Fast flexible, full-spec setup

Transporting, unloading, and setting up a sound reinforcement system at a venue can be one of the most laborious tasks a sound engineer undertakes. Not so with the DM3 Series which requires less space and time for configuration and physical setup thanks to flexible patching along with Quick Pro Presets, Editor and StageMix software, and Dante compatibility (DM3 model only), minimizing system setup and configuration time considerably. Combining all this with 6 mix + 2 matrix + 2 effects processors, the DM3 Series are powerful, compact, sturdy consoles that you can take anywhere.

Yamaha Digital Mixing Console DM3 Series is a lightweight construction for supreme portability

Thanks to precise structural design and material selection, the DM3 Series combines a light weight of only 6.5 kg with a robust housing that can stand up to the rigors of touring.

Yamaha’s most compact Dante-compatible mixer, the DM3 delivers high-quality 96kHz sound using 16 analog inputs and eight outputs with low latency, and matches perfectly with the Tio1608-D I/O Rack for simpler, faster system setup.

*There are two models in the DM3 Series, the Dante equipped DM3 and the DM3 Standard, which does not feature Dante.

The Yamaha R&D team has worked with well-respected engineers and major manufacturers such as Audio-Technica, FitEar, Sennheiser, Shure, Ultimate Ears and Westone Laboratories to develop a selection of optimized QuickPro Presets™ for a wide variety of microphones and output equipment. With these practical presets even the novice engineer can get very close to the ideal sound, while experienced engineers will appreciate the significant time savings they offer. We prepared more than 200 presets for input channels, covering everything from vocals to drum sets all precisely tuned using a wide range of actual microphones and instruments. For output channels we developed presets for a variety of speaker systems and in-ear monitors such as Ultimate Ears with several variations to match different environments and room sizes. All of these can be used as-is when time is tight, but they are also great starting points for manual fine tuning. Setups created from the presets or from scratch can also be saved as additional presets.

Scene Presets are available for a variety of applications that use the DM3 Series for mixing, making setup quick and easy.

Real world engineers in our R&D group created these presets to increase speed of setup and allow more time for minor adjustments and rehearsal.

A wide range of applications help users respond as the situation demands, including DM3 Editor to complete settings in advance well before the performance, DM3 StageMix to remotely control the DM3 Series from onstage, and MonitorMix, which allows each performer to adjust their own monitor.

Professional-quality live streaming has never been easier

Live streaming brings with it unique technical demands that are often a challenge to accommodate without additional outboard gear and the space it requires.

The DM3 Series comes equipped with a USB connection that lets you go live in an instant, paired with a condensed suite of features such as matrices, flexible patching, and factory presets that are aimed specifically at making live streaming seamless and trouble-free. The compact design also makes the DM3 Series ideally suited to multi-console configurations where it would take on a live-streaming role while the other console is used for on-site mixing.

The DM3 Series condenses features needed for streaming inside a compact housing. Units are equipped with abundant analog I/O and USB terminals, making it possible to input audio to the DM3 Series and transmit the mixed audio directly to a computer with streaming software launched. With stereo and matrices, audio routing provides a high degree of freedom and allows mixing of audio for on-site and streaming use separately.

In addition, the Dante-equipped DM3* is ideal for standalone operation as well as for use as part of a larger streaming system featuring multiple consoles. For example, using two DM3 units allows the engineer to input the audio transmitted by Dante for on-site and streaming, or use two different mixes for these. The compact housing makes it the ideal console where space is limited, or for use in system expansion.

*The DM3 Standard is a non-Dante model, while the DM3 is a Dante-compatible model.

The DM3 Series inputs and outputs allow patches to be freely changed with ease. These consoles can handle minor modifications to the system flexibly to suit any location, which is extremely useful in situations where teams are divided by role.

Comprehensive recording and editing functions in a compact body

A supremely portable, full-spec music production tool, the DM3 Series covers all the bases for your live recording and home editing needs. The DAW Remote function allows you to use a range of devices to control your mix and recording from anywhere in a live venue or recording environment, then take the results home for editing at your leisure. The recorded performances can be stored directly on a USB stick, on a PC connected via USB to HOST, or on a separate Dante-compatible device (DM3 only), and edited with the bundled Cubase AI software or the DAW suite of your choice.

DM3 Series Consoles allow monitor levels to be controlled with faders. Access is simple and easy, for smoother, more accurate checking of mix balances. You can also use the customer fader function to assign monitor level control for smoother, more accurate mixes, or use User Defined Keys to adjust the volume separately by switching the source.

Your space, your settings, your language

With each different work environment comes a new range of challenges that place different demands on a console and on users themselves.

The design of DM3 Series Consoles was created with this in mind, with a customizable interface that can be tailored to match user requirements and experience levels. For example, channel names can be displayed in different languages, and operations can be restricted by user account, while ProVisionaire Touch and Control offers the user a control panel that can be optimized for a variety of applications.

*ProVisionaire will support the DM3 series in future updates.

The DM3 Series is designed to be operated by a wide range of people, from professional engineers to those who rarely use a console, and its appearance varies from user to user. For example, logging in as Guest simplifies use by limiting the operations available.

DM3 Series Consoles are equipped with a wealth of user support and time-saving features, such as the GainFinder™ feature that provides visual support for gain settings, and 1-knob COMP™ & 1-knob EQ™, which allows multiple parameters to be controlled with a single knob. In addition, channel names are Unicode-capable and can be input in various languages, making the DM3 Series highly effective and user-friendly mixers that are especially useful for applications when the console is used by multiple users of varying languages and skill levels.*

The optional RK-DM3 allows for rack mounting and flexible installation.

*Input for channel names in languages other than English can be performed using DM3 Editor or DM3 StageMix.
