Always follow the basic precautions listed below to avoid the possibility of physical injury to you or others, or
damage to the device or other property. These precautions include, but are not limited to, the following:
Remove the electric plug from the outlet when the device is not to be used
for extended periods of time, or during electrical storms.
When removing the electric plug from the device or an outlet, always hold
the plug itself and not the cord. Pulling by the cord can damage it.
Before moving the device, remove all connected cables.
• When setting up the device, make sure that the AC outlet you are using is
easily accessible. If some trouble or malfunction occurs, immediately turn
off the power switch and disconnect the plug from the outlet. Even when
the power switch is turned off, electricity is still flowing to the product at
the minimum level. When you are not using the product for a long time,
make sure to unplug the power cord from the wall AC outlet.
•Avoid setting all equalizer controls and faders to their maximum.
Depending on the condition of the connected devices, doing so may cause
feedback and may damage the speakers.
Do not expose the device to excessive dust or vibrations, or extreme cold
or heat (such as in direct sunlight, near a heater, or in a car during the day)

Do not block the vents. This device has ventilation holes at the front and
rear to prevent the internal temperature from rising too high. In particular,
do not place the device on its side or upside down, or place it in any
poorly-ventilated location, such as a bookcase or closet.
Do not use the device in the vicinity of a TV, radio, stereo equipment,
mobile phone, or other electric devices. Otherwise, the device, TV, or radio
may generate noise.
Before connecting the device to other devices, turn off the power for all
devices. Before turning the power on or off for all devices, set all volume
levels to minimum.
Be sure to connect to a properly grounded power source. A ground screw
terminal is provided on the rear panel for safely grounding the device and
preventing electrical shock.
Remove the power plug from the AC outlet when cleaning the device.
Do not insert your fingers or hand in any gaps or openings on the device
(vents, ports, etc.).
Condensation can occur in the device due to rapid, drastic changes in
ambient temperature—when the device is moved from one location to
another, or air conditioning is turned on or off, for example. Using the
device while condensation is present can cause damage. If there is reason
to believe that condensation might have occurred, leave the device for
several hours without turning on the power until the condensation has
completely dried out.
•Avoid inserting or dropping foreign objects (paper, plastic, metal, etc.)
into any gaps or openings on the device (vents, ports, etc.) If this
happens, turn off the power immediately and unplug the power cord from
the AC outlet. Then have the device inspected by qualified Yamaha service
personnel.
Do not use the device or headphones for a long period of time at a high or
uncomfortable volume level, since this can cause permanent hearing loss.
If you experience any hearing loss or ringing in the ears, consult a
physician.
Do not rest your weight on the device or place heavy objects on it, and
avoid use excessive force on the buttons, switches or connectors.
This device has a built-in backup battery that maintains data in internal
memory even when the device’s power is switched off. The backup battery
will eventually become depleted, however, and when that happens the
contents of the internal memory will be lost.* To prevent loss of data be sure
to replace the backup battery before it becomes fully depleted. When the
remaining capacity of the backup battery becomes so low that it needs to be
replaced a “Low Battery” or “No Battery” message will appear on the display
during operation or when the device is powered on. If either of these
messages appears do not turn off the power and immediately transfer any
data you want to save to a computer or other external storage device, then
have qualified Yamaha service personnel replace the backup battery. The
average life of the internal backup battery is approximately 5 years,
depending on operating conditions.
* Data items maintained in the internal memory by the backup battery are as
follows:
Current scene parameters and number.
Device parameters (SLOT, HA, UTILITY, Master Mute/Level, etc.).
Event log.
Data items other than those described above are stored in memory that does
not require backup power, and will be retained even if the backup battery
fails.
Do not turn the [POWER] switch on and off repeatedly and rapidly. Be sure to wait six seconds or more between turning the power to the unit off and then on.
Always turn the power off when the device is not in use.
The performance of components with moving contacts, such as switches, volume controls, and connectors, deteriorates over time. Consult qualified Yamaha service
personnel about replacing defective components.

owner’s manual that came with the Control Panel, as well as the
DME Designer Owner’s Manual.
Be sure to turn all devices OFF before connecting AC
mains power.
To prevent the initial power-on surge from generating a
large noise spike or damaging your speaker system, turn
the devices on in the following order: audio sources,
mixer (such as M7CL or PM5D), DME64N/24N, and
finally power amplifiers.
Reverse this order when turning power off.
NOTE
The DME64N/24N remembers scene settings when you turn
off the power.
When you turn on the power to the DME64N/24N, it will
start up with the same scene settings.
You can set up the DME64N/24N so that at the startup it will
recall the scene selected before you turned off the power to the
device. (page 49)
Do NOT turn off the power to the DME64N/24N
while it is receiving data from DME Designer or while it
is being manipulated from an external device. Otherwise,
a malfunction may occur.
Even when the power switch is turned off, electricity is
still flowing to the product all the minimum level.When
you are not using the product for a long time, make sure
to unplug the power cord from the wall AC outlet.

