| Parameter Import from DME-N unit |
All parameter settings on a connected DME-N unit can be imported to the DME Designer for inspection and further editing.
|
| New Parameter Link modesGlobal Link and Local Link |
Now you can select the mode that fits your applicationGlobal, for linking
several DME-Ns together, or Local, for linking with a single DME-N.
The procedures for executing parameter links have also been simplified.
|
| Analyze function |
This new feature checks the configuration for possible problems in
compiling settings and data to be transferred to connected DME-N units,
and conveniently allows for the compiling results to be done offline.
|
| Show Signal Delay and Auto Delay Compensation functions |
The Show Signal Delay function displays the delay introduced by each
component in the system and by each line of connection. Auto Delay
Compensation is provided to automatically cancel the effects of such delays in the system, and ensure optimum operation accuracy.
|
| File Backup |
All data on the DME-N unit can be transferred to computer for archive
purposes. The saved data is automatically encrypted for maximum
securityensuring that no unauthorized user can inspect or edit the data.
|
| Event Logger window |
This new window allows you to create a list of all event log data related to
your DME-N and the communication with the peripherals.

Yamaha's dedicated DME Designer software bundled with the DME64N or DME24N is used to program these units' powerful DSPs. By giving users the freedom to combine a broad spectrum of audio processing components, this software can produce audio configurations "made to order" for any and all applications.
Create configurations with drag-and-drop
Configurations combining and connecting components are created on DME Designer with a logical, straightforward graphic user interface similar to CAD applications. Its simple, yet advanced, operating techniques let users select components, connect lines and handle related tasks with drag-and-drop and other standard methods. What's more, DME Designer supports output of configuration data in dxf format importable to popular CAD software.
Central management of multiple mixing engines for more than 16 zone control
DME Designer can incorporate a total of 16 DME64N, DME24N and ICP1 units in a single zone, and open more than 16 zone windows simultaneously. You can store/recall each zone set-up as a scene containing multiple DME64N, DME24N and ICP1s, with individual parameter values for each DSP component, combined with one of 16*1 configurations memorable on each DME unit, and word clock setup. You can store/recall a maximum of 999 scenes*2. Created Scene can be uploaded to the DME unit for operation using the DME alone without the connection of a PC.

DME Designer is designed with 3 primary windows. The Main Window enables users to perform operations such as scene recall and preference settings. The Designer Window is used to create configurations for each DME64N, DME24N and ICP1. And the Component Window provides an advanced graphic user interface to edit individual DSP components and make detailed component settings. Each component includes a Snap Shot feature capable of temporary storage of up to 4 sets of component parameters. Simply clicking these sets — A, B, C or D — during editing offers users a fast, efficient means of comparing the sound produced by each.

| Diverse array of built-in components |

The DME64N and DME24N provide support for a wide range of sound control components and effects. Crossover Processor, Crossover, Delay, Compander, Compressor, De Esser, Ducker, Expander, Gate, GEQ and PEQ are available for use over a wide range of applications. High-precision filtering is supported by band pass, high pass, low pass and notch filters, while components like the 64 X 64 Matrix facilitates internal sound mixing. The Delay Matrix Mixer allows users to set delay plus volume for each point. As a result, the matrix can be used to perform speaker alignment. Also included are Pan, Pan-LCR, Surround Processor, Router to Meter, Oscillator and Fader components.

Gain Trim allows remote operation of the AD8HR AD converter with a preamp from the DME64N or DME24N. Both units enable control of AD8HR mic pre-amps in 1dB steps, high-pass filters and phantom power supply ON/OFF switching.
GEQ

Features a variety of equalizers, including the graphic equalizer (mono/stereo 7, 15 and 31 band) and parametric equalizer (mono/stereo 2, 3, 4, 6 and 8 band). The Snap Shot feature — that allows users to store 4 parameter sets for on-demand comparative listening — is particularly effective in making acoustic adjustments with equalizers.

The Matrix Mixer allows large-scale matrix mixing of up to 64X64. For the Delay Matrix Mixer, the delay value can be set in addition to the level at each point for time alignment and level setting using a single component.
| Surround 3-1, 5.1 and 6.1 |
These components support 3-1, 5.1 and 6.1 surround processing.
|
The effects built into the DME64N and DME24N are equivalent to those of Yamahas acclaimed SPX2000 Professional Multi-Effect Processor. This feature will enjoy widespread use in applications from live mixing to music production.

|
This component allows playback of wav format audio files. Memory size is 1 minute or more for 44.1kHz audio data (mono). (Playback time differs depending on configuration data size.)
|
|
Event Scheduler lets users set event schedules with its calendar and timer functions, and triggers other components like the WAV File Player and GPI transmission, which can be used to control external devices.
|
| User Component feature for unrestricted component combinations |
User Control
|
The User Component feature lets users create original components by combining existing components. Defining a combination of frequently used components as a user component makes creating configurations faster, easier and more efficient. Combining this feature with the User Control Function lets system designers allow the operation of selected components only. In combination with the Security setting function, system designers can protect any parameters they do not want opened or operated by end users.
User Control feature for gathering multiple component controllers
System integrators can create their own USER Control Panels by selecting desired controllers from each component. These controllers can be selected by drag-and-drop or copy-and-paste. User Control offers added user convenience in tasks like gathering frequently used controllers and selecting only parameters edited by end users.
