INPUT Jack (monaural)

These monaural input jacks are used to connect micro-

phones or musical instruments. Each input channel fea-

tures two types of jacks (INPUT A and INPUT B).

• INPUT A Jack

These are balanced XLR-3-31 type input jacks (1:

Ground; 2: Hot; 3: Cold).

• INPUT B Jack

These are TRS phone-jack type balanced inputs. (T:

Hot; R; Cold; S: Ground)

You can connect either balanced or unbalanced phone

plugs to these jacks.

NOTE

· Only one type of jack can be used at a time on a single

channel.

INSERT Jack

These jacks are located between the compressor and

equalizer of the corresponding monaural input channel.

The INSERT jacks are ideal for connecting devices such

as graphic equalizers or noise ﬁlters into the corre-

sponding channels. The INSERT jacks are TRS (tip,

ring, sleeve) phone jacks that carry both the send and

return signal (tip = send/out; ring = return/in; sleeve =

ground).

NOTE

· Patching external devices via an INSERT jack requires a

special insert cable such as illustrated below (insert

cable sold separately).

DIRECT OUT Jack

These are impedance balanced (page 19) phone-jack

type outputs. They output the signal that has passed

through the compressor.

NOTE

· If necessary, the signal that is output from the DIRECT

OUT jack can be changed to the signal immediately

before the channel fader (pre-fader) or the signal after

the channel fader (post-fader) by changing an internal

jumper. A fee will be charged for this modiﬁcation. For

details, contact to your Yamaha dealer listed at the end of

this manual.

INPUT Jacks (stereo)

These are stereo input jacks that connect line-level

instruments, such as a synthesizer. Each input channel

features two types of jacks (INPUT A and INPUT B).

• INPUT A Jacks

These are unbalanced phone-jack stereo line inputs.

• INPUT B Jacks

These are unbalanced stereo RCA pin-jack line inputs.

NOTE

· Only one type of jack can be used at a time on a single

channel.

+48V Switch/Indicator

This switch toggles phantom power on and off for a

monaural channel. When the switch is turned on, the

+48V indicator will light, and DC +48V phantom power

will be supplied to Pin 2 and 3 of the corresponding

XLR-type INPUT A jacks. Turn this switch on when using

a phantom-powered condenser microphone.

26 dB (PAD) Switch

When this switch is turned on, the input signal from the

INPUT jack of the monaural channel is attenuated by 26

dB. Turn the switch off ( ) if you’ve connected a

microphone or other device with a low input level to the

channel. Turn it on ( ) if you’ve connected a line-level

device.

GAIN Control

This adjusts the sensitivity of the input signal from the

INPUT jack. Monaural channels have a 26 dB switch

(

) that lets you change the range of this control. The

adjustable sensitivity range is as follows.

• Monaural channel

• Stereo channel

-34dB to +10dB

(Phase) Switch

Tur ning this switch on will invert the phase of the input

signal. Turn this switch on if you need to mix a phase-

reversed signal.

NOTE

· If you try to mix a phase-reversed signal, the signals will

interfere with each other, resulting in degraded sound

quality.

(High Pass Filter) Switch

This switch toggles the HPF on or off.

Tur ning this switch ON will apply a high-pass ﬁlter that

attenuates the signal below 80 Hz by a slope of 12 dB/

octave.

Monaural channels Stereo channels

• Be sure to leave this switch off if you do not need

phantom power.

•When turning phantom power on, be sure that only a

condenser microphone is connected to the INPUT A

jack of the monaural channel. Other devices may be

damaged if connected to phantom power. This precau-

tion does not apply to balanced dynamic microphones,

however, as these will not be affected by phantom

power.

•To avoid damage to speakers, be sure to turn off

ampliﬁers (or powered speakers) before turning this

switch on or off. It’s also a good idea to turn the mixer’s

output controls - STEREO OUT master fader and

GROUP OUT faders - all the way down. If you omit this

precaution, you may damage your hearing or your

equipment.

