Yamaha announces the DM3 Series, a professional audio lineup that makes it easy for users to build a mix in any situation, empowering musical expression. The new, compact digital mixing consoles are versatile for various applications and ideal for the most passionate musicians serious about turning their music into a career.
There are two DM3 mixers in the Series – the DM3-D features Dante audio networking for quick and flexible connection to a wide range of compatible audio devices, and the DM3 Standard without Dante. Other than Dante provision, the features on both models are identical, highlighting 16 mono, one stereo and two FX Return input mixing channels, plus six Mix Send, two FX Send, one stereo and two matrix output mixing channels.
As the new standard in compact mixers, the DM3 Series offers up to 96kHz sound quality, powerful features, a fast, simple setup and ease of operation in an ultra-compact chassis. The supremely portable mixers feature a combination unmatched by any other mixing console of this size.
Offering low latency and two high-quality processors featuring 18 types of effects, a simple, intuitive user interface is centered around a large, 9″ screen with multi-touch control. Though small but thoughtful features can choose from multiple languages for channel names (using the DM3 Editor or DM3StageMix applications) displayed on the user’s choice of a light or dark background, making the DM3 Series easy to use any space, lighting conditions and by users of different nationalities.
With custom fader banks and MonitorMix support for personal monitor mixing, it has various live sound applications, from simple presentations and conferences to live bands and multi-performer events. The DM3 is also ideal as a sub-mixer for a Dante-compatible main console.
“Whether performing live onstage or streaming online, it just makes sense to trust a company that lives and breathes music to ensure every note is heard as intended,” says Preston Gray, director of marketing for professional audio at Yamaha Corporation of America.
The DM3 Series is a portable, full-specification music production tool that covers all the bases for recording and editing needs, thanks to an 18-in/18-out USB audio interface and DAW Remote functionality.