Differences between DME64N/24N
DME64N/DME24N Owner’s Manual
9
Differences between DME64N/24N
The DME64N has four I/O card slots, while the DME24N has one I/O card slot and eight channels of built-
in analog audio I/O.
A single I/O card can handle up to 16 channels of audio I/O, so the DME64N can handle a maximum of 64
audio I/O channels. The DME24N can handle up to 24 audio I/O channels.
The DME64N has approximately double the DSP processing power of the DME24N.
DME64N/24N Features
In addition to basic mixing and matrix output functions, the DME64N/24N includes a equalizers, compressors,
delay, etc. – that can be patched together via DME Designer to configure just about any audio system you need.
Audio System Network
Multiple DME series units that are interconnected in a network via Ethernet function as a single audio system.
In a DME audio system, a group of the same models that can be operated in sync is called a “device group;”
audio processing divisions that accommodate multiple device groups are called “zones;” and the entire area ser-
viced by the acoustic system is called an “area.”
Each device group always includes one DME series unit that functions as the “group master” and controls all
other DME series units in the same device group.
If a computer is connected to the network, you can use the computer to control an entire device group via the
group master.
Glossary for the DME64N/24N
This section explains terminology specific to the DME64N/24N.
Components and parameters
The individual audio processing modules (equalizers, compressors, etc.) are called “components.”
External head amplifier control modules are also available as components.
Changing the parameters of components enables control over the operation of the components.
Configuration
A “configuration” is a complete set of components for constructing an audio system.
Each configuration determines the audio function(s) of the corresponding DME64N/24N unit.
All parameter sets included with each component in a configuration are called “preset parameters.”
One DME64N/24N unit has a number of configurations, and a configuration has a number of preset parame-
ters.
User Defined buttons
Assigning parameters to be User Defined Buttons enables you to control the device from the ICP1 and the
DME64N/DME24N.
Refer to the DME Designer Owner’s Manual for details.

Scene
A combination of all configuration and preset parameters is called a “scene.”
Scenes can be recalled from an ICP1, GPI device, other external controllers, DME64N/DME24N, or comput-
er.
Up to 999 scenes can be stored for each device group.

Introduction to the DME64N/24N
Signal Types
DME64N/DME24N Owner’s Manual
11
Signal Types
DME64N/24N audio system signals can be broadly categorized as follows.
1 Audio
The DME64N/24N will be required to send and receive audio signals to and from other DME series units as
well as other audio equipment.
Audio signal transmission and reception will occur primarily via the [INPUT] and [OUTPUT] connectors on
the DME24N.
2 Control signals within a device group
Device group control signals control all DME series devices in the group.
There are two types of device group control signals, as follows:
Control signals between the computer and the group master DME series unit
Control signals between the group master DME series unit and the other DME series
units
You can use the DME Designer application to control the entire device group, such as sending components to
the devices and setting the parameters as required.
3 Control signals between devices outside the device group
These signals provide communication and control between individual devices.
Included in this category are MIDI messages transferred between [USB] connectors, GPI signals transferred be-
tween [GPI] connectors, and remote head amp control signals handled via the [REMOTE] connector.

About DME Designer
DME Designer software enables you to integrate, configure, and control the DME series system from a con-
nected computer.
You can build the DME series audio system using graphic blocks in DME Designer that are displayed on the
computer monitor.
The DME series settings, configuration, and parameter data are transferred from the computer to the DME se-
ries unit via the USB or Ethernet connection.
DME series settings, configuration, and parameter data is sent via USB or Ethernet to the connected DME se-
ries unit. After the data is transmitted, you can disconnect the DME series unit from the computer and use it
as an independent processor.
You can also connect it to a computer and control it in realtime from DME Designer.
If multiple DME series units are connected in the network, DME Designer enables you to build a configuration
that includes those units.
Please download the DME Designer application, driver, DME setup manual, and DME Designer Owner’s
Manual at the following URL: http://www.yamahaproaudio.com/
Refer to the “Connecting to a Computer” (page 22) for more information on connecting a computer to the
DME64N/24N. For details on how to install DME Designer and the drivers that are required for connection,
refer to the “DME Setup Manual.”
