0 msec. • Dante supports resilient redundant connections against unexpected network problems via primary and secondary networks. • Connecting a computer to Dante network 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. By taking advantage of these benefits, you can: skip any complicated procedures to automate connections and setups of Dante-enabled devices; remotely control I/O devices from a mixing console; or make multi-track recordings to a DAW, such as Nuendo, installed on a computer in the network. Visit the Audinate website for more details on Dante. http://www.audinate.com/ Additional 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 plan to connect or set up Dante-enabled devices (such as Dante-MY16-AUD) that do not feature CL native support, or if you wish to set up complicated signal routings on a Dante network. More information is posted on the following website. http://www.yamahaproaudio.com/ To run Dante Controller, a computer must feature a GbE-compatible Ethernet connector. Refer to the Dante Controller owner’s manual for details on Dante Controller. Connecting to I/O devices This section explains how to connect the CL series to I/O devices (such as RIO3224-D) in a daisy chain network and in a star network (redundant network). Before you make connections with I/O devices, perform the steps described in “Setting up the Dante network” (see page 40), and then turn off the power of the CL series unit. Daisy chain network A daisy chain is a wiring scheme in which multiple devices are connected together in sequence. In this way, 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, 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. Owner’s Manual 31 Connections ■ Connecting I/O devices to the CL series Make connections as shown below using the Dante connectors of the CL series and the I/O devices, and set the rotary switches and DIP switches of the I/O devices. 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 would increase communication stability relative to a daisy chain network. ■ Connecting I/O devices to the CL series Make connections as shown below using the Dante connectors of the CL series and the I/O devices, and set the rotary switches and DIP switches of the I/O devices.

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 usual to configure a redundant network so that even if an unexpected network problem occurs, communication can occur without affecting the audio. 32 PRIMARY 789A BC D BCD 789A SECONDARY 01 (ID#1) Rio3224-D (ID#1) EF 01 ■ Rotary switch and DIP switch settings of the I/O devices EF 23 789A BC D Rio3224-D (ID#2) Owner’s Manual Network switch SECONDARY Audio input/output connections Analog output connections CL series 45 6 23 ON ON EF 3456 789A 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 012 789A BCD 3456 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 EF (ID#2) Rio3224-D BC D BCD 789A 01 (ID#1) EF ■ Rotary switch and DIP switch settings of the I/O devices 012 Audio input/output connections Analog input connections CL series Monitor speakers Main speakers EF 23 789A BC D 45 6 To the OMNI OUT jacks on the CL series and the OUTPUT jacks on the Rio3224-D units, 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 41) in the Quick Guide section. The PHONES Out jack located on the front panel is for monitoring, which always enables you to monitor the monitoring source signal. By assigning the MONITOR OUT L/R/C channels to the desired output jacks, you can also monitor the same signal through external speakers. 01 Digital input/output connections Rio3224-D The INPUT jacks on the I/O devices and the OMNI IN jacks are used mainly to connect microphones or monaural line-level devices. NOTE In the default state, the OMNI IN jacks are not patched. To use the signals connected here as inputs, you will need to make patch settings. Use the DIGITAL OUT jack to send the CL’s internal signals to an external digital audio device. When the CL 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 1–3, you can add input/output jacks to the CL or connect speaker processor units. Refer to the Yamaha professional audio website for the most recent information on available I/O cards. http://www.yamahaproaudio.com/ Owner’s Manual 33 Connections Installing an option card Before you install I/O cards in slots 1–3, you must check the Yamaha website to determine whether the card is compatible with the CL series, and to verify the total number of Yamaha or third-party cards that can be installed in combination with that card. Yamaha website: http://www.yamahaproaudio.com/global/en/ To install an optional mini-YGDAI card, proceed as follows. 1. Make sure that the power is turned off. 2. Loosen the screws that hold the slot cover in place, and remove the slot cover. Keep the removed slot cover and screws in a safe place. Slot cover 3. Align the edges of the card with the guide rails inside the slot, and insert the card into the slot. Push the card all the way into the slot so that the connector at the end of the card is correctly inserted into the connector inside the slot. Card 34 Owner’s Manual 4. Use the screws included with the card to fasten the card in place. Malfunctions or incorrect operation may occur if the card is not fastened. Caution Before connecting a separately sold mini-YGDAI I/O card to the CL unit, you must turn off the power switches for the CL and the PW800W power supply. Failure to observe this will cause malfunction or electric shock. Setup Setup This section explains the setup required when starting up the CL series for the first time.

This problem will occur if the input signal status does not match the emphasis data. ❍ Could EQ be applied? 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? 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 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. Signal is delayed. ❍ Check whether the delay setting for each input channel and output port is set correctly. ❍ This can be adjusted in the SETUP screen. Signal level of a specific frequency is low. 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? ❍ Could the fader have been lowered if the send point is set to POST? ❍ 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. 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? ❍ Are the rotary switch and DIP switches on the I/O devices set correctly? ❍ Does the channel being controlled match the channel on the I/O device? Cannot control the CL unit from CL Editor. 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? Cannot transmit or receive MIDI data. ❍ Is the MIDI PORT selected correctly? ❍ Are the transmission and reception modes and channels selected correctly? ❍ Has an event corresponding to the particular Program Change message been specified? ❍ Is the computer connected to the unit’s Network jack correctly? ❍ Is the network setting of the CL unit specified correctly? ❍ For details on settings, refer to the CL Editor installation guide posted on our website. Cannot control the CL unit from CL StageMix. ❍ Is the WiFi setting in CL StageMix set correctly? ❍ Is the unit’s Network jack on the CL unit connected to the WiFi access point correctly? ❍ Is the network setting of the CL unit specified correctly? ❍ Refer to the CL 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 and not a malfunction. 54 Owner’s Manual Installing the MBCL meter bridge (option) 3. Tighten screws ‘A’ to secure the MBCL, Installing the MBCL meter bridge (option) starting with the upper two screws. 4.