Controls and Functions

Owner’s Manual

COMP Control/Indicator

Adjusts the amount of compression applied to the chan-

nel. As the COMP knob is turned to the right the com-

pression ratio increases while the output gain is

automatically adjusted accordingly. The result is

smoother, more even dynamics because louder signals

are attenuated while the overall level is boosted. The

COMP indicator will light when the compressor oper-

ates.

NOTE

·Avoid setting the compression too high, as the higher

average output level that results may lead to feedback.

A EQ (Equalizer): HIGH, HI-MID, LO-MID, LOW

This is a four-band equalizer, providing adjustments for

four frequency bands (HIGH, HI-MID, LO-MID, LOW).

Setting the gain control to the “▼” position produces a

ﬂat response in the corresponding band. Turning the

gain control to the right boosts the corresponding fre-

quency band, while turning to the left attenuates the

band. The HI-MID and LO-MID bands of monaural

channels provide a frequency control that lets you

adjust the center frequency.

The following table shows the EQ type, frequency, and

maximum cut/boost for each of the bands.

Monaural channel

Stereo channel

B EQ ON Switch

Switches the equalizer on or off.

C AUX Controls (1–8)

These adjust the level of the signals sent from the input

channel to AUX buses 1–8. These knobs should gener-

ally be set close to the “▼” (nominal) position. The sig-

nal adjusted by these controls is determined by the PRE

switch (D).

D PRE Switches

For each two buses, these switches select whether the

signal sent to the AUX buses will be taken after the

equalizer and before the channel fader (pre-fader), or

after the channel fader (post-fader). If this switch is ON,

the pre-fader signal is sent to the AUX bus, and will not

be affected by the channel fader.

NOTE

· If necessary, the pre-fader signal sent to the AUX buses

can be changed to the signal before the equalizer by

changing an internal jumper. A fee will be charged for

this modiﬁcation. In this case, the signal will be sent to

the AUX buses even if the input channel’s ON switch is

turned off. For details, contact to your Yamaha dealer

listed at the end of this manual.

E PAN Control

This control determines the stereo positioning of the

monaural channel signal on the buses.

Rotate the knob clockwise to pan the signal to the odd

channels of the GROUP buses and the ST L bus, and

counter-clockwise to pan the signal to the even chan-

nels of the GROUP buses and the ST R bus.

F BAL Control

Adjusts the left and right volume balance of stereo

channels. The signal input to the INPUT L jack will be

sent to the odd channels of the GROUP buses or to the

ST L bus, and the signal input to the INPUT R jack will

be sent to the even channels of the GROUP buses or to

the ST R bus.

G ON Switch/Indicator

When this switch is on, that channel will be enabled and

the indicator will light.

NOTE

· Even if the ON switch is off, you can turn on the PFL

switch (K) and monitor the signal before the channel

fader via the MONITOR OUT jacks and the PHONES

jack.

H Input Meter

Three LEDs indicate the input channel signal level after

the equalizer. The “-20” LED will light if the input signal

level reaches -20 dB, and the “0” LED will light at nomi-

nal level. The PEAK LED will light red when the input sig-

nal reaches 3 dB before clipping.

I Bus Assign Switches

These switches determine the bus(es) to which each

channel’s signal is sent. Turning a switch on will output

the signal to the corresponding bus.

• 1-2, 3-4, 5-6, 7-8 switches: Assign the channel’s

signal to the GROUP 1/2–7/8 buses.

• ST switch: Assigns the channel’s signal to the Stereo

L and R buses.

• MONO switch: Assigns the channel’s signal to the

MONO bus.

NOTE

· If you want the signal to be output to the corresponding

bus(es), turn on the channel ON switch (G).

J MUTE Switches (1–4)

These assign the channel’s mute on/off to switches 1–4.

If you turn on the MUTE master switches (1–4)

(page 15) located in the MUTE MASTER section, the

input channels whose corresponding MUTE switch is on

will be muted.

NOTE

·When a channel is muted, the ON indicator (G) will go

dark.

