Yamaha DM3-D Digital Mixing Console with Dante
The Yamaha DM3-D is a compact 22-channel digital mixing console with Dante, 16 analog inputs, and 8 analog outputs. It weighs 14.3 lb and samples at up to 96 kHz.
Its two etherCON ports carry 16 channels of Dante in each direction, so the console pairs with a Tio1608-D2 I/O rack or a second DM3-D, which can then handle a separate mix for streaming. Multitrack recording works over USB to a computer or through Dante Virtual Soundcard, which is sold separately, and a USB drive records two tracks. In the studio, the faders and buttons work as a DAW controller, and the console comes with download access to Cubase AI and VST Rack Elements.
A 9-inch touchscreen and one Touch and Turn knob manage most operations, with eight motorized channel faders and a main fader beside them. Two multi-effects processors offer 18 effect types, and more than 200 QuickPro Presets give input channels a tuned starting point for specific microphones and instruments, with output presets for speaker systems and in-ear monitors. 1-knob COMP and 1-knob EQ make the channel controls quick to use. A Guest login limits the operations open to an occasional user.
DM3 Editor sets the console up from a Windows or Mac computer before the show, and DM3 StageMix controls it from an iPad on stage. MonitorMix lets each performer set a personal monitor mix on an iOS or Android device. ProVisionaire Control and Touch build custom control panels, and the console also takes OSC over Ethernet and MIDI over USB. From firmware version 3, Automix on input channels 1 through 8 reduces background noise and feedback for speech.