· Even if a channel is muted, you can turn on the PFL

switch (K) and monitor the signal before the channel

fader via the MONITOR OUT jacks and the PHONES

jack.

STEREO AUX RETURN Section

AUX RETURN Jacks

These are unbalanced phone-jack type line inputs. Sig-

nals input from these jacks can be sent to the GROUP 1/

2–7/8, ST L/R, MONO, and AUX 1–4 buses. To the

MONO and AUX 1–4 buses, a mix of the L/MONO and R

signal is sent. These jacks are typically used to receive

the signal returned from an external effect device

(reverb, delay, etc.).

NOTE

· These jacks can also be used as auxiliary stereo inputs.

· If you connect to the L/MONO jack only, the mixer will

recognize the signal as monaural and will send the identi-

cal signal to both the L/MONO and R jacks.

2 AUX Controls (1–4)

These adjust the level at which the signals from the AUX

RETURN jacks are sent (with L and R mixed) to the AUX

1–4 buses.

The “▼” position of the knob is nominal level (0 dB).

3 Bus Assign Switches

These switches determine the bus(es) to which the sig-

nal is received from the AUX RETURN jacks.

• 1-2, 3-4, 5-6, 7-8 switches: Send the signal to the

GROUP 1/2–7/8 buses.

• ST switch: Sends the signal to the ST L/R bus.

• MONO switch: Sends the signal to the MONO bus.

4 RETURN Control

Adjusts the level of the signal sent from the AUX

RETURN jacks to the GROUP 1/2–7/8, ST L/R, or MONO

buses.

The “▼” position of the knob is nominal level (0 dB).

NOTE

· The signals sent to AUX 1–4 are not affected by the

RETURN control.

5 PFL Switch/Indicator

When the PFL switch is on, the indicator will light and

the signal before the AUX controls and RETURN control

in the STEREO AUX RETURN section is output to the

MONITOR OUT and PHONES jacks for monitoring.

Troubleshooting

Owner’s Manual

Troubleshooting

Power doesn’t come on.

• Is the dedicated PW8 power supply properly plugged into

an appropriate AC power outlet?

• Is the dedicated PW8 power supply properly connected

using the included power supply cable?

The PW8 itself will not power-on unless it is correctly con-

nected via the included power cable.

• If the above checks do not identify the problem, call

Yamaha for service.

The sound of the bass drum will not move forward in

the mix.

• Could you be mixing a phase-reversed signal?

Try turning on the switch to reverse the phase. If you

are capturing the sound using multiple mics, phase rever-

sal may be causing cancellation.

How can I send the pre-EQ signal to an AUX bus for

monitoring?

• You can send the pre-EQ signal to an AUX bus by

changing an internal jumper setting. Turn the AUX PRE

switch on (pre-fader). In this case, the signal will be sent

to the AUX bus even if the input channel’s ON switch is

off.

How can I monitor the signal of a GROUP bus before I

send it to the ST L/R bus?

• With the GROUP section ON switch turned off, turning the

GROUP section AFL switch on will let you monitor the AFL

signal of the GROUP bus without sending it to the ST L/R

(and MONO) bus.

How can I send a compressed signal to the ST L/R

bus while sending the uncompressed signal to

DIRECT OUT jacks for recording?

• If you connect a compressor (external device) to the

INSERT jacks and apply compression to the signal being

sent to the ST L/R bus, the signal before the compressor

will be sent to the DIRECT OUT jacks. In this case, turn off

the IM8’s COMP control.

How can I send the TALKBACK signal only to the

intercom?

• In the TALKBACK section, turn on only MATRIX 1-2 (or

MATRIX 3-4) to send the output of MATRIX 1-2 (or

MATRIX 3-4) to the intercom.

How can I play background music from a portable

audio player?

•A standard mini-phone type 2TR IN jack is provided on

the front panel, allowing you to connect your portable

audio player via a mini-plug cable.

How can I assign the MC to the MONO bus and also

record it?

• Assign the MC’s input channel to the MONO bus, and use

the REC OUT section bus assign switch to select the

MONO bus.
